By providing any content to this web site once you are an approved voice: (a) you agree to grant The Voice Realm a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive right and license (including any moral rights or other necessary rights.) to use, display, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, distribute, perform, promote, archive, translate, and to create derivative works and compilations, in whole or in part to attract new clients to the website and any websites that The Voice Realm LLC own or operate.

8. Third-party services
Goods and services of third parties may be advertised and/or may be made available on or through this web site. Representations made regarding products and services provided by third parties will be governed by the policies and representations made by these third parties. You must not partake in any business dealings with advertisers after being introduced by The Voice Realm, by circumnavigating the site, or any other means of contact for a period of one year of the initial job booking or auditions. Voice talent may not contact any client to solicit work that they were made aware of though the websites usage. You must not reveal any contact details to any client by any means. Clients may only reveal contact details after paying and hiring a voice talent purely for the means of giving vocal direction for the recording. You agree that all forms of communication between the advertiser and voice artist may be monitored for infringement of this, including but not limited to instant messaging, emails, audio files, pdf, word documents, or any type of digital file.

9. Client and Voice Artist usage of the site

Clients engage the recording services of voice over artists through the website. Any audio recordings made through the 'audition feature' must never be used for anything other than deciding if a voice is suited to a particular voice recording. These 'audition recordings' must never be used without remuneration to artist and The Voice Realm. NY state clients/advertisers must pay an additional 8.875% tax on all transactions. AFTRA and SAG projects are charged at scale rate +10% commissions. Each voice artist must include an image of themselves in their profile. Voice artists agree not use full names in images, logos, messages, bios or contained within audio files or file-names or anywhere on the site except within their personal settings and for payment purposes. The only language, dialect, accents to be selected are mother tongue unless approved by The Voice Realm in rare circumstances.

Voice talent agree that if a client books them directly from their demo, for a job of less than 250 words and without an audition, that this would be classified as an unpaid audition. Only once the client requests a second file, or the job is marked as completed by client, or 14 days pass with no further communication from the client side, is this confirmed as a paid booking. This forms part of the 'Satisfaction Guarantee'. Jobs that require multiple recording sessions over a period of time must be complete in sessions of 15 minutes of finished audio length or more. For each hiring, a client can ask for two additional complete re-records of a script of less than 750 words. To avoid re-records, the voice actor should provide a couple of small samples of varying styles, for the client to choose from before recording any script in full. If after three recordings (of less than 5 minutes) the client is still not satisfied, a 50% re-record fee applies for entire script records, or applicable revision fees. Recordings over 1,500 words attract a 50% re-record fee once the first recording is completed and delivered to the client with no live direction given. Re-recordings of individual lines are charged at applicable 'revision rates'. Recordings using live direction where the clients listens in on the session incur a 50% of the original booking fee for each additional session. Audio supplied to clients must be of broadcast quality. If both client and The Voice Realm agree that audio is sub-standard, a re-record is first offered, and then an entire refund. If client and The Voice Realm do not agree that the audio is sub-standard, then a 50% refund is applied after a non-usage document is signed confirming the audio will never be used, and must be destroyed.

Recordings with multiple uses will be billed at the highest rate of all applicable uses, then 50% of the additional applicable usage fees. For example, if a recording will be used online and for non broadcast, the online (internet only) rate would be selected, and the client would be manually billed 50% of the non-broadcast fee if the same audio recording is used. If a seperate recording is needed, full rates apply for each usage item.

Re-recordings needed because the client did not supply pronnunciations before talent records, incur revision fees for those lines that need to be recorded.

All jobs must be completed through the website. The Voice Realm reserves the right to remove any voice artist or client at any time from accessing the site without reason. The Voice Realm may, at our discretion, remove any messages in which a voice talent or client is trying to initiate external contact outside of the site before the voice talent is hired through the site. The Voice Realm is not responsible for compensation to any artist’s agent, manager, or any other legal representative of the artist for jobs booked through the site.  Each individual voice artist reserves the right to supply audio files of below broadcast quality until the client approve and pays for the final file to be delivered. Voice talent agree to record for all rates set forth on the voice over rate page at https://www.thevoicerealm.com/voice-over-rates.php

Auditions, Casting Notices and Paid Jobs will be automatically closed after 14 days of no activity from the client side and marked as completed. This is overridden if the job is still not closed within 30 days of the original date of booking. Any further recordings will then be charged as 'revisions' as set out on the rate page.

All prices/rates listed on the rate page are for non-union voice over work. Rates are buyout (voice talent grant the right to use their voice and recordings supplied in perpetuity only for the categories billed) except for radio and TV broadcast which includes usage for one year from date of recording.  Buyout rates for indefinite and unlimited broadcast TV and/or radio use are double the applicable one year rate usage fees and any relevant loadings. Original session fees are not required to be re-billed if additional recordings are not required.

10. Subscription services (Voice Listing Fee) payments and commissions

If a voice talent purchases a subscription service, they agree to pay all charges, including but not limited to applicable taxes and fees for the use of additional features not included as part of your subscription service. You will be charged in accordance with the billing terms in effect at the time the fee or charge becomes payable. Any listing or subscription fees paid are non-refundable other day a 14 day cooling off period for brand new subscribers to trial the service. For a refund the voice artist must have completed their profile with demos and other information within the 14 days. The Voice Realm is not responsible for any fees or charges for receiving or initiating payments through PayPal or any discrepancies in currency conversion rates. Voice talent are independent contractors and must provide W-9 forms for tax purposes at the request of The Voice Realm. Voice talent agree that their profile and demos may appear on any domain/website that The Voice Realm own. The Voice Realm is not liable for any payments to the voice talent for extra negotiations they have made with a client (including but ot limited to revisions or production) if no pre-payment has been received. Voice talent should not provide any client with audio within a paid booking until notification has been given that pre-payment has been received.

Renewals are NOT automatic. The Voice Realm does not offer an automatic renewal service. To continue using the service a manual subscription must be made every 12 months. Being listed, paying a subscription or voice listing fee does not guarantee any work through the website.
