Strong Voiceover Artist Needed (Male or Female) For Documentary
Documentary Narrator — Feature-Length Film (Niagara Falls)
We're producing a feature-length documentary about Niagara Falls, New York — specifically, the structural economic imbalance between the world-famous destination and the struggling host city beside it. This is not a travel doc. It's an investigative, emotionally heavy film with a clear argument.
We need a narrator who can carry approximately 30–33 minutes of voiceover across the full runtime.
The tone:
Grave. Restrained. Unsentimental. The script builds from measured journalism in the first half to controlled moral weight in the final act, ending in a poetic monologue. The emotion should come from precision and truth, not from pushing. Think HBO documentary, not cable news. No announcer energy. No hype. No warmth-for-the-sake-of-warmth.
What we're looking for:
- Male or female — open to either, casting on quality and fit
- Deep comfort with long-form narration and pacing
- Ability to shift register from analytical (policy, tax structure, fiscal history) to emotional (grief, loss, civic mourning) without it feeling like two different reads
- Professional home studio or access to a treated recording environment
- Delivered as dry (no music/FX), edited, and cleaned WAV or AIFF files
Specs:
- 4,300 words total
- Approximately 30–33 minutes of finished audio at a measured pace
- Script is complete and will be provided upon hire
- Delivery segmented by sequence (we'll provide the breakdown)
To apply:
Please read some or all of the attached document so we can get the cadence and tone of your voice and see if it is right for this project.
Budget is negotiable for the right voice.
