This project involves recording voices from the script below to simulate a conversation in the above videos / audio materials. You are required to read the script clearly in Received Pronunciation (British). The speed is usually a bit slower than normal conversation. You also need to use tones whenever necessary to make it sound casual and real. Please review the above materials to make sure you fully understand the requirement.
this task requires a mature speaker, preferably 35+, male or female are both acceptable.
The recording is meant to be played in an Internet browser. There's no cut-throat requirement on clarity and quality. 44khz 16bit mono wave will do. It has to be professionally recorded, which means the background noise must be very low.
The script has been proofread. But if you discover any irregularities, you may modify it so that it sounds natural. When you do, please make a mark.
When applying for the job, please provide a sample recording of at least 5 questions from the script. Thank you.

Please see the attachment. Read only questions with a numeric index in the beginning. In this batch, there are 3113 words in 321 sentences. We wish the cost is given on a per (hundred) word basis, because we are not quite sure about the length of this material yet.
