Expression of Interest: Voice Over Artist– Darebin Public Arts Works Discovery Map

Expression of Interest: Voice Over Artist– Darebin Public Arts Works Discovery Map

FUSE Darebin is seeking expressions of interest from local artists to produce a voice over for the  Darebin Public Arts Works Discovery Map. We are wanting to further activate this wonderful public resource by making a recorded version of the artwork descriptions for all to enjoy. Could you be the voice of our discovery map?

 

Background

FUSE Darebin is City of Darebin’s brand-new multi-arts festival. Every Autumn and Spring, FUSE usually transforms Darebin into a dynamic hub of creativity, bringing artists, communities and audiences to our streets, parks, band rooms, theatres and galleries to immerse themselves in art, culture and creativity of all forms.

But, in light of the restrictions on public gatherings currently in place as a result of COVID-19, we have shifted our Spring 2020 festival program to focus on events that support local creatives and can be experienced within the parameters of physical distancing.

 

Project Brief

  • Produce and record a voice over of approximately 23 minutes in length
  • Recording needs to include short introduction, the 39 Public Artworks titles, descriptions and locations (script to be provided)
  • View the Darebin Public Artworks Map here 
  • Deliver final recording by deadline in MP3 or similar audio file format

 

Duties & Responsibilities

The voice over artist is responsible for:

  • Provision of all technical equipment required to produce the voice over work, ensuring a high-quality product.
  • Recording and supplying finished product by agreed timeline.

 

Fee

A fee of $750.00 (plus GST if applicable) will be paid to the voice over artist for this project.
