15 and 30-Second Sample Script for a Talking Toy
Pete’s Toys
Voice Age:Child
Gender:Female/Male
Job description:Pete’s Toys is a toy manufacturing company that is about to release a new talking robot for children ages 5-7. The toy functions like a smart device and is able to answer questions from the user, sourcing the answer from the Internet.
Art Direction:The voice should sound childlike – how a 7-year-old child would sound. The voice should be friendly and fun. Although the toy interacts like a smart device, it functions at an approximate age of 7, so there are questions the toy will not know the answer to, and that’s okay!

I use different voices during the day naturally . Some are child sounding others different exaggerated ethnic groups like Irish and African. .my voices also have a spirit of humour and affection behind them. I also try to mimic different eras and film genres.
I have been doing voices since childhood wether replications of my favorite shows to different accents. I am a bit embarrassed to admit it but I talk to myself in different accents and genres. I entertain my family and friends often. Would love to put this to some financial use.
