English Conversation Recording Study (with Paid Screener Session)

We are building a pool of reliable participants for an ongoing, paid voice recording project involving natural English conversations. You will be matched with another participant and hold a guided, role-based conversation based on an everyday scenario.

This is not a scripted reading task. Before each session you receive a short brief describing your role, the situation, and your conversation goals. Some details may be visible only to you. You then speak naturally, respond in real time, and work through the situation in your own words. No acting or voice-over experience is required.

Your participation will include:

• A 15-minute paid screener session if it passes review
• If you pass the screener, you will join our ongoing recording program
• Record on an online platform from a quiet, private room using wired headphones
• Attend paired sessions scheduled in advance

You must:

• Be 18 years or older
• Be comfortable speaking US English in a natural conversation
• Be comfortable having your voice recorded
• Use a laptop or desktop computer for all recording sessions
• Use headphones during recording sessions
• Have a stable internet connection
• Record from a quiet, private indoor room
• Be able to remain in that room without interruptions for at least 20 minutes
• Be able to attend scheduled recording sessions with another participant

Phones and tablets cannot be used for recording.
