Welcome to the One Voice Awards, UK, 2025!

The following rules apply to the One Voice Awards UK 2025:

1. Candidates may submit nominations for up to 8 of the 31 award categories. You do not have to submit all 8, but 8 entries is the maximum amount per voice artist. You may also only submit one entry per category.
2. Please ensure that nominations are submitted anonymously - no slating. This will assist in anonymity to the judging panel. Please note that any entries submitted that are not anonymous will automatically be rejected regardless of quality!
3. If a video submission is made via YouTube or Vimeo, please ensure that the YouTube/Vimeo channel does NOT have the nominee's name on it. This would mean that the submission is not anonymous, and will be rejected.
4. Duration of Submitted Clips: Clips should be a maximum of 2 minutes long, unless you are submitting a Youtube/Vimeo video where you are in the middle of a larger performance, and in which case you must tell us the timings of your performance in the accompanying notes. The audio-upload filesize limit is 5mb
5. * - All awards are open to residents of the UK only (with a permanent address) or British voice artists working abroad who can prove they have a British passport at the time of voting. The only exception to this is the international categories - ** - which are open to everyone except UK residents. Our system will automatically determine which categories you may submit to.
6. The date range of performances that may be submitted for consideration is 1st Jan 2024 - 31st Dec 2024
7. No direct (permanent) employees or their family members of Gravy For The Brain Ltd may submit themselves for award consideration. Contract staff are excluded and may enter.
8. Entries for "Best Children's Voiceover Performance (Under 18)" must be submitted by the parent/guardian or agent of the minor. Evidence of the minor's age will be required for shortlisted candidates. NB: This category is NOT for adults imitating children's voices, but for actors aged under 18 only (at the time of recording).
9. Best Newcomer Award. The Applicant must not have had any paid (professional) voiceover/voice acting work before Jan 1st 2024.
10. Awards listed as Male awards must only be entered by actors who identify as male, and Female awards must only be entered by actors who identify as female. Award categories for those who identify as non-binary must identify as neither male nor female.
11. The judges decision on voting is final and will be presented at the One Voice Awards UK 2025.
12. With the exception of the Demo Reel categories, demo reels are not allowed to be entered - entries must consist of actual work in that category, recorded, created or broadcast within the date-range. Any demo material will be removed from consideration
13. You may not re-submit work that you have submitted from previous years which are updates of the originals - for example, re-tagged adverts.
14. For the avoidance of doubt, you may only enter one set of One Voice Awards per year. For example, you may not enter into the One Voice Awards UK (any category) and also the One Voice Awards USA (International category) in the same year.
15. Do not slate your entry or write any additional notes that display your name. FYl however, your actual (account) name in Casting Tools, and the filename of anything you upload will be automatically redacted, and so may contain your name without breaking the anonymity rules.
16. Please do not cheat or break any of these rules. If candidates are found to be cheating, or have cheated, they will be disqualified and if this is after the event, may have their award revoked!
