Host: Ahmed AlQotb, Casting Director at THE ARABIC VOICE™

Welcome to today’s episode of our podcast, where we explore the vibrant world of voice acting through the lens of the Society of Voice Arts and Sciences (SOVAS) and the Voice Arts® Awards. I’m Ahmed AlQotb, your host and casting director at THE ARABIC VOICE™, and I’m thrilled to share insights about this remarkable initiative.

The Birth of SOVAS

SOVAS was created as a groundbreaking response to the need for recognition in the voice acting industry. Known as the “Oscars® of voice acting,” the Voice Arts® Awards celebrate the artistic contributions of voice actors globally. This prestigious event honors both seasoned professionals and emerging talents, fostering diversity and excellence within our craft.

Global Impact

As the International Ambassador of SOVAS for Egypt and North Africa, I’ve seen firsthand the profound international impact this organization has had. With over 20 years of experience working with major clients like Apple and Interpol, I can attest to how SOVAS inspires voice artists to pursue their passion and refine their skills.

Empowering the Next Generation

At THE ARABIC VOICE™, we deliver culturally attuned productions across the MENA region, working with a talented team of native Arabic voice artists. Additionally, through my initiative El Hakawaaty, I focus on empowering emerging Arabic voice actors by providing training and mentorship. This commitment aligns seamlessly with SOVAS’s mission to uplift the voice acting community.

Conclusion

Join us as we celebrate the artistry and dedication of voice actors worldwide. The Voice Arts® Awards are not just about accolades; they represent the power of voice and its impact on our culture. Together, let’s inspire future generations of voice actors and continue to elevate the craft we cherish.
