Thai voice actor websites, tones and polite endings right.
Thai has five tones and polite endings that differ by speaker. Your site should show a read that handles both well.
What a producer listens for.
What matters when someone is casting Thai voice actors, and how the site answers it.
Tone accuracy
A short sample with minimal pairs proves control.
Polite endings
Male and female speakers use different endings. State which you use.
Register

What your site adds.
Scripts without spaces
Thai text has no spaces between words, so scripts are easy to misread. A transcript with the phrasing marked shows how you chunk a line.
Particles that change the tone
Endings such as ครับ and ค่ะ colour a line. Say which you use and show a read where they are handled with care.
Questions, answered.
Something else? Ask it when you request a quote.
Do male and female voices need different samples?
The polite endings differ by speaker, so scripts are written for one or the other. Show the ones that fit you.
How do I show tone accuracy?
Include a line with words that differ only by tone, and put the Thai script beside it.
Is Bangkok Thai the default?
Usually yes for broadcast. A northern or southern voice is a character choice and should be a labelled sample.
