Why do I have to sign an NDA?

Yes, if asked, you should sign and honor your NDA's.


Today. I wanna talk about NDAs, even though I'm not supposed to. Get it.


Hey guys, have you ever had to sign an NDA? Do you know what an NDA is? Well, first of all, a quick definition, non-disclosure agreement. Typically we are given NDAs when we submit our auditions and those NDA's are very, very important. You need to make sure that you respect and understand the NDA and understand that an NDA is usually constructed so that a company can protect its product. That's you know, going to be coming out. So you certainly, if you had a company and you were developing this, this awesome secret product, like a video game or an animation, or, you know, whatever, it might be, a new product that you're gonna launch in a commercial. You don't wanna have people talking about it before it's been released, because that could ruin your brand. It could ruin the launch of your product, of which, you know, you as a voice actor, you don't really have any. Obligation or ownership of that company's product to actually talk about it before it's been launched.


It's very common in the voiceover business, to have to sign an NDA, (Non-disclosure agreement) when you have an audition. Many companies have private information that you'll be privy to, that if released, could harm the release or brand. But why do you have to go through all this formality? Well, let's talk about it.
