From Words to Wealth Project: When Voice-over Artists Edit.
On February 21, 2024, the Faculty of Liberal Arts organized From Words to Wealth Project: When Voice-over Artists Edit. The event was held in Room 148, Sirividhaya Building, Faculty of Liberal Arts, Mahidol University, Salaya. The project was chaired by Pichanee Sotthiyothin, Ph.D., an instructor for the Bachelor of Arts program in Thai language with Mr. Worathon Chuthaban, the producer of the Thai PBS Podcast program, and Ms. Wanya Chaiyo, a professional voice-over artist, who has voiced over 100 characters and has more than one million followers on her social media account, as the honored guest speakers for the occasion.
The aim of this project is to allow students to apply their academic knowledge to create career opportunities and income as well as to foster a sense of community service among all participants by providing audio descriptions for the visually impaired. Students participating in the project will have the opportunity to record narrations, which will be provided to the underprivileged and visually impaired individuals in the future.
