For Australian broadcast please get in touch with the lovely Claudia and she'll work with you to determine a rate that fits for all.

When you get in touch, be sure to let me know the length of the script and/or it's intended reach (the location and duration of broadcast). The other advantage of SCN is more than one person can listen in.Įvery project is unique and the value is determined by usage/reach - how long the recording will be used for (e.g., 3 months) and how many people will hear it (e.g., one state / national, internal training / public internet). Old-fashioned wired ones work best (wireless do work too, however they seem to be less consistent). You just need to click this link in a Chrome browser, and wear some earphones that have a built-in microphone. If not, and you'd like to listen in HD sound, Source Connect Now (SCN) works great. If you're a recording studio I have Source Connect Standard under 'jenmaryvo'. Of course! Just let me know your time zone and we'll tee something up. I upload to Hightail, WeTransfer, GoogleDrive or Dropbox - let me know your preference.ĭo you do live sessions from your own booth? Alternatively I provide you with the RAW file for your team to produce.


I can edit, de-breath and lightly process my files so they're ready to go.
DROPVOX VOICEOVER PROFESSIONAL
The booth stops noise from the outside getting in, and the foam creates that professional "dead" sound.Ībsolutely. It's a double-walled isolation booth built from MDF wood and lined with Basotect foam. If you're looking for one, some places I can personally recommend are The Voice Plant, Rosco Audio, 3P, Cutting Edge or The Post Lounge.Īlternatively I record from my own private broadcast studio. If you're ready to ask for a quote or test sample shoot me a message or an email right now, it's that easy. Interested in knowing more about me? I've got some answers to common questions below. Asking for an audition read is a good way to 'try on' the service of a particular talent without committing. Listen to demos and ask for a custom read of your script. Within that brief there remains a pool professional talent who could serve you equally well, and that's where it comes down to individual preference. Other measures of effectiveness might include direct consumer feedback, improved content engagement, learning or even sales results. An effective voiceover is first of all one that satisfies or exceeds your client's expectations. When a session is booked, you know they will arrive with time to spare and not embarrass you to the client.Įffectiveness: The talent can quickly adjust their performance to execute the read that will be most effective. They can also be depended on to let you know if what you're asking is not possible, or to ask you if they need extra information. Reliability: When the talent says they will deliver in under 24 hours, you can be sure they will keep their word. They can also match their performance from past recordings for seamless pickups. So what should you look for in a voice talent? Consistency, Reliability and Effectiveness.Ĭonsistency: The talent can provide you with the same quality audio across gaps of time. So here are some future headaches you might avoid by booking premium talent today: working hard to produce content that is ultimately perceived as lower in quality because of poor audio or a wooden voiceover, needing to redo an entire project because the original voice is no longer available to record small pickups (or that voice cannot match the exact audio quality or performance from the first recording), losing money on a commercial that doesn't connect with the listener because the voiceover wasn't convincing, losing potential customers because an on-hold voice sounds annoying, reducing content retention in eLearning because the voiceover wasn't personable or easy to listen to, alienating potential customers from a brand by choosing a voice they don't relate to. While the best producers know that paying for quality voiceover is worth it, some clients with less experience might need convincing. But the saying is true that 'cheap' is 'expensive' in the long run. In one sense, yes, you can very quickly find any number of people happy to record your script, perhaps for a bargain price. With so many voice talent out there, you'd think that getting a voiceover done would be straightforward.
