What is a voiceover?
Any spoken audio added over a video or picture(s). This includes ads, tutorials, and characters. Simply, if you don’t see who’s speaking…that’s voiceover.
Can you audition and how much will it cost?
There’s never any charge for an audition; unless, of course, you’re feeling generous. If we don’t audition, how will you know what your project will sound like? We will produce a demo copy of your script; a demo meaning…that we’ll change the company name or phone number or add a subtle tone into the recording, then submit it for your approval. Once it’s approved you’ll get a clean, broadcast quality, recording ready for use.
I need help writing my project; can you help and what if I want to add music or sound effects?
Yes, we can offer copy writing services; as well as full audio production. We have an ever growing library of royalty free music and sound effects.
Can I listen in while you record (offer direction)?
Yes you can. We have a phone patch where you can listen to the session; and it will have no effect on the recording.
What if there’s a mispronunciation; or, if I want to make a change to the script?
There’s no charge for words that I say different than you do; however, we try to minimize that by asking for pronunciations prior to recording. Changes to the script: ordinarily, small changes we’ll work with; however, if the change is significant then there will be an additional charge.
Do you have your own studio?
Sure do; and we keep it updated, too. We’re located in Las Vegas, NV; and have no problem going to a local studio that you prefer to work with.
How will my project be delivered?
That’s the beauty of digital media: You’ll get a finished, ready for air recording; or, (if you prefer) the raw (unedited) recording. Your MP3 or WAV file will be sent via email, uploaded to an FTP site, Hightail (formerly YouSendIt.com), Dropbox, Google Drive…etc.
How soon can my project be finished?
We’ll try to get your project(s) completed as soon as we get them (depending on the size of the project). Of course, in the perfect world we’d like to get them to you yesterday. The best case scenario – 1 hour; the worst – 24 hours. Larger projects, like long form narrations or audio books, could take weeks.
Can I choose from other voices to be used for my project?
Oh yeah….We have access to many great voice-over talents (male and female). It’ll typically mean a longer turnaround time but we’ll try to keep it at a minimum. If your project requires more than 1 voice, an additional fee will be added per voice.
What are your rates?
That’s the $261,000 question. There’s an endless list of categories and rates; we try to be competitive. It’s suggested that you send us your script with your budget, how the audio will be used and we’ll work from there. We promise not to clean out your checking account (you do have one, right?)
How do I pay you?
Payments are accepted in United States Dollars (USD); via Paypal, Venmo, check or money order (from an accredited U.S. bank). We can accept a wire transfer; however, there will be a bank charge added.
