1 Voice over. A voice over, or voiceover, is heard in many places. However, the most commonly heard ones are tv and radio advertising. Voice overs are also used for interactive telephone systems, for online promotional films and campaigns, and online training systems. Voiceovers are heard on public transport, on your phone/gadets (Siri)/ Alexa) in toys, in computer games, and much more. I work on most kinds of voiceovers!
2 Studio. I operate out of my own, broadcast quality studio with recording facilities, Source Connect and Source Connect Now. I generally record any voice over as a high quality mono wav file, but can convert audio or record in different formats if required.
3 Fees. Fees are agreed prior to commencing recording, and are charged based on amount of time in studio and post production, use of the audio, duration of the use of the audio and other relevant factors. Please contact me to discuss fees for any project.
4 Limited company. I operate my voice over business (and PR business) through a limited VAT registered company registered in England and Wales.
5 Booking. To book me for a voice over, either contact me by email or by telephone. Most work is turned around quickly, mostly within 24 hours depending on the length of the recording. Bookings can be put in the diary well in advance to secure priority on my studio/ editing time, to ensure a job is delivered to meet your deadlines. If you require a tight turnaround, I have a very good reputation for working with clients to meet tight deadlines.
