3 Steps That Guarantee Getting Voice Overs Right From the Onset (2015-04-21)
Providing the right voice over script, the right words and proper pronunciation is the key to having a successful voice over project. One needs to know what they want in order to have what they want said correctly. From our years of experience as a voice over company, we have learnt lessons from thousands of voice over clients about what makes successful voice over projects.
To ensure that you're not disappointed with your projects, take the following ideas as your do's and don't when you're looking for voice overs.
You should know what you want
By defining your requirements based on what you want, you will be in a position to tell the voice over artistes to record what you need. However, this is not as straightforward as you think; you have to determine your requirements based on what your customers/audience want to hear.
It is very important for you to write as much about what you want as you possibly can to ensure that your voice artiste has enough to work with: tone, style, pitch, etc. This enhances the scripts on the part of who says it, and who its said to.
Write for spoken
Creating a voice script also depends on how the words are written. Ensure that you write spoken words: short sentences, line breaks, and pauses that look real in spoken language. Customers who have mastered their spoken word always tend to find comfort in whatever work the voice talent delivers. You should also do this when you want a native language voice over say a Chinese voice over, British voice over, etc. depending on your requirements.
Get feedback before sending requirements
The quality of voice over work is equally important as the output one gets. Before uploading your voice overs, try to get unbiased 3rd party advice on what they think about your script, direction and comments. If not for anything, this prevents error blindness that affects even the best proofreaders out there.
