You are all set to get producing your video, an e-learning project, a phone message or your audio book. You have the script, the tools, the deadline and you now need a voice over artist to make it sound professional and bring it to life. What budget do you need for a voice over artist? How much does a voice over cost?
Well let me tell you how voice over rates vary and what type of factors influence influences them. The most important variables include:
1. The size of the project or in a voice over artists world - the length of the script. Approximately 5 minutes of recorded and produced voice audio would be 1000 words.
So if you count your words you can generally estimate the length of audio.
2. Studio requirement for recording - do you need to rent a studio or does your voice over artist have their own professional studio. It is far less expensive, faster and more convenient to use the voice overs studio.
3. Use of audio - what are you using the voice over for? Is it for an e-learning project, is it for radio or a phone message? Or are you using the voice over for a social media video or explainer video? Each type can infer different voice over rates. If it is for a broadcast project (TV, Radio) it will have a higher rate. If for a more "below the line" medium such as website video, e-learning, audio book or phone system it will be far less expensive.
So it's important to be able to provide your voice over with the above details - that way you will get an accurate price.
I have a professional studio so can record voice over projects fast and cost effectively. Often within 24 hours. My voice over rates begin from €85 and I have flexible rates depending on the above. Let me bring your project to life! Give me a call on +353833200200 or email me on skeltonrh@gmail.com
