Selecting the right voice over artist for your media production

Louise Wilson – Voiceover Artist Leicestershire

Whether it’s a corporate video, a training production, a radio ad or an on-hold marketing campaign you’re planning or working on, it’s not always easy to select the most suitable voice for your unique media production which will help maximise its impact.

And, because voice over is quite often added in the final phase of the production process, choosing a voice over artist can be left to the last minute reducing your options and putting you in danger of overshooting the deadline.

Your production’s audio track is important, it’s the proverbial ‘icing on the cake’ and will be there to deliver vital information about your company, products, services and overall brand.

Here are some valuable tips on selecting the right voice artist for your media production:

• Think about voice over early on in the planning process. Identify your target audience. Should the voice be male or female, youthful or mature, chatty or formal?
• Place yourself in the viewer and listener’s shoes and imagine the finished article; how do you feel in your mind’s eye (and ear!) when you’re watching and/or listening? The chances are that your audience will feel similar things when viewing and hearing your production.
• Research. It may seem obvious but having other productions to refer to can prove invaluable when choosing and employing the services of a professional voice over artist. Examples of tone, pace and style really help a voice over artist to nail the sound you’re looking to achieve quickly – saving time, money and stress.

Although every voice is unique, every voice over artist is looking to achieve the same outcome: to supply you with superb voice over audio that shows off your product, service and brand in its best possible light thereby helping you to attain to best result imaginable in the most cost-effective way. And that’s good for us too!
