what does a voiceover cost?
Good question. Rates for voiceover vary. This is usually to do with WHERE the VO is going to be used.
To simplify things, my fee involves 3 things:
​
1- A basic session fee (BSF): calculated according to the word length of your script.
2- A production fee: finish / edit the audio. I include this for free in projects under 200 wrds.
3- A usage license: Commercial or Broadcast usage.
Broadcast usage is paid media (TV, radio, paid online / social.) It's priced per month or full buyout and applies PER SPOT (eg per cutdown- 25/15/5 sec etc) A free live session is included for all broadcast orders.
Commercial usage is everything else: web videos, B2B, animations, internal videos, live events, training.
​
If yours is an e-learning project then no license is needed and the BSF is calculated in bands (500-1000 words, 1000-2000 words etc).
​
I also offer extras like:
- a live directed session via source connect or over zoom
- file splitting for e-learning modules
- time synching to your video.
​
so, what will my voiceover cost?
The best way to find out is to CONTACT ME for a custom quote. Let me know the word length, use and production needs of your project and we can get chatting.

How fast is your turnaround?As long as I have all the information I need then most VOs can be turned around within 24 hours, or same day for an extra rush charge

Can you synch the voiceover to my visuals?Sure can, for an extra 20% production fee I can fit the timing of the voice over to your slide show or animation.
