How to order a voiceover online - in 5 steps.
​
Step 1
Use the Contact Form or email to get in touch via melissachambersvoice@gmail.com. Tell me about your project, including (if possible):
- word or time length
- usage (where it's going to ie website, paid social campaign, you tube etc)
- ideal budget
-ideal delivery time
- a sample of your script so I can record you a demo.
- whether you need time synching to visuals
- if you'd like a live directed session.
Step 2
I'll get back to you with a quote, and a sample recording of your script if needed.
Step 3
If the demo and quote is fine by you, then send me back a confirmation, and attach your final script. Try and make sure the script is proofread and 100% correct. I do include a review session in my fee but best set out with the most accurate material to prevent multiple re-reads and extra costs.
Step 4
I will record the full script and send to you an mp3, aiff or wave file of the recording, plus an invoice - I accept payments via bank transfer to WISE (in your currency) or via credit card through paypal.me.
​
Step 5
If you are satisfied with the recording then the work is done, you pay the invoice and we look forward ot next time. OR If you feel that the read is not quite right yet, or something is mispronounced / needs a different tone, then send through your feedback and I'll do a revision session. I include one revision session free of charge, subsequent revisions are at a negotiated session price depending on the amount of material but are normally an $USD80 flat rate. I will re-record as per feedback and send through the revised files. You only pay once you're satisfied with the recording!
-
What timezone are you in?I'm in the UK, so GMT.
-
What payment types do you accept?Secure credit card payments (processed through paypal, there is a small transaction fee for this method) and bank transfer.
-
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
-
Do you edit the voiceover?Sure do. In most cases this will mean clean up (taking out mistakes etc) and breath removal. I can also time synch your audio for an additional editing fee. For more extensive edits (audiobooks etc) I have a terrific editor thatI work with to get files back to you asap.
-
Can I hear a sample of my script for free?Absolutely, just get in touch and I can send you back a sample to get the conversation going.
-
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.
-
Can I have a discount for multiple narrations?Sure thing :) I regularly give batch discounts, just get in touch and we'll talk through your situation.

So which one are you... Australian? Or British?Fair question. I'm from Australia, I grew up in Brisbane and went to Drama School in Melbourne. So with my Australian accent you're getting an authentic, educated sound straight from the source. I've lived in the UK for 11 years, so in a British accent you're getting a clear and most importantly regionless English language voice. Clients (incuding UK clients) have told me that my voice is perfect for a global audience as it is basically 'the voice of information.' The best way to find out whether either accent is right for you though, is to get in touch and I'll demo some of your script for you free of charge.
