About Our Voice-Over Services
Voice-over is a production technique in which a voice that is not part of the narration is previously recorded and played over the soundtrack of a movie or video.
It is a very commonly used technique in corporate videos, documentaries, themed supplements, and news and media reports that involves the original soundtrack being turned down and the translated voice and conversations reproduced over the top of it at a higher volume with a few seconds’ delay (superimposed voice, more commonly known as voice-overs) – Maintaining the emotion and effects of the original while providing information in the native language of the audience.
Key Benefits

What are voice over services?
Voice over services involve the technique of playing a vocal track over an original soundtrack with a higher volume. Depending on the kind of project – market audiobook, commercial, podcast, corporate voice-over, or eLearning – the voice-over can function as a narrator or a rendering of the content in another language.
Voice-overs are conducted by specialized voice artist that are native speakers of the language or accent in the target market, e.g. US or South African English - enhancing the overall viewer experience.
When looking to hire voice-over talent, it is important to find a trusted provider like Seprotec that offers affordable pricing without compromising on expertise or quality – whether you need a narrator for an audiobook or an authoritative voice for a corporate ad. -
What is better: Hiring a human voice actor or using an synthetic voice?
As the solutions on the market are diverse, so are audio and video projects. When choosing between hiring voice actors or using artificial voices, there are several factors to consider.
There are several advantages to using an synthetic voice, for example, they are cost-efficient, scalable, and available around the clock. Nowadays you can also find a large repertoire of female and male voices, even in different age groups, different language variations, and local accents - which can easily be adapted to the requirements of the project.
However, the authenticity and emotion that a talented voice-over artist can bring to a project cannot be matched by a text-to-speech program. Synthetic voices may further sound robotic and awkward to a human listener.
Whether you are looking for a voice actor or a synthetic solution, a language service provider like Seprotec can help find the perfect voice for your project. -
How much does voice over recording cost?
Pricing for voice over recording can vary depending on factors such as the language, delivery time, the voice actor’s experience, the length of the script, and the intended usage of the recording.
