Considerations In Hiring Female And Male Voice Over Talents

By Christa Jarvis


Voice over is quite different with acting although relatively the same nature but different usage. When it comes to doings overs, they are usually omniscient dialogues from a narrator thrown over marketing advertisements, films, and shows. This is still a part of voice acting but has a different use.

Doing voice acting is for mostly characters that has dialogues and could partially be omniscient. Most of the time this is being made in dramas in radio and television which are mostly either three dimensional or two dimensional animations. Dubbing is a different thing, the process is like for voicing in other languages where the material is already made prior to voicing. Female and also male voice over talents have the ability to do any of these.

As a producer, you would want the best and most fitting talent for your project. That is why there are a couple of qualities you need to checklist in hiring one. A believable vocal quality could go a long way. They should not go over the top as with the same with newscasters and announcers.

Talents are always practicing and experimenting many various kinds of tone and pitch. Therefore, you need to get the right one which they would stand apart from the rest of the ones that auditioned. You need to take time on this part by listening to what sort of aspect that pushes them above the rest.

Acquire their high quality demo tapes. This would help you in getting the gist of their skills and talent from these actors and actresses. There is a huge tendency that the face to face interviews with them would be entirely contrasting with how they actually perform. These tapes will help you make the decision faster.

Picking out the ones you want would be easy if they have given samples for different voices. This gives you a better knowledge on what they can do and what their limits are. This makes it easier for you to choose the one that you want for the project who can do the right type of voices for the role that you have in mind.

In regular conversations, people most of the time have unnecessary and erratic pauses and transitions between words that throws off the other person sometimes when they are listening to them. The actor should be able to have a nice flow in their dialogues and acting. The speaking should be fluid unless deemed necessary for a role.

The stuff that has been mentioned so far are just a preview of what the artist can do. What they should need to do correctly is to endure the whole process for the project. They have to have a lot of endurance and consistency with their craft without faltering or fluctuating on their performance levels.

As a producer or interviewer, it is going to be entirely difficult to get the right people. As an actor, take all of these into consideration and have them refined with each and every audition and interview that you get. Being prepared with samples would also help the producer decide if you are the one they are looking for in their projects.
