FAQs/Rates:
Q: Is there any difference of price between final media (For example,
do you charge differently if a voiceover is for broadcast or for
a corporate video?)
A: Nope -- charge the same great prices, usage and royalty-free forever -- no matter
who you are, who your project is for, or where or when you or your
clients use it! We don't play those market/usage games.
Q:
Do you have your own recording studio? Do you charge
a separate studio fee?
A: We have our own digital multitrack studio featuring
professional microphones. All
studio fees are included in our standard voiceover
pricing. Music beds, sound effects, and additional voice talent are
all available and would be billed separately.
Q: If I e-mailed you a script today, when could it be done?
A: Turnaround is almost always in a day, and immediate delivery is
available via an e-mailed or downloadable CD-quality MP3, AIF, WAV or WMA file.
FedEx next-day or two-day delivery of a CD is available at an additional charge.
Q: What formats do you use for delivery?
A:
We can deliver via CD-quality MP3 in the bitrate of your choice via e-mail, FTP
transfer, or you can download your file directly from our website.
Or, if you prefer, we'll burn an
Audio CD, Data CD, or MD with a small postage and media charge. Other
digital formats are also available upon request.
Q: Can you audition a specific script so our clients can approve the
voice?
A: Sure! Short auditions for established clients will be delivered via
MP3 files at no additional charge.
Q: Can you voice technical scripts (medical, industrial or computer
scripts with heavy technical terms)?
A: Bring it on! We can voice anything from The Magna Carta in an
English accent to Snoop Dogg's next
rap song in full Ebonics to the Spanish version of your favorite bad karate movie. We only ask
that you include the phonetic pronunciation of tricky technical terms.
Q: What characters can you perform?
A: James Earl Jones, Casey Kasem, Arnold Schwarzenneger, Morpheus, English accent, Australian accent,
French accent, Jamaican accent, Mexican accent, African-American accent,
New York accent, Middle Eastern accent, Country accent, Oriental accent,
monotone announcer, high-energy car salesman, lisp, Gen X dude,
surfer dude, dumb dude, snooty dude, miserable old man, geek, little kid,
political announcer, sexy announcer, folksy announcer... and more!

Q: What happens if we need to correct the intention or inflection of your voice in any
part of the script?
A: We'll fix it so you or your client is happy! For scripts
two minutes or less, we'll do one additional
read at no additional charge. For longer scripts, we'll send you the
first minute for your approval. We do ask that you clearly indicate the
emphasis, tone, or specific inflection you desire in your scripts.
Q: Do you charge by the project or by the minute?
A: For non-ISDN voiceovers, we typically charge by the total
amount of recorded seconds (if less than one minute) or per finished minute with time rounded up to the next
minute. Here's our current
