My voiceover career began in high school in Birmingham, AL where at 16 I was a radio announcer at the #1 radio station in the state. After graduation from high school I received a vocal scholarship to Alabama A&M University where I majored in Telecommunication, managed the campus TV station and worked at a local radio and TV station. Upon graduation from college I was fortunate enough to join CNN Headline News a Video Journalist and rose up the ranks to become Technical Director. After being with HLN for several years I got married, moved to MO, had a son, moved back to Atlanta, went back to CNN, worked for at a Mega-Church as TV-Director/Voice Talent, and joined the TV department at a major corporation as a Director/ Editor/ Producer/Voice Talent. I have had the opportunity to voice projects for national, regional, and local clients.
Every voice actor sets their own rate. All of our talents are pros, but the cost can vary depending on their experience and skill level.
Generally speaking, voice over rates depend on:
- Will the voice over be for broadcast and paid ads, or organic, non-promotional use?
- The length of the script (word count).
- Do you need the voice over fully edited and production-ready, or just the raw audio?
- Do you want to direct the voice artist in real-time, or can they record independently?
Many of our voice actors follow our pricing schedule, but you’ll find that rates are negotiable, so if you let them know what you can afford, there’s a good chance they’ll accommodate you!
