Thinking Of Hiring Voice Talent?
June 2, 2007For any sales presentation or advertisement, I recommend always interviewing no less than several voice actors for the part. You will find that, although there are many aspiring orators available, only a few will have the training and experience required to fulfill on the most professional jobs.
The truly professional voice actors train for years to develop their vocal abilities, often studying under numerous voice coaches and teachers and sometimes even start their voice lessons at a very young age. Inevitably one can pick them out in a crowd, as they will be the ones with the impressive lists of fortune 500 companies on their résumé. If they are trained, savvy and professional enough for this nations powerhouse companies, then you’ll usually find that they’re gong to be experienced enough to adapt into just about any format.
Just make sure there are plenty of samples for you to listen to and in a variety of styles, and they should be able to quote you an estimate on any work before the job is ever started. If they cannot give you a free quote, it usually means that they are not experienced enough to know how much work a job will require and that should be a red flag to you.
