FAQ

Question: What are professional voice over services?

Voice over services refers to services performed by professional voice actors, namely voice recordings for various applications.

The applications that use voice overs are many and include:

And many more…

Question: How do I hire a voice talent on the online platform?

To hire voice talent on our platform, you first need to create a project.

At Voice Crafters, you can either handpick specific voice actors to send you quotes, or post a project, and let our system find talent for you, based on parameters you enter on the quote form.

When choosing specific voice artists, we highly recommend choosing at least 10-15 options, so you can get quotes quickly (unless you’re honed in on fewer talent).

To learn more about the entire process of hiring talent and quickly getting your deliverables, check out our How It Works page.

Question: How much does it cost to hire a voice actor?

Professional voice actors’ rates can vary greatly, depending on their level of training and years of experience.

However, the most important factor determining voice over rates is the usage.

A 15-second national commercial with rights to air for 12 months will usually cost much, much more than a 45-minute e-learning module used within an organization.

That’s because of the level of exposure a commercial receives, and the potential revenue the client can receive from the voice actor’s work.

Most voice actors use local pricing guides with recommended rates.

For example, the GVAA Rate Guide is a standard rate guide for many voice actors, particularly those working in the US and Canada.

You’ll find that most voice actors are happy to negotiate their rates, so the best thing to do is post a project to find out what your cost would be.

Learn more about how voice over rates are determined in our comprehensive guide.

Question: Can I direct a voice actors remotely?

Absolutely!

At Voice Crafters, most voice actors are set up to record while you can listen in and direct them.

There are multiple platforms to do this.

While Source Connect is the most popular choice for professional voice actors and studios, our voice actors can be directed via Skype, Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, etc.

Here are 10 tools you can use to direct voice talent.

Question: What does a voiceover agent do?

A voice over agent acts as a buffer between the voice actor and the client.

The agent can help voice actors get voice over work, negotiate contracts for them, and help resolve legal issues that may arise.

From the client’s perspective, the agent’s role is to find the best voice talent options based on the client’s brief and budget, arrange auditions, and facilitate project management.

Question: What is a voice over marketplace?

A voice over marketplace allows clients and voice actors to interact directly, without an agent.

Through the marketplace’s platform, clients can post their project, describe the type of voice over they’d like, its usage, and where it would be broadcast.

Voice actors in turn send their quotes, communicate directly with clients, and once hired through the platform, deliver their voice recordings to the client.

Question: What is the difference between a voice talent agency and a marketplace?

A voice talent agency will usually do the heavy lifting for you: Cast talent based on your brief, schedule a remote session (if needed), and take care of all the post-production work. You’ll want to work with an agency if your budget isn’t too tight and you want to focus on high-quality service and deliverables.

A voice over marketplace allows you to browse and hire voice actors yourself, work directly with them on the platform, and usually take care of the post-production work on your end. This is a great solution for anyone with a more hands-on approach.

Learn more about the pros and cons of working with an agency vs. a marketplace on our blog.

Question: Is the voice acting industry growing?

According to Blend’s 2023 State of the Voice Over Industry report, the voice-acting industry is “undoubtedly on the rise, driven by the ever-expanding digital content landscape.”

While AI / synthesized voices have become quite popular, many companies still opt for human voice overs.

“From animated series and video games to audiobooks and virtual assistants, voice actors are sought after to breathe life into characters and narratives“, according to the report.
