Voice over for the sector you work in.
Voice over for the sector you work in: typical uses, what to watch for, and the services and languages to start with, from banking to gaming.
- Advertising agenciesAgencies buy voice for clients in many markets at once, so they need casting by script, versions in several lengths and files that carry no supplier name.
- Automotive brandsAutomotive voice work ranges from brand film to in-car prompts, with launches that run in dozens of markets and a head unit that needs short, exact prompts.
- Banks and financial servicesFinancial voice work carries rules, figures and disclaimers that have to be read exactly, in every language, and approved before recording.
- Broadcasters and streaming platformsBroadcasters and streamers need a consistent channel voice, quick promo changes and localisation of whole catalogues.
- E-commerce companiesE-commerce teams voice thousands of products and many market sites, so the work is batch recording, naming by SKU and fast language additions.
- E-learning and edtech companiesE-learning is voiced module by module and updated often, so files are named to screens and every edit is recorded as a matched pickup.
- Energy and utility companiesUtilities speak to customers through phone systems, safety announcements and public information, in the languages of their service area.
- Fashion and beauty brandsFashion and beauty voice work is about tone: a brand voice that feels the same on a runway film, a product video and a social clip, in every market.
- Food and beverage companiesFood and drink brands advertise heavily on radio, television and online, and they localise recipes, nutrition lines and promotions market by market.
- Game studios and publishersGame studios record thousands of lines in many languages, so scripts carry IDs, direction carries context and every file imports without rework.
- Government and public bodiesPublic bodies must reach every resident, so voice work is plain, accessible and recorded in the languages the community speaks.
- Healthcare organisationsHealthcare content must be read slowly, clearly and with correct terms, because patients and clinicians act on what they hear.
- Hotels and hospitality groupsHotels need voice for the front desk, lifts, spas and in-room systems, in the languages of their guests, with a tone that matches the brand.
- InsurersInsurance voice work explains policies and claims in plain language, and the voice must be calm and trustworthy, particularly on claims lines.
- Localization agenciesLocalization agencies already own translation and project management, so they need voice recorded by line ID, to their timing and returned in their file structure.
- Logistics and transport operatorsTransport voice work is heard in stations, vehicles and call centres, so messages are short, repeatable and recorded in the languages of travellers.
- Manufacturers and industrial companiesIndustrial voice work explains machines and procedures to operators in many countries, so safety and clarity come before style.
- Museums, galleries and cultural venuesCultural venues guide visitors from many countries, so audio guides, films and announcements are recorded by stop, by language and in a tone that suits the collection.
- Non-profit organisationsNon-profits tell stories on small budgets and often in many languages, so voice work has to be clear, moving and quick to produce.
- Pharmaceutical companiesPharmaceutical voice work travels across regulated markets, with approved text, fixed terms and strict review before anything is published.
- Production companiesProduction companies need a voice partner that can match a locked cut, deliver in stems and carry a series across many languages without changing cast.
- Real estate developers and agentsReal estate marketing sells off-plan projects to buyers abroad, so films and tours are voiced in the buyers’ languages with the right tone for the price.
- RetailersRetailers need voice in the store, on the radio and online, changing weekly and varying by region and by language.
- Sports organisations and event producersSport and events need live-feeling voice: announcements, highlights and brand films that carry energy, in the languages of the fans.
- Technology and software companiesSoftware companies release often and in many markets, so voice work has to be modular, easy to update and consistent with the product voice.
- Telecom operatorsTelecom operators run large phone systems and constant promotions, so they need IVR prompts, hold messages and campaign voice in many regional versions.
- Tourism boards and travel companiesTourism voice work sells a place to visitors from many countries, so it needs a warm voice and a native narrator for each source market.
- Universities and higher educationUniversities voice lectures, open courses and admissions films for international students, often with tight budgets and many languages.
