Trailer voice over
Trailer voice over made to your brief.
A trailer needs a voice with weight and a read that rises with the cut, and the casting, the length of each pause and the sound of the room matter as much as the words.
Why it works
What matters in trailer voice over
Three things that decide how this work turns out.
- 01
Weight and pace
Trailer reads are slow and low, with pauses placed against the cut, and they are directed beat by beat.
- 02
Many cuts
Teasers, theatrical and digital cuts of one trailer are recorded together and match in tone.
- 03
Several languages
Dubbed trailers keep the same weight, with a native voice per market.
