AS A SERVICE TO BOTH PROFESSIONALS AND

BEGINNERS, HERE'S SOME VOICE OVER

REFERENCE MATERIAL I FOUND VALUABLE

 

 

Voice-over

The word or phrase voice over, also known as voiceover, VO or voice-over, refers to an audio production method where a person’s voice is either broadcast live or pre-recorded in radio advertising , television, etc. The voice over may be spoken by someone who also appears on screen in other segments or it may be done by a voice talent. Voice over is also referred to as "off camera" commentary. A Voice over talent or announcer can also use voices and characterization as a narrator of training videos and/or documentaries.

The term voice over can also mean the actual voice talent who performed the job. The terms voice actor, narrator, voice talent, announcer are all used in kind.

It is common that a voice over talent, narrator or announcer narrates the story and sometimes comments on the action in voice over ( VO, announcer, narrator, voiceover talent ).

The Voice over (VO, announcer, narrator, voiceover, voice-over ) technique is also used in audio production to give voices and personalities to animated characters.

In films, the sound of a voice (or voices) over images on the screen that may or may not be related to the images being shown is sometimes used to make a counterpoint. In addition, they can be random voices not directly connected to the images on the screen.

Voice over or VO, announcer, narrator, voiceover, or voice-over is often used for storytelling by an omniscient narrator.

The “film noir” genre is especially associated with the voice over method.

In radio and audio production, voice overs are a huge part of the typical radio program. Though the announcer holds the prestige and claims all the glory, it is the voiceover talent that can be the real drive behind the show.

The voice-over also has a lot ot do with non-fiction. TV news is often shown as a series of clips with voice over by the reporters describing the news.

Educational and documentary networks make extensive use of voice overs, VO’s, announcers and narrators. Likewise, sports event broadcasts usually have extensive voice overs by an expert announcer.

Voice-over comments by a critic, historian, or by audio production personnel is often a prominent feature of  films or documentaries on DVDs.

In commercials, the use of voice over in TV and radio advertising has been popular since the beginning.

Before effective audio production and mixing, announcers were produced "live" in a studio with the entire cast, crew and, usually, orchestra. A corporate sponsor hired an audio production specialist, who hired writers and voice actors to perform.

This industry expanded rapidly with the introduction of television in the 1950s and the age of highly produced serial radio shows ended.

Voice acting is the art of doing voices, voice over, or vo for animated characters and in audio production for radio and audio dramas and comedy, doing voice overs in radio and television commercials, audio production, and radio and television advertising. An individual who performs such voice over roles is called a voice actor or voice talent.

For professional audio production, voice over acting done by the announcer or narrator usually involves reading computer programs, instructions by telephone.

It is not unusual to find regular on-screen actors doing  voices, voice over, vo, or voice-over jobs. For those actors, voice over has the advantage of offering acting work without having to bother with makeup, costuming, lighting, etc.

Voice over ctors have a small but furious fan base, making appearances at events.

Commercials for television and radio advertising are also done using voice over, vo, voiceover or announcer or narrator agencies.

Education and direction in entering the voice over, announcer, vo, voiceover or narrator marketplace and how to market one's self is offered at various schools and facilities around the U.S.

VO coaches who have had success in commercial, narration, and voice over offer private training, tele-seminars and weekend workshops for both novice and experienced voices. The VoiceOver International Creative Experience (VOICE) in Los Angeles is an annual expo open to all voice actors, coaches, agents, and audio production specialists within the VO industry.

Though lots of fun and very creative, steady work as a voice over talent in the US is normally realistic only in major metropolitan areas such as New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. 

What are voice over directors looking for? Here are some tips …

Good luck!

Voice over vo, voiceover or announcer or narrator talents often don’t make it because the talent doesn't understand the character for which they are auditioning, or  they have no versatility or they haven't prepared a unique voice or they aren't able to take direction.

What voice over vo, voiceover or announcer or narrator talent should do is make themselves stick out at an audition. Be on-time, prepared and have several different voices for each character. Versatility and the ability to take direction are key.

Get some professional acting training.

Know your limits.

Know your strengths and take advantage of them.

Get your demo tape professionally produced.

There is nothing more disappointing than an interesting voice that can't act. Be natural and don't try too hard.

Develop a versatile range.

Give a fantastic performance on your demo.

Get yourself a broadminded agent.

Use contacts ruthlessly.

Develop a thick skin.

DON'T...give up too easily. An insanely tenacious attitude will usually get you there in the end.

Here are a few tips for the auditions:

- Bring a lemon and as you step up to the mic, squeeze some of its juice into the water and take a professional-looking swig. It's good for funny voices and makes an impression on people.

- Pretend to understand everything that you are being told by confused directors. Even if it sounds ridiculous or obscene, just make an interpretation and blurt out something.
