Hello and… welcome back to my blog! I’m Rodì from hercreativedetails.com and I hope to be really helpful with this article too.

After talking to you about how to edit a video for your projects, today I’m talking about voice overs and how to find a suitable voice for your projects. So if you are about to launch a new podcast, a video on youtube or any other project that requires the inclusion of a professional voice, continue reading this article, it will probably really help you.

But let’s take a step back … what is a voice over and what is it for?

“Once upon a time..”
(It is one of the most classic examples of the presence of a voice over … cartoons!)

A “voice over” (also called voiceover) is a narrating voice that is not accompanied by the face of the narrator within the scene and that is often not part of the narrative itself.
I am sure that at least once in your life you will have seen a film, video or commercial with a narrating voice.
The narrative voice technique is a technique widely used in mainstream storytelling, especially in cinema and television. It is often used in films, TV series or commercials precisely to give the viewer a feeling of “neutrality” of the narrative.
But the purpose of this article is not the voice over within cinema or television, but the use of this technique within videos for social media, podcasts and much more.

Why do we choose a voice over?

The voice over technique is increasingly used by many bloggers, youtubers and brand owners for the creation of podcasts, videos for youtube, promotional videos for the launch of a new product and much more.
The reasons why you typically choose to use a real voice over instead of your own voice are as follows:

1. because our accent in a particular language is not yet excellent;
2. because you don’t want to expose yourself in the first person;
3. because you intend to communicate a certain emotion to the viewer and show your empathy.

So if you too are a blogger, a youtuber or need to add a personalized voice over to your projects, continue reading the article, it could be useful. Here I can suggest you professional voice over services.

Artificial voice over apps and services: why avoid them?

This is a very important point. As I wrote to you at the beginning of this article, the voice over technique is a very widespread technique nowadays. Consequently, in addition to personalized services, apps and bots that simulate a voice to be used within one’s projects are also increasing – but, if possible, it would be better to avoid using these voice over services online, apps or bots for the following reasons:

• Flat tone of voice, always the same: these apps often tend to simulate a voice over that is always the same without accents, pauses and unrealistic tones of voice;
• Lack of “emotions”: often these voice simulators do not let any emotion leak out. Consequently, they are really counterproductive for your projects, as being able to communicate certain emotions to the viewer through the voice is essential for the success of each project.
• Perception of a “non-real narrator”: this kind of services often give the viewer the idea that on the other side of the narrative there is a robot and not a real person with real emotions.
