As a professional Voiceover artist my answer would be an obvious YES! But apart from keeping me in voiceover work, what are the real benefits of using a professional voiceover for explainer video.
Audio Quality
If you’ve spent good money creating a visual delight why spoil the experience by using bad sounding audio. Poor audio quality includes things like background noise and distortions such as hissing and buzzing on the track. By using a professional voiceover artist with professional broadcast equipment you receive a clear, balanced voiceover narration free from extraneous noise and distortion.
“Alison provides your Voiceover narration fully edited and free from background noise and distortions.”
Don’t let poor audio quality distract your viewers away from your message. If your viewers are struggling to hear the voiceover through poor audio quality, you will quickly lose them and potentially their business and sale.
Its Not Just The Technical Aspect…
Although the technical quality of the voiceover is critical to its success, its also important that the narration captures the style, tone and inflection you’re after.
Take advantage of the experience a professional voiceover brings, to interpret your script and deliver a killer read. Most voiceover artists are more than happy to discuss the type of read you’d like to hear. They are often able to provide a free demo so you can hear the delivery of the read before you commit.
“I can send you a free sample from your script to check you’re happy with the style and delivery of the read”
Think about the your customers who will view the video. What style of voiceover do you think they would relate to? Would a more corporate read be more appropriate or something a little more relaxed and friendly?
