How to Do Voice Overs Like a Pro: The Complete Guide

Any old iron

Making the right choice about which voice to use in the company’s advertising and communications is not a decision to take lightly. You can’t just pick any old voice.

In the world of audio, the Voice Over Recording you select will become the company. The listener will create a mental image of the business based on what is heard.

To paraphrase the acclaimed Canadian philosopher Marshall McLuhan, this is definitely a case where “the medium is the message”.

In his 1964 book “Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man” McLuhan espoused the medium or the channel used to send a message is more important than the meaning or content of the message.

This is the reasoning behind the critical importance of correctly selecting a voice. So when you are preparing the next radio campaign or TV commercial, perhaps putting together a new Explainer Video or simply updating the telephone On Hold program make sure you invest the time in choosing the most suitable voice.
