How we work
Casting
We shortlist native voices who suit publishing audiences and agree tone, pace and pronunciation with you first.
Direction
A director runs the session against your brief: meaning, pace and every agreed pronunciation. You can listen in remotely.
Delivery
Files checked word by word against the script and delivered in the format and naming you specify.
Publishing voice-over questions

Do you proof?
A second listener checks each chapter.
