Irish Gaelic in a voice-over brief

Irish has three main dialect regions, Munster, Connacht and Ulster, and an official standard used in schools and public bodies. Its spelling does not match English expectations: a name like Siobhán sounds nothing like it looks to a learner. Irish names and place names appear in English-language projects too. A brief states which dialect is wanted, whether the text follows the standard and whether an English version will be recorded.

Accent and direction notes

What our director listens for in a Irish Gaelic session.

Three dialects

Names have set spoken forms.

What casting decides in Irish Gaelic

Dialect or standard
Public content uses the standard.
Irish and English pairs
Most projects run in both.

How we work

Casting
We shortlist voices for your language, audience and tone, and explain the difference between them. You choose, and approve a written quote.
Direction
A director runs the session against your brief: meaning, pace and every agreed pronunciation. You can listen in remotely.
Delivery
Every file is checked against the script word by word and technically, then delivered in your format and naming.

What decides the price

No price list: every quote is written for your project and states usage and the delivery date.

Length: Word count or running time of the finished audio.
Use and territory: Internal, online or broadcast; where it runs and for how long.
Voice: Some languages and voice profiles are scarcer than others.
Picture and files: Recording to timecode, splitting and naming add work.
