Malay in a voice-over brief
Malay is the national language of Malaysia and Brunei and an official language of Singapore. Malaysian Malay and Indonesian share a common origin, but spelling, vocabulary and rhythm differ, and listeners hear the difference. Written in Latin letters, it is polite in public settings and relaxed in advertising. Urban speakers mix in English. A brief names the country, the register and the English words that stay, and a native reviewer checks the text before recording.

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

- Voice
- Some languages and voice profiles are scarcer than others.
- Picture and files
- Recording to timecode, splitting and naming add work.
