Nahuatl in a voice-over brief

Nahuatl comprises a number of related varieties spoken in Mexico, historically the language of the Aztec empire. Modern varieties differ from one another and from classical Nahuatl, and spelling conventions vary. Education, cultural heritage and public information are typical uses. We ask for the exact variety and community, who within the community will review the script and whether a Spanish version should be recorded, and we confirm what is available before we quote.

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.
