Tagalog in a voice-over brief

Tagalog is the base of Filipino, the national language of the Philippines. Written in Latin letters, it uses particles that signal politeness and tone. In cities, speakers mix in English so often that the mix has its own name, Taglish. A script must decide how much English belongs and how formal the voice should be. Customer-service prompts, advertising and public information are frequent projects. We ask the audience, the register and the treatment of English, and a native reviewer checks the script.

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.
