Voiceover Styles
We pride ourselves on ensuring that we deliver what the author is looking for regarding the style of delivery. This is done by having an initial consultation to determine the age/ethnicity and other key factors about your characters and whether or not each will be voiced uniquely as a character or if the delivery will be done with one narrator's voice or a combination of the options only uniquely voicing certain characters. Even the narrator's voice style can be selected by the author. Reference the link below for samples of our work and our culturally diverse talent pool.

Fully Voiced Narration
Fully-Voiced Reading (solo narration)A fully-voiced reading is probably the most commonly recognized style of reading. This is a style in which all of the characters are vocalized in a dramatic fashion or in a way that makes the characters distinguishable from one another.
Partially voiced narration
A partially-voiced reading is one where the voiced production (usually done by one narrator) focuses on giving certain characters a distinguishable voice – most commonly the protagonists or any character who has a distinctive voice in the narration. This could be a great option if you have many characters – in which putting on a voice for every single character could become a bit complex – so instead you select only certain characters to be voiced differently from one another. Remember that characters do not need to sound dramatically different from one another.
Genres best suited for this style of narration: General fiction, Action, Mystery, Fantasy.
SOLO NARRATION (Unvoiced reading)
Despite the name – this style of narration is not silent. In this reading style, the narrator reads the story in a natural, more straightforward tone. There are no changes in voice for different characters. The story is told in the narrator’s voice and the whole book is usually voiced by one voice actor. This is the best option if you are looking for a more natural sounding narration. Generally, an unvoiced reading, without any vocal dramatizations, is great for works in which you would like to adopt a more serious, or entertaining tone, without the dramatics. In certain genres, too many characters can be distracting.
