Voice-over translation is a common requirement in different media. For classical movies, the sound is normally voiced by at least four actors. The voice artists try to match the original voice and preserve the intonation. The main reason for the use of this type of translation is that, unlike synchronized voice translation, it takes a relatively short time to produce as there is no need to synchronize the voices with the character’s lip movements, which is compensated by the quieted original audio. When there is no speaking in the film for some time, the original sound is turned up. Are you not quite sure about the difference between voice-over and dubbing? Read the blog ‘Voice-over vs Dubbing’

Globibo checks the Voice-over samples of a particular artist to check the tone, accent, and clarity in his/her voice. The Voice-over artist must be understandable to the customers, and if possible with the same accent or language. For example, the English language accent could be either British or American.
Globibo then checks the experience of the voice-over talent, if the person is matching the requirements of a particular project.
It is necessary to ascertain the target audience. For example, if the advertisement is for the younger generation, then a Voice-over artist with a child’s voice would be preferable. But of course, some Voice-over artists can mimic just about anyone!
Step 1: Analysis – Globibo’s initial step is to perform a feasibility analysis where we collect the information about the industry type, target audience, company background, language, the requirements of translation (if any), file type, the format required for the final file, and any particular preference for the Voice-over artist. Based on this, we can develop the quotation and turnaround time for the client.
Step 2: Execution – Here, the actual Voice-over begins where the finalized language expert starts the Voice-over. The approach we follow to ensure flexibility for future changes are: a) The project manager and voice artist review the voice-over script. b) The team suggests an audio file structure. c) The suggestion is reviewed by the technical team to calibrate reusability/modularity
Step 3: Verification and Validation – After receiving the Voice-over file from the Voice-over artist, the project manager verifies and validates the file and checks if all the requirements are met.
Step 4: Document collection – Receive the file from the client and review completeness.
Step 5: Artist screening – In this step, the project manager, after analyzing the requirements and industry type of the client, shortlists Voice-over artists and shares the profile as well as previous Voice-over samples with the client for screening.
Step 6: Final File – Once the verification is done by the project manager, he or she proceeds to release the final files.
Step 7: Feedback – Our process does not end at the submission of the final file. We very much value the feedback of our customers to provide the best customer service and improve in future projects.
Different types of requirements require different types of voice-over approaches & techniques. Globibo supports the following types of voice-over:
