A World of Voices |
In a global market, you need local content. Whether you’re talking to employees or customers, suppliers or business partners, the UniQode voice talent agency can take your message and give it the right voice. The native voice.
We specialize in providing foreign language and local accent voice-overs for any communications medium – from training videos and sales presentations to radio commercials and multimedia applications. By working with foreign voice talent from all over the world, we can take content created for one market and make it work in any other – maximizing your communications reach and targeting content for specific countries or communities.
Are you looking for German voices? Spanish voices? A Chinese voice over or British voice talent? Talk to UniQode, or check out our voice-over samples online. We have an ever-expanding database of professional and amateur foreign voice over narrators available to record within 24 hours.
Our systems are simple. Our voice over talents are available. Our pricing is competitive.
With UniQode, you don’t need to worry about looking for resources, accessing voice samples to verify their native accent or scheduling studios. One call or email to us and we’ll take the job from inception to completion.
We can even arrange for you to be involved during recording – allowing you to direct the voice-talent in real-time as the voice-over is created.
TranslationWe also provide a range of translation and proofing services – so if you’re unfamiliar with the destination language of your script, we’ll take the source material and ensure it’s translated accurately. From websites to sales documents, UniQode can take any text and make it fit it any market.
We price every job on an individual basis – always aiming to get you the best deal possible based on cost variations in local (foreign) markets and the experience of the voice talent artists themselves.
Factors to consider when pricing a project include:
- Experience level of the talent. Do you want professional or semi professional? If you’re on a limited budget and your recording doesn’t require advanced skills, you can use a semi-professional voice talent to keep the costs low. Alternatively, your project can have greater impact if employing the skills of professional actors and voice over artists.
- The length of your script. Some projects require long audio tracks, some shorter – and this is reflected in the final cost.
- Specific requirements of your recording (ie do you want a child’s voice? Special sound effects? Lip-synching?)
For a detailed quote, please give us a call or send an email. We can provide different options to match your budget.
Depending on the voice talent we will get your recording done either in the U.S or at the voice talent's location. UniQode works with studio partner Super Digital, a professional recording studio located right in the heart of Portland, which has years of experience with voice over recordings for online corporate trainings, and multi media presentations.
Whether in the US or abroad, our studio engineers can assist you with a variety of projects spanning narration, video training and presentations, to software tutorials, web site audios and more.
If I pick a voice talent from your database, do I need to find a studio for the recording?
No. Leave that to us. The only thing you need to do is to provide us with recording requirements and we’ll take care of the rest.
Can you translate our scripts as well?
Of course. To make it easier for our clients, UniQode voice provides translation services for scripts and other recording documentation. The rate will vary depending on the language and the duration of the script.
Can I have a famous voice talent record for me?
Yes. We can provide you with voice talents whose voices are well known by the community you’re targeting.
How do you make sure that a voice talent has a true native accent ?
Being a native speaker is not proof of a native accent. Many people tend to lose their accent after living abroad for a long period of time. When working with foreign voice talents located in the Unites States, we make sure they still have their true native accents by verifying their voice samples with other native speakers.
What payment method do you accept?
You can either pay with Paypal or by credit card.
What if I can’t afford a professional voice talent?
Each project is unique in terms of budget and complexity. For this reason we work with a wide variety of voice talents. The UniQode database includes voices of famous people from the target countries, professional voice talents, semi professionals and amateurs in order to match different budgetary needs.
How long does it take to do the recording?
It all depends on the length of your script and project specific requirements. Please contact us for detailed information
What if I can’t find the language I’m looking for on your web site?
On our web site you’ll find voice samples of languages that we receive most inquires for. If you’re looking for a voice talent from a country that isn’t mentioned, please contact us and we’ll source it for you.
Do you work with union or non-union voice talents?
UniQode works with non-union voice talent which makes pricing more affordable. However, if you want to use a specific artist, we can partner with their agent regardless of their union status.
Can I have a voice talent record in the studio of my choice?
Yes. If all you need is a voice talent, please contact us and we will try to locate a voice talent in your area.
What if I made some changes to the script and would like a voice talent to re-record?
In some cases our clients decide to modify scripts after the initial recording was done. Therefore, we always make sure that the voice talent is available within a week after the original recording date (additional fess apply).
