Voice overs help you to connect better with your target audience. Although most people agree that producing quality and professional voice-overs requires a lot of effort, it’s totally worth it. People are attracted and learn more from the content that tends to solve their problems. But there are common mistakes in voice over production that cause failures. Let’s now focus on mistakes that makes a voice-over to fail;

• Low Production Quality: Poor quality voice-over implies non-professionalism. Audiences are always put off from listening to voice overs if they are of poor quality. By poor quality, I mean having background noises, not clearly heard, content does not make sense, etc. To produce high-quality voice over you need to avoid using built-in microphone gadgets because they pick up background noises and other distracting factors.
• Wrong Tone Usage: Using the wrong tone can easily sound annoying and drive your audience away. Depending on the content, a different tone can be used. For instance, the tone in movie trailers voice over is different from an e-learning voice over. Therefore, tone variations can influence desirability and can either imply trustworthiness, friendliness, or such. To choose the right tone that corresponds with your context, the first thing you should determine is the style of your voice over. Is it an explainer video, a documentary, an animated cartoon or what? Determine what dimension of the tone of voice to apply, it can be humour, respectfulness, formality, and enthusiasm.
• Applying a Non-conversational Language: When scripting your voice-over, try to make your writing conversational by using You, I, and We to connect you to your audience and to appear more friendly.
• Not Fitting into a Given Time Frame: A voice actor is required to match the scenes on-screen, and it’s important to fit in a given timeframe. Hence, the pace of script reading is most important as the tone. To avoid such timing issues, write a timeline that includes the scripts and the descriptions of scenes.
• Contradicting Yourself in the Content: Inconsistent script causes confusion and uncertainty. Therefore, it is important to stick with the message content in your voice over to avoid contradicting yourself in your speech. To prevent yourself from contradicting yourself, take your time to write out your script as this will enable you to cover everything you intend to talk about.
• Using Improper Narration Pace: Some people may record a script in such a rush that at the end of the script you might end up remembering nothing about what they were saying or others use a monotonous tone slowly and you get bored and distracted. To solve a wrong speech narration pace, count your words over the minutes of your video to find a perfect speech rate. Practice more to get familiar with the pacing, try as much as possible to sound natural. Also, take as much time to understand your script and the topic very well.
• Saving in a Wrong File Format: Recording a high-quality voice-over and saving it in the wrong format can be inappropriate and you might end up losing it. Also, it can show a lack of professionalism. Try saving your voice over files in a valid and professional style.

Try to avoid the above mistakes in the recording and production of voice-overs and let you craft quality content. Also, be mindful to properly prepare for the recording, editing, and finalizing your voice over content. Also, remember finding the right voice actor for your project calls for careful calculations. A voice-over artist should be the one who is on the same page as you in terms of everything from skills to deadlines and who can show that they are capable of working on your project. Know your brand and how it is supposed to sound as well as how your brand will engage with your audience before looking for a voice actor. Knowing what specifics you are looking for will help you select voice styles and roles that match your job descriptions.
