IMPORTANT NOTE:

Providing a quote for voiceover is tough. There's a lot of nuances to every quote, so the best way to get an accurate quote is to drop me an email!
There's a lot of text below, so I'm more than happy to explain personally.

Basic Session Fee (Corporate, Web, Explainer)

Every project (excluding pickups) is priced at a minimum basic session fee of £150. From there, every project is quoted differently (too much to type here!). My rates roughly follow the GVAA Rate Guide which provides detailed rates on different scripts, usage and styles of VO.

​

Every project priced at the BSF includes:

​

  • Broadcast quality recording, edited and mixed to specification

  • Full de-breathed and de-noised voiceover

  • Delivery within 24 hours (subject to availability and script length)

  • Up to 3 revisions included in the price (revisions due to errors on my part don't count towards this - they're free!)

  • Pre-prep and consultation, if needed.

  • A live directed session - once per project.

Usage Fees (Organic, Online Advertising, TV, etc)

Usage fees is where pricing becomes complicated. Project usage quotes are based off a number of factors:

​​

  • Estimated reach (the amount of people who will see your project, as a rough estimate)

  • Number of territories in which it will be shown 

  • Number of platforms it will be hosted on (TV? Radio? Facebook Ads?)

  • Duration of campaign, if paid

​

For specific information on your project's usage quote, please send me an email - once again, the GVAA Rate Guide will provide a good 'ball-park' estimate.

​​​

Full 'buyout' rights are possible, but this is again something that will need to be ironed out via email.

Other Kinds of Projects

Unfortunately, I do not take on audiobook projects. I would recommend looking for a VO artist who specialises in such an area for this!

​

Please be aware for project such as eLearning, the rate will be per word - however, the minimum quote will always be the BSF (£150), unless it is a pickup.

​

​

Payment Terms

Once we have agreed on a project and work has commenced, you'll be delivered an invoice - all invoices that I provide for clients are subject to NET30 terms with bank transfer details included. If you wish to use PayPal, please mention this in advance. Note that PayPal payments will incur a 6% charge to cover the fees for using this service.

​

Please be aware that any invoices not processed within the 30 days will be subject to late fees as per the Late Payment of Commercial Debt Act of 2002. If you believe you may take longer than 30 days to process the invoice, you must let me know prior to creating the invoice.

Other Notes (Revisions, Directed Sessions)

I'm happy to jump into a live directed session with, included with the BSF. Please note, however, that any further directed sessions needed under the same project (e.g for pickups) will be charged at a rate of £35 per hour.

​

​As mentioned above, all projects under BSF include up to 3 revisions* in the price. Beyond this, please be aware that further revisions will be charged at a rate of 50% of the BSF for minor changes, with major changes (full re-writes, large section changes) priced differently, subject to size.

​

*Revisions that will incur extra cost include

  • re-reads

  • re-writes

  • alt lines

Revision that will NOT incur extra cost include:

  • messy speech

  • mis-pronunciations

  • mis-reads

Once again, for specific project quotes - the best option is ALWAYS to get in touch.
