How to select the right pitch and attitude
A voice must align with your brand's identity and the message you are conveying. As a healthcare-related company, you don't want a loud, loud advertising guy. In that case, you look for a voice like Gwenny, which sounds natural and familiar. For a more upbeat, younger audience, the soft and friendly sound of Kirsten (known from StuBru) works excellently.
Pay attention to these three criteria during the selection process:
Determine the role: is the voice a guide, an expert, or a friendly neighbor?
Match with the target audience: a French-speaking Belgian target audience requires a different dynamic; a voice actress like Veronique can perfectly switch between soft and dynamic there.
Test multilingualism: do you have an international campaign? Machteld is a native speaker of four languages and has over 15 years of experience, which saves you a lot of casting work.
The director's tip: direct the silence and the smile
As a voice director, I see it happen every day: a voice actor is instructed to be 'enthusiastic' and suddenly starts shouting. That is not what you want. The best way to capture warmth and sincerity is to have the voice actor smile while speaking. You literally hear that smile in the microphone. Also, ask them to breathe calmly. The breaths between sentences make a recording human. Don't cut them all out during editing, because then the voice sounds like a robot. An experienced voice actor like Johfrah masters these nuances perfectly, giving his voice an immediate sense of trust and credibility.
Why speed and follow-up are just as important as the talent
Recording a good voice is one thing, but the surrounding service determines whether your project succeeds without stress. Our clients, like Stijn, often note that fast delivery is the key to a smooth production. If you order on Friday and already have the finished recordings by Tuesday, you can keep working. It is all about short lines of communication and direct follow-up. No endless email chains, but quick and accurate coordination.
