1. It may seem easy to read words into a cassette recorder, but subconsciously your audience is listening not only to the words, but also to the presentation. Ninety-four percent of our communication is nonverbal. It has been shown that if these nonverbal cues are missing in your Voice-Over, your listener can miss as much as seventy-five percent of the meaning.

2. Listeners will associate an unprofessional Voice-Over with your company’s attention to detail.

3. A professional talent is experienced in projecting these non-verbal cues.

See if you can tell what the talent is conveying by using non-verbal cues.

4. A professional studio records the voice of the Voice-Over talent at the correct frequencies that brings out the talents best sound with no background noise.
