Using Voice Talent For Meetings & Events

So what is a voice talent?

A voice talent is the person you hear, but don’t see.  They could be the movie trailer voice, the voice of the loading zone at the airport, video game voices, radio voices, television voices, trade show kiosk voices and more.

We’ve all heard the voice talent say “Ladies and Gentlemen, please be seated” and the infamous “Please welcome your CEO…” at many meetings and events, but what can it do for you?

A professional voice talent can:

  • Keep your production at a professional level
  • Be a great substitute when you don’t have a budget for a professional master of ceremonies
  • Narrate your videos
  • Brand your event (before, during, and after)

I’ve posted some generic “please be seated” voice overs below for you to use.  Download them here and use them in your production today!  They are in WAV format and can be transferred into your playback system of choice (Instant Replay, iTunes, CD).  Need something customized for your conference or event?  Contact me and I will be happy to help you out.
