Voice over demos

Listen first. Then decide.

Every voice on the site has demos by category, so you hear a commercial read for a commercial and a narration for a narration. And when the demo is close, they read your actual script for free.

How to listen to a demo

What the pros listen for.

The first ten seconds

A good demo opens with the read the voice is booked for most. If the opening isn't the sound you need, move on; the rest rarely changes your mind.

Your kind of script

A great commercial voice can be a poor narrator. Listen to the demo in the category you are hiring for, not the main reel, and judge that.

The room behind the voice

Listen past the words for hiss, echo or a thin sound. What you hear on the demo is the studio your files will come from.

How hiring works here

Three steps, no middleman.

You deal with the voice, the site holds the money, and the price is the one on the rate card before you start.

1

Post a casting, or pick a voice

Paste a few lines of your script and post a free casting; voices who suit it read those lines back to you. Already heard the one you want? Book them straight from their profile.

2

Choose from real reads

Auditions arrive as recordings of your words in their voice, usually within hours. Pick the one that fits, or none of them. Nothing is owed until you book.

Demos are free to play and so is a custom audition of your script: how free auditions work.

Questions people ask

Questions about demos.

Can I hear a voice read my own script before I pay?
Yes. Post a free casting with a few lines of your script and voices who suit it record those lines for you. Or ask one voice directly from their profile. Either way there is nothing to pay until you book.
How long is a voice over demo?
Sixty to ninety seconds for a main reel, shorter for a category demo. Long demos are a warning sign; the strongest voices know you have decided by the second read.
Are the demos recorded in the voice's own studio?
Almost always, which is the point. The demo is a fair sample of the sound and the studio you will get on the job, not a showcase cut in a hired room.
Can I download a demo?
Demos play on the site. If you need a file to share with a client or a committee, post a casting and the auditions of your own script arrive as downloadable files.
