5 Tips For Recording Voiceovers
Mar 24th, 2012 | By James Lewin | Category: Audio Podcasting, Podcasting
The Pro Tools Expert blog has shared their take on 5 tips for recording great voiceovers that apply directly to podcasts.
They include:
- Banish (computers) to a separate room or to a specially designed cupboard.
- The room needs to be as dead as possible, especially at mid and high frequencies.
- Don’t record in front of a table. The reflections off the table will colour the sound. Radio broadcasters use special ‘acoustic’ tables which are acoustically transparent.
- Make sure the page turns in the script are placed so that the VO artist doesn’t have to turn the page in the middle of a line.
- Make sure the VO artist has a glass of fresh still water to keep everything lubricated and sometimes an apple can help to reduce mouth clicks that won’t go away with a drink.
Most of these seem obvious, but you still hear plenty of podcasts that could benefit from them.

The fast and furious 8 is going to be one hell of a movie and I can’t wait for it to come out in April. With Charlize Theron and Helen Mirren joining the cast, The fast and furious franchise has been pushed to a whole new level. Really looking forward to it.
Movies that earn more than $1 billion worldwide tend to produce sequels. As such, Fast and Furious 8 was a no-brainer. Yet, the ridiculously lucrative Furious 7 ended with real closure.
