Having a vision is the most important step to success. But, while having a vision can compensate for the lack of many other shortcomings, it is usually not enough to get your project rolling, especially if you’re inexperienced. Fortunately, we’ve got a list of six online voice-over services that will help you wrap your project up in no time!

Voices123

First up, we’ve got Voices123, the world’s number one voice-over marketplace, to quote the company in its own words. This service has been around for about two decades now, so the team behind it has got a downright ridiculous amount of experience under their belt. Because of its simple yet effective business model, many video game designers, marketing specialists, and e-learning enthusiasts use Voices123.  How does it work? Well, it’s essentially a voice actor marketplace, as the site’s very slogan says. The way it works is simple: you either look around for voice-over talent, or you post your project for others to contact you should it catch their eye. Considering we’re dealing with a market for all sorts of voice-over jobs and not a piece of software, there are no set prices. Instead, you can browse around for voice-over artists that fit your budget. Of course, you can filter them by age and gender and take a listen to their demo samples as well to get exactly what you’re looking for.

Bunny Studio

Next up, we’ve got Bunny Studio, a voice-acting freelance page. Although it’s similar to Voices123, you can find more than just voice-over work at Bunny Studio. If you’re looking for gigs in audio ads, dubbing, and translation, you’ll feel right at home over at Bunny Studio. As we’ve said in the context of Voices123, the freelance market model is sure to attract both project managers and aspiring voice-over actors, so you can rest assured that you’ll find the right voice for your project, be it a podcast, an audiobook, or a YouTube explainer video. As for the pricing, it will all again depend on your budget and the actor you choose. What’s cool about Bunny Studio is that it offers unlimited revisions for just one payment! Of course, before picking an artist, listen to their voice recordings and demo reels to get a good idea of what kind of work they’re capable of so that you don’t have to lose time on revisions later on.

Voices.com

Third up, we’ve got Voices.com, another freelance platform. What’s cool about this one is that it lets you browse voice-over professionals according to their location. If you’re in New York, Los Angeles, or any other bigger city, you can potentially conduct your business in person. Voices has been around since 2005, and the team behind it has collaborated with some of the biggest names in the tech and shopping industry, so they obviously mean business. If it’s good for Microsoft, Hulu, and BMW, it’s definitely good for your voice-over projects, no matter whether you’re a beginner or a pro. Once more, the rates will depend on your needs and who you choose to work with. Luckily, since there are a lot of job opportunities at Voices.com, you will find the perfect voice actor in time and for the price that you can afford.

Fiverr

Coming in at number 4, we’ve Fiverr. Sure, it’s not a voice talent agency or an audition show, but Fiverr is one of the most famous freelance platforms, so we simply can’t leave it out. And remember: the more famous a place is, the more people it attracts, so you’re bound to find someone doing pretty much professional voice-over work from their home studio. Registering at Fiverr is free, and so is posting a gig, so you really have nothing to lose by giving it a shot, especially if you’re looking to do some work in a foreign language. Finding professional voice actors from abroad on your own is challenging, even when using something like Linkedin, but Fiverr removes both the distance and the language barrier from the equation, so you simply have to give it a shot.

Bodalgo

Our final freelance page for today is Bodalgo, a rather massive platform for voice-over marketing gigs as well as audio production and post-production work. When we say massive, we really mean it — there are thousands of people offering their services in 80 languages at Bodalgo, many of them native speakers. How it works is simply: you register (for free), post a gig, and receive audition tapes and offers from countless strangers. Since there are so many people at Bodalgo, you can use it for everything from e-learning to corporate movie-making. By now, it goes without saying that the pricing will depend on who you choose to work with, so we won’t repeat ourselves yet again.

Speechify

Now, if you’re looking for something that will test your own voice-over-making skills, you can ditch freelance platforms and go for an actual voice-over app. There are plenty of choices out there, but we’d like to recommend Speechify. Speechify is a text to speech (TTS) tool initially designed to help those with dyslexia, but it’s got its uses in other areas as well, including voice-over making. The main quality Speechify has to offer is that it lets you turn everything into an audiobook. You can import e-book files and have them read to you by fantastic AI voices, or you can import books from Audible to tune them up. The app supports dozens of languages and features authentic, human-like voices, so your voice-overs are going to sound pristine, especially if you play around with some of the customizable settings to adjust the reading speed, tone, pitch, and accents.
