Submit a Script for Voice Over Recording

Submit a Script for Voice Over Recording

If you already have a script and need a professional voice to record it, you can submit your script directly to Spencer Cork for review.

Your script does not necessarily need to be completely finished before you make contact.

You can send:

• A completed script ready for recording

• A draft script still being developed

• A short script

• A long-form narration script

• A script requiring a voice over quote

• A script with a fixed budget

• A script without an agreed budget

• An urgent script requiring fast turnaround

The most useful starting point is simply to provide the script together with some basic information about the project.

What Does It Mean to Submit a Script for Voice Over Recording?

Submitting a script means sending the written words you would like professionally recorded so the voice over requirement can be assessed.

The script helps establish the scope of the recording.

Depending on the project, it can also help determine:

• Approximate recording length

• Performance requirements

• Pronunciation requirements

• Number of audio files

• Editing requirements

• Expected turnaround

• Whether additional information is required

The intended usage of the recording may also be relevant when determining the project requirements and quotation.

Can I Send My Voice Over Script Directly to a Voice Artist?

Yes.

You can send your script directly to Spencer Cork without first using a voice over agency or online casting platform.

Direct script submission can be particularly useful when you already know the type of voice you require and want to discuss the project directly with the person who may record it.

What Information Should I Send With My Script?

Where possible, provide:

• The script

• A brief description of the project

• Where the recording will be used

• The intended audience

• The required deadline

• The approximate number of audio files

• Any pronunciation guidance

• Any timing requirements

• Your available or expected budget, if known

You do not need to have every detail available before making an initial enquiry.

If something important is missing, it can be clarified before recording begins.

Does My Script Need to Be Finished?

No.

You can submit a draft script if the final version is still being prepared.

Explain that the script is provisional and indicate whether you expect significant changes.

A draft can still provide useful information about:

• Approximate word count

• Project type

• Recording length

• Voice style

• Production requirements

The final script should normally be confirmed before the final recording takes place.

Can I Send a Script Just to Get a Voice Over Quote?

Yes.

If you are not ready to book but need to understand the likely recording cost, send the script with the available project information.

If the script is not final, make this clear.

You can also explain whether the quote is required for:

• Internal budget approval

• Client approval

• Production planning

• Procurement

• Comparing project options

Providing the actual script can make it easier to understand the scale of the recording requirement.

Can I Submit a Script Without Knowing My Voice Over Budget?

Yes.

You do not need to know exactly what a professional voice over should cost before making an enquiry.

Send the script and explain how the completed recording will be used.

The project can then be considered according to its actual requirements.

If you already have a proposed, fixed or maximum budget, you can provide that information as part of the enquiry.

Can I Submit a Script With a Small Budget?

Yes.

If you have a genuine fixed amount available, provide the script and state the budget clearly.

A smaller budget does not automatically mean that you should avoid making an enquiry.

Whether a project can be accepted will depend on factors including the script, usage, deadline and production requirements.

Can I Submit a Short Voice Over Script?

Yes.

Short scripts are welcome.

A professional voice over project does not necessarily need to involve hundreds or thousands of words.

Short recording requirements may include:

• Online videos

• Social media content

• Commercials

• Telephone prompts

• Voicemail messages

• Public announcements

• Intros and outros

• Podcast elements

• Radio imaging

• Individual lines or phrases

Provide the complete requirement so the project can be assessed accurately.

Can I Submit a Long Voice Over Script?

Yes.

Longer scripts can also be submitted for consideration.

These may include:

• Corporate narration

• eLearning

• Training material

• Documentary narration

• Audio guides

• Presentations

• Long-form video

• Audiobooks

For larger projects, it is useful to provide the approximate total word count and explain how the audio needs to be delivered.

Can I Submit an Urgent Script?

Yes.

If the script is ready and the recording is urgent, state the required deadline clearly.

Same-day or fast-turnaround recording may be possible depending on studio availability and the size and complexity of the project.

Do not assume that an urgent project cannot be considered.

Send the script and deadline so availability can be checked.

Can I Submit a Script for Recording Today?

You can make an enquiry for same-day recording.

Whether the project can be completed that day will depend on availability and the recording requirements.

Providing the complete script immediately makes it easier to assess what is possible.

Can I Submit a Script for Recording Tomorrow?

Yes.

Send the script together with the required delivery time.

Can I Submit a Script for Weekend Recording?

You can submit a project requiring weekend recording.

Provide the script and required deadline so availability can be confirmed.

Can I Submit a Script for a Commercial Voice Over?

Yes.

Provide the script and explain how the commercial will be distributed.

Relevant information may include:

• Media

• Territory

• Campaign duration

This helps establish the actual usage of the recording.

Can I Submit a Corporate Video Script?

Yes.

Provide the script and explain where the completed video will be used.

This might include:

• Company websites

• Presentations

• Internal communications

• Conferences

• Social media

• Public-facing marketing

Can I Submit an eLearning Script?

Yes.

For eLearning projects, provide the script or estimated word count together with information about:

• Number of modules

• Number of files

• File naming requirements

• Pronunciations

• Delivery structure

Can I Submit a Documentary Script?

Yes.

Provide the available narration script and information about the intended production.

Can I Submit a Telephone or IVR Script?

Yes.

Telephone scripts may include:

• IVR prompts

• Auto-attendant messages

• On-hold messages

• Voicemail greetings

• Out-of-hours messages

• Call queue announcements

Explain how you need the individual prompts divided and which audio format your telephone system requires.

Can I Submit a Video Game Script?

Yes.

Provide information about the character or role, the number of lines and any performance requirements.

If the project involves character voices, explain the desired personality and vocal direction.

Can I Submit a Script With Pronunciation Notes?

Yes.

Include pronunciation guidance for:

• Names

• Brands

• Places

• Technical terminology

• Acronyms

• Foreign-language words

Reference audio can also be useful where a particular pronunciation is important.

Can I Send a Reference Recording With My Script?

Yes.

A reference recording can help communicate broad characteristics such as:

• Pace

• Energy

• Tone

• Delivery style

• Overall creative direction

The objective is to understand the qualities required for your project rather than reproduce another person's unique voice.

Can I Ask for a Custom Audition From My Script?

You can ask whether a short custom sample is appropriate for the project.

Provide the section of the script you would like considered and explain the required voice direction.

Can I Submit the Same Script to More Than One Voice Artist?

Yes.

If you are still selecting a voice for your project, you may approach different voice artists.

If you are specifically interested in working with Spencer Cork, you can also submit the script directly for individual consideration.

What File Format Should I Use for My Script?

Common formats include:

• Microsoft Word

• PDF

• Plain text

• Text pasted directly into an enquiry

If your script includes tables, pronunciation notes, timing instructions or multiple speakers, use a format that keeps the structure clear.

Should I Include Stage Directions?

Yes, where they are relevant to the performance.

Make it clear which words should be recorded and which text represents production or performance instructions.

Should I Include Timecodes?

If the voice over needs to fit an existing video or production, include relevant timing information.

You may also provide a reference video or temporary voice track where appropriate.

What Happens After I Submit My Script?

The script and project information can be reviewed to establish:

• What needs to be recorded

• Whether additional information is required

• The intended usage

• The production requirements

• The likely turnaround

• The appropriate project cost

If the project is suitable and the requirements are agreed, the recording can then be scheduled.

Do I Have to Book Immediately After Submitting a Script?

No.

Submitting a script for an initial enquiry or quotation does not automatically commit you to a recording.

The project should proceed once the requirements and relevant terms have been agreed.

Can Agencies and Production Companies Submit Scripts?

Yes.

Agencies, production companies, video producers, filmmakers and creative teams can submit scripts directly.

Provide any available creative brief, usage information and delivery requirements.

Can Small Businesses Submit Voice Over Scripts?

Yes.

You do not need to be a large company or agency to submit a project.

Can Independent Creators Submit Scripts?

Yes.

Independent filmmakers, YouTube creators, podcasters, developers and other creators can submit professional voice over requirements directly.

Can I Submit a Script From Outside the UK?

Yes.

Voice over projects can be recorded remotely for clients in the United Kingdom, Europe and worldwide.

The recording can be delivered digitally.

Why Submit the Actual Script?

The script is often the clearest way to begin a meaningful conversation about a voice over project.

Instead of trying to describe the requirement only in general terms, the actual words provide useful context.

A script can help answer practical questions about:

• Length

• Complexity

• Performance

• Pronunciation

• Timing

• Production

Additional information about usage, deadline and deliverables can then complete the project brief.
