Send a Voice Over Brief for a Quote

If you have a voice over project and would like to know the cost of professional recording, send your project brief directly to British voice over artist Spencer Cork.

You do not necessarily need a final script before making an initial enquiry. If you can explain what the project is, where the recording will be used, the approximate amount of content and when you need it, there may already be enough information to begin discussing the project.

If your script is ready, include it. If it is still being written, provide the information you currently have.

Spencer Cork is a professional British male voice over artist recording from a broadcast-quality studio in Kent, UK. Businesses, agencies, producers and clients worldwide can make direct enquiries about professional voice over recording without first using an agent or voice over marketplace.

Send your voice over brief and project details through the Spencer Cork contact page.
