And how do I work?
01
Voice over
Voiceover services range from recording a short tagline for your service or product: a 15 or 30 second commercial text; an emotional company manifest lasting a few minutes; or a narration or training session lasting several hours.
To record your script, I will need you to send me the file with the text and also instructions on what you expect, i.e., written or audio directions, a reference video you've seen online, background music you want to use to set the mood of the voiceover, or even one of my recordings with a tone you like.
If the text is short, I usually record more than one version, and delivery is generally in WAV or MP3 format, depending on your needs.
02
Dubbing
Dubbing involves recording a text that has been translated into Portuguese, maintaining lip-sync with the original video; in other words, you get the impression that the actor in the video is speaking Portuguese. For this to work, it's important that the text is adapted for dubbing. If your text was translated literally, or by AI, or by Google Translate, or if you only have Portuguese subtitles generated by some unknown means, it's important to know that I will have to review and certainly adapt your text so that it "fits" the recording and the result is satisfactory. This adaptation requires time and will alter the text without, however, changing its main meaning.
03
Voiceover
Before starting it is important to explain that in Portuguese there are two different words to differentiate two different services: "Locução" which is voiceover for the normal commercial recordings and "Voiceover" which is a bit different of dubbing except for the fact that it hasn't lip-synch. Here I will explain this second "Voiceover". Many people make confusion between voiceover and dubbing, as both involves a voice speaking in Portuguese over a video in another language. However, the difference lies in the fact that dubbing aims to give the impression that the video is spoken in Portuguese, while in voiceover you still hear the original, albeit slightly quieter, and the Portuguese narration begins shortly after the original and ends slightly before, clearly giving the impression of a translated narration over it. To better illustrate, it's like the narration in some documentaries.
04
Original voice (Character voice)
Original voice acting is often confused with dubbing, but as mentioned above, dubbing is done using original material in another language, while original voice acting is the creation of a character originally in Portuguese, meaning it's an original Brazilian product. The similarity to dubbing lies in the fact that you can create a voice for a character, that's all, and generally, the animation is created after the voice has been recorded. However, this isn't necessarily a rule, especially when a company asks a creative team to generate an animation and then wants the text to be recorded over the image. It's still original voice acting, as there's no substitution of another language, but it will use dubbing techniques to achieve the appropriate lip-sync, and in this case, the text may need adaptation.
