Style, Tone, Pace and Other Voice Over Keys to Matching Your Message

Dennis LM Lewis provides the voice to several different types of voiceover. Each type of voiceover requires a different approach in style, tone, or other element in order for the message or story to fully impact the listener.

You’ll need to carefully consider the vocal qualities you want in order to ensure that a voice will resonate with your listeners. You’ll need to know how to communicate with your voice actor.

Communicating with a voice actor can be daunting sometimes – especially if you or your business are not used to the ins and outs of booking and directing a voice over session.

Communication doesn’t have to be intimidating or hard. If you’re familiar with some of the terms and methods of voice over production, you’ll be on the same page as your voice actor. You’ll both be speaking the same language, and you’ll be able to make sure that your voice over recording project is a success.

Here, then, are some key terms and methods involved in voice over production.

Style

Style is the descriptive term for the way a voice actor reads script and emotions that are being evoked. Here are some of the most commonly-cited styles:

• Hard-sell
• Soft-sell
• Persuasive
• Angry
• Whispery
• Aggressive
• Humorous
• Happy
• Kind
• Friendly
• Girl-next-door
• Boy-next-door, etc.

Tone

Tone is all about the voice actor’s tone of voice or attitude. It’s the way a voice actor speaks. The term is closely related to style because tone and style have an impact on one another. A voice actor’s tone can be crucial in a voice over project, especially when there are re-reads (or pick-ups) of certain parts of a script which stretch across more than one session. While it can be challenging to do, premium voice actors should be able to match their tone from a previous session.

Pace

Pace means the speed at which a voice actor reads, or it could also refer to the number of words the voice actor should read per minute in order to fit within a required timeframe. The pace of a read becomes an issue when the voice actor reads so fast that their articulation is affected.

In many commercial reads, producers and directors try to get the voice actor to read as much information in as short a time as possible – usually within 30 seconds or less. They do this because 30 seconds is the most popular duration for an advertisement. But – depending on his personality and style – a voice actor’s normal pace, the pace at which he sounds most natural, is always best.

Rhythm

In a voice over production, rhythm plays a large role in determining how well the voice actor’s entire delivery of the read sounds. The rhythm is the strong and regular repeated pattern of movement in a voice over read. It allows the voice actor to give a better shape to their lines. When a producer or a director finds a voice actor’s line delivery somewhat haphazard or disjointed, they’ll ask the voice actor to inject a smoother rhythm into the read.

A Range of Vocal Possibilities

A Narrator with a Warm, Caring & Reassuring Tone

Dennis’s smooth, male baritone has a warm vocal quality that makes him ideal for the task when it comes to voiceovers and videos concerned with health and healthcare. He can sound like that kind, calm, and fatherly voice of reassurance and hope in moments of crisis. Whether it be providing a shoulder to lean on for a friend or romantic partner or a gentle virtual pat on the back for encouragement, Dennis will convey your message with a strong and empathetic feeling that’ll help your listeners to relate. 

Friendly, Conversational, and Informative

Delivering helpful information and conveying a message that is easygoing and more casual for lighter Commercial and Corporate reads, Dennis’s bright tones and light baritone voice will automatically cheer up the atmosphere. His easy-going, conversational delivery will give your listeners the impression that they’re chatting with a friendly neighbour or being gently guided by a supportive male friend. Sincere, down-to-earth, and optimistic, Dennis is easily relatable. 

Need a Tone That’s Enthusiastic, Passionate, and Inspirational?

Public service announcements, documentaries, and video games all require voiceover narratives with eloquence, passion, and power. The public service announcements and documentaries sometimes have serious, emotionally-charged messages to convey. They often strive to inspire and uplift their audiences. Video games, meanwhile, demand colour and character fitting for the epic realms and dramatic scenarios. Dennis can embody the stern, noble, and authoritative vocal qualities suitable for these evocative narrations. The storyteller’s register of imagination and gravitas comes to him quite naturally.

Up the Energy with a Whimsical and Fun Voice Over

There’s an upbeat, playful side to business which some people might not be aware of. Many brands and businesses create commercial or promotional videos that sparkle with positive vibes and cheerfulness. For them, an energetic and joyful tone of voice is the perfect match. Dennis brings a fun-loving sense of whimsy to such projects that’ll bring smiles to your listeners’ faces.

Deliver the Information They Need to Hear with Authority, Confidence, and Intelligence

When your audience experiences an eLearning, Explainer video or documentary, they appreciate being guided by an intelligent, polished, and articulate voice, speaking with authority and confidence. But it helps if that same voice is also warm and relatable. Listeners want to be charmed as well as educated. A great explainer, eLearning or documentary voiceover should be dynamic and engaging. Dennis’s voice has these qualities – whether explaining a technical procedure, weaving a compelling historical narrative, or painting pictures of nature’s wonders.

Evoke the Rich, Sophisticated Mood of Luxury

When companies or brands seek to capture through narration their high level of professionalism or craftsmanship, they seek a voice that connotes a charismatic mood of refinement and sophistication. Dennis’s distinguished presence, warm and polished sound, and precise delivery will elevate your brand and image for this sort of project.
