Vietnamese Voiceover

Yes, as a standing part of the roster. Vietnamese is spoken in Vietnam and large communities in the US, Australia and France, and the artists are native speakers who work in the language daily rather than bilinguals reading phonetically. You hear two or three of them against your own script before you book anything.

By listening. Send the script and a short brief - audience, tone, pace, region - and auditions from shortlisted Vietnamese artists come back reading your actual words. Nothing is booked until you have chosen, and the same artist stays available for later episodes, prompts or campaign updates.

Upload the material, approve the written quote and deadline, and work begins - no deposit, no account to set up. Send the script and say where the audio will run, because usage shapes both the casting and the terms. Send the Vietnamese script with a note on tone, pace and audience, because that is what the casting shortlist is built from. Anything ambiguous is queried with you before work starts.

Advertising, narration, e-learning, IVR and character work, in roughly that order. A Vietnamese corporate read and a Vietnamese character read are different jobs with different artists, which is why the brief is settled before casting. Most clients here are casting a voice for something that will run for months, not for a single upload.

You can supply one, or a professional translator can produce it first. Translation is $0.10 per word, and a script is adapted to time rather than translated literally, because a line that fits the picture in English rarely fits in Vietnamese at the same length. Where a translated script has to be certified before recording, that is priced per page.

Voice-over is quoted per job, from the script you send. A voice-over quote has two parts, the recording and the usage, and both are itemised before you book. Vietnamese is requested often enough that several artists can be auditioned against your script rather than one offered. Quotes are calculated from how long the script runs, the language, and where and for how long the audio will be used, so two clients sending comparable material pay the same, and nothing begins until you approve the written total.

Rush delivery within 2 to 24 hours is available, and the delivery time is confirmed in writing before you pay. Casting happens before recording, so the date you are given includes the audition round and does not assume the first voice fits. A Vietnamese booking covers casting, recording and editing, and the date you are given accounts for all three. If a deadline cannot be met you are told at quoting stage, not on the day.

Work is done by human voice artists and listened back against the script before it is sent, which is how the 99+% accuracy standard is met. Names, numbers and technical terms are checked for pronunciation before the session, not fixed afterwards. Names, places and loanwords in a Vietnamese script are checked for pronunciation with the artist before the session starts. One person working alone would not catch a mispronounced name or a read that will not fit the edit.

Yes. Everyone who touches your material signs an NDA, transfer is encrypted, and access is limited to the people assigned to the job, usually one voice artist and one reviewer. Vietnamese scripts often belong to campaigns that have not launched, so they go no further than the artist and the engineer. Scripts for unreleased campaigns arrive constantly, so they go to the cast artist and the engineer and nobody else. Your own agreement can be signed before the first file is sent.

Audio arrives as WAV or MP3 at the sample rate you specify, edited and ready to drop in. Files can be split by section or supplied as one continuous take, and the raw unedited audio is available too. Audio is delivered at the sample rate and file type your project runs on, edited clean and ready to drop in. The Vietnamese audio is delivered in your project specification, with split files per section where an editor needs them.
