Voice Over

What I do best: speaking authentic French and speaking English and German with an authentic French accent.

Une voix off française directement à portée de la main sur le marché nord-américain: narrations, documentaires, livres audio, spots publicitaires, doublage de vidéos, attentes téléphoniques

Added value:
As a French translator, I can offer you the added value of a talent able to convey your message in the language that speaks to your audience. Whatever your message is, make sure that the messenger who will bring it across is a native. There are, for instance, a few nuances between continental and North American French than can cost you a fortune. Be also aware that an English text translated into French will tend to become longer. You need somebody familiar with the voiceover process to contain this within acceptable limits and keep the rhythm of the original.

Client List

English to French Translation

Why should you look for a translator specialized in voiceovers?
If you have for instance a narration that goes along with a video, you will have some tight spots to fit the message in the target language. Because the original 10 seconds in English describing a step in the work process have become 15 seconds in French, and the next video clip already shows the next step. A translator familiar with the voiceover process will work beforehand to contain this within acceptable limits and keep the natural rhythm of the original script by shortening the translation so that it fits naturally with the images.
There will be also some spots where a character will be speaking on-camera. It will be necessary to carefully synchronize the image and the audio. If you do not plan this ahead in your translation, the voiceover talent will have to improvise in the recording booth, a solution that is not always the best.
