Voice-overs
What is a voice-over buyout?
Short answer
A buyout is the fee for using a voice-over recording. The amount depends on the medium, duration, territory and number of channels.
A buyout is the fee you pay a voice actor for the use of the recording, on top of the recording costs. The amount depends on the medium (radio, TV, online, cinema), the duration, the territory and the number of channels. A national TV commercial running for a year therefore costs more than an internal video. We set the buyout in advance, so you know exactly where you stand. Learn more about voice-overs at TFA.
