Once you have identified a potential voiceover artist that you would like to work with, here are some steps to follow to making the hiring process go as smoothly as possible.1.� If your script is already written email the full script for a quotation.2. If the script is still a work in progress email an approximation of the final length in either time or number of words. A word count is preferred over a page count as font size and style, margins and layout can all influence how many words are on a page.� Don't forget to mention that the script is to be used as a elearning narration.�3. If you are choosing between 2 or three voiceover artists, why don't you ask each to record a short secion from the script to help with the casting decision.� Most voiceover artists are more than happy to record this free of charge and understand that it may involve several people to get a final casting decision.4. Your voiceover artist should then be able to provide you with a quote and estimated turnaround time for the recording.5. If you are working to a tight schedule or tight budget do let your voiceover artist know the constraints you are working to.� Most voiceover artists will do their best to accommodate your requirements.6. With regards to the quote, confirm whether the quote includes editing into the individual screen/slides.� Also confirm whether the quote is for a full-buyout, 1 year license or 2 year license.�7. Confirm the audio format you require and make sure the voiceover artist can deliver in the specified format.� Also check which delivery method they will get the audio files to you.� Methods can vary from uploading to your FTP server, CD overnight, or via an online file transfer system such as Yousendit.com.8. Confirm the payment options with your voiceover artist.� Some voiceover artists request a 50% deposit before recording can begin.� Many voiceover artists are happy to receive payment via paypal, cheque or bank transfer.�
