Recorded Voiceovers

 

How can a recorded voiceover help your users

 

Providing an option for your site visitors to have some of the content read aloud can sometimes help them digest the presented material more easily and can add a more personal, human element to the users experience of the site.

 

 

Clear and easy to understand

 

Human voiceovers create a fun opportunity to communicate with your visitors. Sentences are clearly punctuated and paced in a way that is clear and easy to understand for visitors of your site. You can have one voiceover for the whole page, or a number of smaller voiceovers which are paragraph specific and enable the user to listen to paragraphs of text individually.

 

We have created an example on this page to demonstrate how paragraph specific voiceovers will operate. Not all of this page is included in the voiceover as it is solely intended for demonstration purposes.

Voices

 

We can provide the voiceovers for your site or you can provide recordings to us and we will add them to your site. They will be availible through a play button on the relevant page.

 

We can accept audio in most formats and will convert it if neccessary but will speak with you in advance about ways to improve and enhance your audio quality.

 

 

Limitations of human recorded voiceovers

 

Recorded human voices can only be used for content that is static. If the text was ever changed, the voice overs would have to be re-recorded and the site updated.

 

If you will be regularly updating page content , we recommend BrowseAloud

 

This is a text to speech application that will read the current content of any website that is Browsaloud enabled..
