Rates above are for straight voice overs only. Due to time limitations in my schedule, it's hard to produce completed spots with music and sound effects. Plan on spending a bit more for production work, lower pricing if you provide cleared production music that you have purchased (jingle, 'needle drop' music from a production library you are licensed to use).

Website distribution of your finished spot is available. I will need all details before I can quote you a fee. Additional charges will be applied for work added to the project after the agreed to quote has been made.

At this time, normal turnaround for small voiceover projects is same day to one to two days, depending on the time I get the copy and workload. If you give me a heads up, I will be looking for it. Slower turnaround for larger projects and during the busy season (up to a week or more). I can quote lower rates if you give me more time to get a large voice over project completed. Large projects can also be done in sections to facilitate work on your end.

Most scripts are recorded in the afternoon when I get home from the station. My available time is limited, though. Due to my early work hours at the station, I can not work into the evening Eastern time.

Send me a script for a quote or save time like most of my long time clients by just telling me what you have in your budget. Why waste time haggling!

**No charges for single file web downloads of small files or for shipping a single CD for a job over $200 (except for International shipping).

My *solo* home studio time is also free! Clients arrange and pay for outside studio time/equipment/ISDN service and long distance phone patch calls.

I will work to help you fit your budget and see that you get quality Voice Overs.
