Australian voices for Hobart briefs

Australian voices who record Hobart briefs from broadcast-quality home studios around the country. Press play. Every read is warmer than a July morning on the waterfront.

The agency question

Why Hobart's leaving the agency behind

Hobart has always had to be resourceful, being a Bass Strait away from the mainland agencies. The old way meant calling Melbourne, waiting for a shortlist, booking a studio that wanted a flight, and paying for all of it. A city that turned a sandstone waterfront into the best Saturday in the country worked out that a voice can arrive faster than a container ship.

Agencies still have their place. It's just not on the other side of Bass Strait.

The agency way

  • A mainland agency's roster, and a mainland agency's timetable
  • Showreels of other people's scripts
  • A studio to book, and a flight to get to it
  • Office hours in another state

The online way

  • Hand-picked Australian voice over artists reading your actual script, free
  • Auditions usually within the hour, day or night
  • Broadcast-quality home studios, finished files within a day
  • One clear rate card, and re-records are free if a read misses your notes

The briefs

What Hobart records.

Hobart briefs have a particular flavour. Tourism for the mountain, the peninsula and the east coast, food and drink brands with a story to tell, arts and festival announcements in winter and summer, Antarctic science explainers, health and university eLearning, and government messages for a state that likes to hear its own accent. The read wants warmth and honesty, and it can smell a hard sell from Launceston.

  • Tourism and regional campaigns
  • Food, wine and whisky brands
  • Arts and festival announcements
  • Science and research explainers
  • Health and university eLearning
  • Government and council messages
  • TV and radio commercials
  • On-hold and IVR

Questions

Hobart, asked and answered.

Do I need a studio in Hobart?

No. Every voice over artist records from a broadcast-quality home studio and sends finished files online. Nothing to book in Hobart, and nothing to fly to on the mainland.

How fast do auditions arrive?

Usually within the hour of posting, from Australian voice over artists we've reviewed one by one, reading your actual script. Finished recordings usually land within 24 hours of booking.

Can I ask for a particular Australian accent?

Yes, put it in the brief. Australian voice over artists cover the range from broad to cultivated, and a good general Australian read sits comfortably on a Hobart brief.

Is this a voice over agency in Hobart?

It's an online casting site, not an agency: no booker, no roster limit, no mainland timetable. Hand-picked Australian voice over artists audition your script for free and you book the one you like.

What does a Hobart voice over cost?

The rate card is public, quoted in Australian dollars, and set by the length and use of the script. You'll see the price before you post, and it's the same in Hobart as in Sydney.
