Home Studio Rates
Guideline Pricing in Dollars
After reviewing my home studio and how it works best regarding internet rates, I have put together this card as a guideline. Prices are negotiable dependent on the type of work, company and budget in hand. If you would like more information, please use the CONTACT ME.
Length of the Voice Over: There are two ways to do this:
1 – Time basis: Based on the actual time the recording will be. (Ie: 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 20 minutes, 1 hour etc.)
2 – Word basis (paging): Based on the number of words or pages the script has. One page contains 250 words on average (Arial 12 pt double spacing).
Total Word Count: Is associated with the rate related to the speed I would normally read. This varies from project to project.
Steady 100 words per minute – faster 150 words per minute.
500 – 750 per 5 minutes = Total Minutes of finished audio, or edited, mastered and delivered to your client.
N.B. If you intend to use four-syllable words, you should count these as two words.
