Give your business the right voice


voice over is a narrative technique in which an unseen actor’s lines are heard over visual elements in a movie or commercial. Choosing the right voice actor can transform your advertisement from simple to extraordinary, so choose a voice that will make your audience “like” you the most.

The voice over industry is growing faster and stronger than ever, reaching markets linked with new technologies. Corporate and commercial projects are still the bread and butter jobs for the voice over business, but the increase in voiceover demands for videogames, apps, GPs, text to speech, Internet publishing, would give talent the opportunity to stretch their vocal cords more often and see more opportunities to work on different projects.

We offer multilingual professional VO talents for Business Narration, Cartoons, Jingles, Movie Trailers, Radio & TV commercials, Telephone IVR, Videogames, Dubbing, among other voice services in Spanish, English, Portuguese, Italian, French, German, Mandarin, etc.

Choose a voice to sell your product that establishes an appropriate relation between your idea and your target. Give your business the right voice.

Simultaneous voice over recording


One of the core multimedia services is the precise dubbing of spoken audio content in video productions.  Dubbing is the post-production process, used in a video production, in which vocal recording occurs subsequent to the original recording stage; is widely used, is a more universal method of converting video productions for many markets.

With a wide listing of bilingual voice actors, Elite Music Studios have the experienced in recording foreign voices and replacing them in movies, TV series, marketing  & corporate videos, e-learning that could be useful  for any project.


This was a great session done at our studio for a corporate video.

The Art of Foley


A Foley artist recreates sound effects for film, TV and radio productions using different kinds of shoes and lots of props (plates, glasses, chairs). They work under the direction of a Sound Editor and often use their own extensive collection of small props. They are the unseen actors who reproduce sounds, required when the original track is either unusable or completely replaced as in the case of foreign versions.

Foley generally consists of three elements:

Clothing Moves: The Moves Track is a layer of sound that recreates the clothing rustle of actors as they walk, run and move. It sounds like a smooth but distinct white noise that allows the mixer a base coat of sound. It allows the artist to create a “sound design” for the characters and sets the overall tone of the Foley Track.

Footsteps: A Foley artist is sometimes called a 'Foley Walker' because one of the most important elements we provide is the sound of the footsteps. Feet are very difficult to perform. It takes a lot of practice to get the exact feeling and timing while standing stationary - you can' t walk across the room because the microphone needs to be fixed and besides.
 
Specifics: These are the real fun in Foley. They allow you to paint with sound, recreating the actual movements in an enhanced way.

·       Corn Starch in a leather pouch makes the sound of snow crunch.
·       A pair of gloves sounds like bird wing flaps.
·       A heavy staple gun and or other metal parts make can make a good gun sound.
·       Cellophane can make the sound of crackling fire (the effects editor should do the fire but in a pinch it does work).
·       A heavy rolled and taped up telephone book makes a good 'body punching' surface

Without these crucial background noises, movies, TV series, radio productions, etc. feel unnaturally quiet and uncomfortable.

… If your big productions required a very specific sound effect, at Elite Music Studios, we have one of the greatest Foley artist and sound engineer to give live to your creativity.
