Afrikaans Speaking Voice Over Artists

Afrikaans is a West Germanic language predominantly spoken in South Africa and Namibia. It originated from the Dutch vernacular of South Holland, brought by Dutch settlers in the 17th century, and has since evolved with influences from African languages and English.

Afrikaans uses the Latin alphabet with some additional diacritical marks. The language has simplified many aspects of the Dutch grammatical system. For example, it doesn't conjugate verbs based on the subject of the sentence, and it doesn't use grammatical gender for nouns, which is common in many European languages. The Afrikaans vocabulary has also incorporated words from other languages, including Malay, Portuguese, Bantu languages, and Khoisan languages.

Afrikaans is the third most spoken language in South Africa, and is taught in schools and used in government and media.

How to obtain your voiceover recording

Submit your brief We suggest voices & costs Confirm our booking form We make the recording Delivery

Step 1: We're here to help! Whether you have specific voices in mind, or would like us to suggest options, a good starting point is to submit an enquiry using our online form. One of our team, likely Matt, Jack or Gary will pick up your enquiry and get back to you.
Our form can be found at www.voiceovers.co.uk/submit-a-brief.

Step 2: We'll provide some suggested voices with associated costs, based on your brief you submitted in Step 1.

Step 3: Once you've decided on a voice we'll send over a booking form/quote to confirm. Licensing is an important part of the voiceover world because you are effectively using a performance - and our booking form/quote will ensure you're covered and have obtained the correct licenses, if needed.

Step 4: We can make the recording on your behalf. We'll check the script for any unusual pronunciations/acronyms and get an idea of the style you want the read, so the recording session goes smoothly. Alternatively if you want to be more 'hands on' we can often set up a directed session where we patch you into the recording session (typically using phone/Skype/Facetime audio). You can then listen in, comment and guide the recording as it is made.

Step 5: Prior to delivery one of our producers will check through the recording, tidying it up and removing any errors. We can also perform any additional editing you've requested, such as splitting into separate files, or encoding into a specific audio form (for example uLaw, aLaw, 8bit wav). We will then share a download link allowing you to access the recording. In the unlikely event you spot any errors we will rectify these for no additional cost.
