Voice over in Canada
Let's face it- it's quite challenging to come across a Canadian voice over service that can convey the authentic experience with your content. There's no question that most voice over companies put a lot of effort to achieve it. They review customer materials, assign appropriate translators, proofread translated scripts, organize castings and select the most suitable voice actors to match the original voices. Recording and post-production take place in an acoustically treated, secure studio environment and the file delivery of the translated version is usually easy and convenient.
But there's a catch.
Your original content is produced in another country and within a very different cultural context. That's why simply translating it into English is not nearly enough to convey its creative intent. In result, a Canadian, or any other language version, becomes a distant reflection of the original. And shows that are a huge success on one market end up being mediocre on others after voicing.
To help you craft an authentic experience with your content in Canada and achieve a native feel, we apply a culture-first approach on localization. We produce a voice over that considers all local norms and traditions to recreate a culturally relevant, immersive and engaging viewer experience. Thanks to our Canadian voice over services you connect to your local market on a cultural level. Translated lines sound as natural as in the original dialogues while capturing all language nuances. We breathe life into your stories and bring your characters closer to the hearts of local viewers.
Here's the deal- it takes just 3 easy steps with us to make the perfect voice over in Canadian English:

Canadian English voice over services
Why you need Canadian voice over services is what determines our approach on your VO project. We align with your business goals to define success before planning and executing on production. Voice over (voiceover, voice-over) is mostly used by Entertainment, Education, Media, Technology, Film and Video game industries for making their videos accessible to a local audience. Voice over, also referred to as "UN style", is a production technique where a voice that is not a part of the narrative is added to the media file. We mean voice over when we hear the voice of someone we can't see on the video. The script is recorded by a voice artist off-screen, generally in a narrative, storytelling tone. Voice over is the preferred approach on localization for short-form audio-visual content of narrative or documentary nature where translation of the script is the main objective.

Professional Canadian English voice actors
All our voice actors and actresses are based in Canada. We are well aware that many Canadian nationals live abroad and some of them have a professional voice acting background or even a home-based voice over recording studio. Sure, a mother tongue is developed phonetically and grammatically in early childhood. However, when living in a foreign country, especially for a long time, there is a risk of developing an accent which we are not willing to take when working on your Canadian voice over project. Thus all our Canadian voice over actors reside in Canada.

Our native Canadian voice artists paint beautiful pictures in words. They capture the nuances of the Canadian accent to enrich the images through sound and create authentic personalities.
