A clear scope before recording
We specify the performance, studio recording, usage rights and schedule in one quote. Once it’s approved, we arrange the recording.
French voice over rates
Before the first take,
let’s set the scene
I’m Estelle Hubert, a native French voice over artist. Tell me what your production needs: the performance, the usage, the recording session and the files. We agree the scope, usage rights and schedule in a quote before recording.

What shapes your quote
The script is only
part of the story
A few lines for a campaign and a long-form narration involve different work and usage. Your quote brings those details together.
The project sets the direction
A commercial, a corporate film, a documentary or an e-learning course each calls for a different approach. Send the script or word count, the brand, the audience, any specialist terminology and the versions you need.

Where your voice over will be heard
Where will the recording be heard, in which territories and for how long? Tell me the media and whether the use is internal, public or part of an advertising campaign. The agreed usage rights are specified in the quote.

Your place in the recording
Leave the recording to me from your brief, or join a live-directed session. We agree the recording setup, who is involved and the time needed for your project. E-learning is recorded from your brief, without a live-directed session.

The work continues beyond the take
Raw takes for your engineer or prepared files for your edit? Include file splitting, naming, timing to picture, versions, delivery batches and your deadline so we can agree the work and schedule.

Your place in the session
On your brief,
or together live
Before we record, we discuss the script, the intended performance and the project requirements. We agree on the schedule and the files you need.
Choose your place
in the session.
Leave the recording to me
Send me your script and brief. I record following the direction we’ve agreed. If you’re still finding the tone, I draw on over 20 years of experience to suggest approaches. You then receive the takes for review.
Performance references, pronunciation notes, the intended pace and the files you need.
Direct the session
Join the recording remotely. Together, we adjust the pace, nuances and performance, take by take.
For audio: Source-Connect, SessionLink Pro or Cleanfeed. For conversation: Google Meet, Zoom or Teams. We agree the connection, who attends, the session timing and how the takes will be delivered.
For e-learning, I record from your brief in self-directed sessions.

Files for your production
Raw takes for your postproduction, or cleaned, split and named files in the agreed format. Timing to picture and delivery in several batches are planned in the quote.
An actor who stays involved
Your direction guides the performance. When you’re still exploring, I suggest approaches. You receive the takes, share your feedback and we refine the performance on the agreed script.

Before we record
A clear way
forward
What if the script changes?
We refine the performance on the agreed script. If the script changes substantially, I quote the new version.
What if the planned usage changes?
The quote sets out the agreed media, territories and usage term. Tell me about any new use so we can confirm the rights needed for that project.
Tell me about your project
Your script is a
good place to start
Send your script or word count, the brand and audience, the planned usage, your preferred recording setup, the files you need and your deadline. If some details are still open, tell me what you have and we’ll clarify them together.
