Introduction
It’s time to get your voice heard. Voice-over work is a fun, creative way to break into the audio and video industries. You get to express yourself and entertain others at the same time! It may seem daunting at first, but here are some tips on how to get started:
Animation & 3D
Animation is a form of visual art that involves the use of moving illustrations or models. These are often created with the intention of being photographed or animated, and have been used in films, TV shows and commercials, as well as video games. Animation can also be used in music videos and social media posts to create interesting and entertaining content to engage viewers.
Commercials
Commercials are a great way to get your message across in an entertaining and engaging way. They’re short ads that promote a product or service, and they can be for movies, TV shows, or other entertainment mediums. They’re also used to sell products and services. Commercials can be produced in many different styles — from funny animated shorts to live-action footage with voiceover narration — depending on what’s best for your brand and audience.
Jingles
Jingles are short, catchy phrases or songs that are used to promote a product or service. They're often used in advertising—think of the McDonald's jingle "You deserve a break today" or Apple's "Think Different." Jingles can be very simple, like the classic Coca-Cola slogan: "Coke Is It!" Or they can be more complex, like Pepsi's "Pepsi Generation." And sometimes there is no music at all: An example would be Wendy's restaurants' slogan: "Where's the beef?"
There are many different types of jingles; some have words and music, while others do not use any kind of musical instrument at all. Jingles may also be sung or spoken—and they can even be silent!
Postproduction
Postproduction is the final stage of production in which raw footage is edited into a finished product. It’s also seen as the “finishing process” of filmmaking, since you are essentially taking your raw material and turning it into something that looks and sounds good enough to be shown to others. In postproduction, you edit together all your scenes and shots into an assembly or rough cut; add sound effects; and add music if necessary. Then you can start adding color correction (or “grading”) to get rid of any unwanted color casts from lighting issues or from shooting in different locations with different cameras at different times—or simply to make things look better. Then comes picture editing: cutting together all the scenes into a linear order for the audience, adding titles and credits where appropriate, creating transitions between scenes so it doesn't look jarring when one scene cuts abruptly into another...and so on!
Because we record sound separately from video during production (see "Sound" section), audio work can be done much later than video work; but because both are generally completed concurrently during editing, we'll talk about them together here. In addition to adding music in postproduction (yes! You can even do this!), sound designers mix down all those recordings made during production—lots of dialogue across multiple characters speaking at once—into something intelligible without being too loud or too soft compared with other sounds occurring at any given moment while watching your movie unfold on screen (think explosions).
Sound effects
Sound effects are used to help the audience suspend disbelief and add realism. If you’re writing a scene where someone is being chased through an abandoned warehouse by an axe-wielding maniac, it’s probably not going to be realistic if the character isn’t able to hear the pounding of their own footsteps on the concrete floor. But if they can hear their pursuer’s footsteps too? That would be pretty cool.
Sound effects are usually added in post-production during editing (a process called ADR or "additional dialogue recording"). However, sound effects can also be added during filming: for example, if a scene takes place underwater and there needs to be some kind of background noise—like bubbles or splashing water—that's part of what's being filmed so that it doesn't look like people who live underwater would go around with mute mouths all day long
Video spokesperson
What is a video spokesperson?
A video spokesperson is someone who appears in videos or on social media platforms to represent your brand, business or organization. A video spokesperson can be the face of your company and help you build trust with customers by showing them that you have actual people working for you and not just an automated bot online. Video spokespeople are also great because they're very flexible—you can use them in short videos, long ones and even live streams! Plus they're much easier than hiring someone out of Hollywood!
How do I find work as a video spokesperson?
We recommend looking at KennFlik first because it's one of the most popular sites for freelancers offering services like this one. There are plenty of gigs available here so don't worry about missing out on any potential gigs just because there aren't any listed yet (or even if there's nothing currently posted about what kind). In fact there are over 5000 jobs available right now! Just search for what kind of job interests
Voice-over
Voice-over is the process of recording spoken words and sounds, which are then mixed into a piece of media. It's used in advertisements, TV shows and films, video games, audio books, educational videos—basically anywhere you might hear someone speaking.
Voice-over can be recorded from scratch or inserted into existing footage by editing together two separate clips or by taking a single clip and cutting out portions to create a voice-over effect.
KennFlik is a good place to find voice-over work.
Now, I know what you're thinking: "But Dan! What about Fiverr?" Fiverr is a great place to find voice-over work. It's also a good place to find animation work, video editing work and other types of gigs that pay specifically in cents per hour (which is probably why they call it "Fiverr"). But if you want to get into a high-paying gig where you can earn more than the cost of an iced coffee at Starbucks ... well, then KennFlik might be right up your alley.
DESCRIPTION
The description of a job says what the work is, who does it and how much money you make.
There are two types of description:
- Descriptions written by experts (the employer) that explain why you need this particular job. These are called job ads. Job ads often describe jobs using words like “dynamic” or “fast-paced”, which mean different things to different people but can be useful when searching for jobs in your area.
- Descriptions written by people who work in the job field – these are called profiles and include details about what their day-to-day life looks like, as well as salary ranges and other information about pay rates and benefits packages available at various companies or organizations where they work/have worked before now/would like someday soon maybe if they find another place first so they won't lose track of all those emails again..."
ANIMATOR
To answer the question of what an animator does, it's important to know that there are two types: 2D and 3D. The first is defined by being made up of flat images, like cartoons or hand-drawn animation; the second involves three-dimensional objects that can be manipulated by computer software.
It's one thing for artists to create characters and environments in a 2D world (like a cartoon), but how do they bring them to life? That's where the animator comes in! They're responsible for making sure everything moves fluidly within their scenes—which means taking into account realistic physics as well as aesthetic appeal. You might think this would make them more like programmers than artists—but that's not quite true either! Animators have to work closely with both teams so they can understand how each element fits together into one cohesive picture.
As you can imagine, creating animations takes quite a bit of skill—not only because they require technical knowledge but also because they involve creative thinking at every step along the way. It takes artistic talent combined with technical ability just like any other job (and sometimes even more). But don't worry: there are plenty of ways out there where you too could become an animator someday!
Video & Audio Animation & 3D
If you're looking to do something new, you may be interested in a career as a Motion Graphics Designer. They're the people who make videos for music videos and commercials that are so cool and pretty.
The Intro Videos are more like mini-movies; they give us a little background information on what this place is all about, and why we should care about it (or not). Explainer Videos take that idea one step further by showing us what the concept looks like in action. These tend to be short and sweet—a few minutes at most! You can also get into Stop-Motion Animation if you're interested in making stop-motion movies with action figures or other toys instead of computers.
Video Animators make short films using computer animation software like After Effects or Final Cut Pro X (both available on Mac computers). Social Media Video Creators use these same tools to create videos targeted at social media platforms such as Instagram Stories or Facebook Live—and they may also edit other people's work when needed! A YouTube Video Editor is someone who works specifically with YouTube content creators--they help them come up with ideas for their next video project according to how well their last ones did when it comes down to performance metrics such as views or subscriptions."
1. Motion Graphics Designer
Motion graphics designers are responsible for creating graphics and animations for a project. Motion graphics are used in video, film, and television productions.
A motion graphic designer is often tasked with creating a short animation that explains something or helps to drive home a point. This could be anything from an animated logo to an explainer video that highlights the top features of a product or service. Motion graphics can also help direct viewers through longer videos by providing visual cues that may otherwise be absent if the viewer were just watching an audio-only track alone.
2. Intro Videos
- Intro videos are short, usually 15-30 seconds long. They are used to introduce the viewer to your product or service.
- You can use an intro video for your landing page, on your homepage, or even within an email campaign.
- A great way to get started with this type of video is by using a tool like Powtoon or Animaker that allows you to create animated videos that incorporate text and graphics right into them (you could even add in a background song if you want).
3. Explainer Videos
Explainer videos are short, concise videos that explain a concept in a simple way. They're usually between 1-2 minutes long and great for explaining products or services to customers. Because they're so short, you should be sure that your message is clear and easy to understand.
Explainer videos are meant to help viewers quickly grasp the concept behind your product or service—they're not there to sell them on buying it right now! Instead, they should pique the viewer's interest enough that they want more information and will visit your website where they can read more about what you do (and hopefully purchase something).
4. Stop-Motion Videos
Stop-motion animation is a technique that involves physically manipulating an object so that it appears to move on its own. It's an extremely time-consuming process, but it allows you to create a sense of life and personality in your video—which makes it the perfect choice for kid-oriented content.
Stop-motion videos are usually made with toys or clay figures (like those in Toy Story). You can also use stop-motion techniques to create effects like morphing, which requires moving one or more objects from one pose to another in small increments over a period of time.
5. Video Animator
- Video Animator
Video animators have the skills, experience and creative vision to bring your story to life. They can also add sound effects and music to make your video more engaging for your audience.
6. Social Media Video Creator
Social media video is a type of video that can be shared on social media platforms, like Facebook and Twitter.
A good social media video tells a story, makes your audience laugh, and helps you sell your product or service.
Here are some tips for creating an effective and engaging video:
- Make sure the sound is clear. Good audio quality is essential to the success of a video!
- Use eye-catching visuals in order to grab the viewer's attention right away (this might involve using large text overlays at the beginning). If there's one thing we've learned from documentaries about penguins over time, it's that people seem to enjoy watching footage where animals are involved in some way or another (it doesn't hurt if it involves someone getting eaten alive either).
- Keep things short! People have short attention spans nowadays due to all these new technologies available out there these days which means they don't have much time left over after work/school/etc before falling asleep at night so make sure yours isn't too long either; otherwise nobody will watch it since they'll fall asleep halfway through anyway!
