Audio guide voice over
Audio guides walk visitors through a museum, a city or a site, often on a phone or a handset. The voice must sound like a good host: informed, relaxed and easy to follow on the move.
Before you start
- The route and the order of the stops.
- The target length for each stop.
- The languages for visitors.
What you receive
One file per stop, in every language, timed for the route.
A common mistake
Writing stops as lectures, when visitors listen while looking at something else.

Review
A person checks the result against the brief, and a native speaker reviews each language, before delivery.
Questions
How long should each stop be?
Short enough that visitors can keep looking at the object while they listen. Test a stop on site before recording the whole guide.
