Romanian voiceover pricing depends on word count, project category, usage rights and delivery deadline. I calculate every quote with the same formula, then check the result against the minimum order.
How do I calculate a voiceover price?
I multiply the number of words by the rate for the project category, the usage multiplier and the deadline multiplier. If the final result falls below 150 EUR, I apply the minimum order value.
The threshold comes after all multipliers because usage and urgency can change the calculation considerably. A short broadcast script may therefore cost more than an internal narration containing the same number of words.
My Romanian voiceover pricing page outlines the model across the main services. The voiceover duration calculator helps you estimate the likely recording length before requesting a quote.
What does each voiceover category cost?
The category sets the starting rate per word. I use separate rates because performance, pacing and editing requirements vary across production types.
- Commercial: 1.80 EUR per word.
- Dubbing: 2.20 EUR per word.
- IVR: 1.50 EUR per word.
- E-learning: 1.40 EUR per word.
- Social media: 1.00 EUR per word.
- Narration: 0.90 EUR per word.
As a duration reference, one finished minute of an online commercial equates to 279 EUR, while one finished minute of narration with the same usage equates to 117 EUR. These guide values never replace a script-based calculation.
The radio and TV commercial voiceover service explains the performance requirements behind advertising work. For longer educational content, my guide to voiceover for e-learning courses covers pacing, pronunciation and file organization.
The intended purpose determines the correct category. When the same recording will appear across several media channels, list every use so the quote reflects the actual production.
Why does the same script cost more on radio or TV?
The price changes because usage rights reflect where the audience will hear the recording and how widely the campaign will run. A TV placement carries a different scope from an internal corporate presentation.
Online usage and the standard deadline both keep the base value, with a multiplier of 1.0. I apply 0.8 to internal use, 1.5 to radio, 2.5 to TV and 3.0 to international usage.
Each multiplier applies to the amount calculated from category and word count. Your request should also identify the usage period, territory and channels, even when the script and recording length remain unchanged.
If your script and usage details are ready, enter them in the Romanian voiceover quote generator for an immediate estimate.
How does the delivery deadline affect the price?
The selected deadline changes the result through its multiplier. Urgent delivery uses 1.3, express delivery uses 1.75 and a flexible schedule uses 0.9.
Standard delivery takes between 24 and 48 hours. When a project needs pronunciation research, segmentation of long material or a directed session, I confirm the schedule after reviewing the script.
I also work at weekends, subject to the requested time window. Share the exact date and time when you need the audio files so I can choose the correct deadline option without guessing.
What does the price include and exclude?
The price covers voice production from pronunciation preparation through final file delivery. Services or changes that extend beyond the script and usage described in the quote remain separate.
- I prepare pronunciations for names, technical terms and words with several possible readings.
- I record the script according to the agreed direction, pace and performance style.
- I edit the material and remove reading errors or unwanted noise.
- I complete one round of minor adjustments to pacing, emphasis or delivery.
- I deliver audio files in the requested formats and structure.
Script proofreading, translation and a complete rewrite sit outside this production scope. If the wording changes after recording or new distribution channels enter the project, I review the workload and usage rights again.
For a directed session on Source Connect, Zoom, Google Meet or ISDN, include the preferred platform and participant availability. That information lets me reserve a suitable slot and prepare the material before the connection begins.
How do you request an accurate quote?
Send the final script, distribution channels, usage period and delivery deadline. Those details allow me to calculate the category, rights and production schedule without relying on assumptions.
Add the required file format, naming structure and any available pronunciation guide. Mention whether the project needs performance variations, picture synchronization or attendance at a live directed session.
The quote will distinguish the core voice production from any additional requirements in your brief. Once I receive the complete information, I respond within two hours.
Describe your project through the Romanian voiceover quote request form, and I will reply with a calculation tailored to the script and intended usage.
