When was the last time a video gave you goosebumps?
When last did your skin literally tingle with inspiration?

Chances are it was caused by the right combination of images, sound, and carefully scripted, beautifully narrated voiceover.

Here are five reasons we love scripted voiceover videos.

1.

Clarity of message

Having a pre-approved script allows you to distill and refine exactly what you want your message to be. That’s a lot harder to do in interviews or on-camera explanations.

2.

Less money in production than interview-based videos

It’s a battle for efficiency and cost-effectiveness between one writer and a crew consisting of director, videographer, sound crew, all their gear and an often-nervous interviewee. There’s a clear winner.

3.

Less time in post production

Interviews are often filled with ums and ahs, nervous giggles, mispronounced words, or sentences that don’t quite make sense even though you thought they did at the time. Cutting something imperfect into something that feels well-crafted takes time.

4.

Voiceovers connect the brand on an emotional level

Tone of voice, timing of lines and having the chance to carefully choose your message all combine to create an emotional connection with your audience.

5.

They are inspiring

The right voice, images and soundtrack put together can produce that illusive spine-tingling we were talking about earlier. We’ll call it the Morgan Freeman effect.
