Business As we move towards globalisation, there is rarely any process or sector left which works without digitalisation. Online platforms have offered tremendous opportunities to work in areas which allow effective and direct interaction with the audience making a more influential and strong impact. However, with growing competition, it has become rather challenging to hold the interest of the audience for a long period of time. This is especially relevant for e-Learning courses. If the content is not effective enough, the audience will lose its interest and won’t continue. To make your e-Leaning courses successful, you need to have all the tools and strategies effectively utilised. Getting the right voiceover is the key to make your project successful. This can only happen when you have a VO professional on board and doing the job for you. Some of the benefits of hiring a VO talent for your e-Learning course are: • • • • Make Your e-Learning Course Successful They make sure your courses have the right diction and intonation. They deliver the content in a manner that is clearly understandable. They keep the content engaging and audience interested in the course. They add value to your video and overall learning process. If you have valuable learning content but poor narration, the students won’t be able to focus on the material which will affect their knowledge retention. They might be reluctant to proceed with the rest of the course if they are not able to achieve productive results. It is also important the voice used is appropriate for the audience it is aimed at. The voiceover artist needs directions stating what sort of message you want to be delivered for what audience and in what manner. For instance, you cannot have corporate content with a casual-sounding voiceover. It needs to be professional and authoritative. Similarly, for a literature course, you do not want the VO to be in a firmer tone which would be appropriate for a statistics or business course. If you want to know what can make or break your e-Learning course initiative, it has to be the voiceover for the content. No matter how effectual or appealing your visuals are, if the supporting voiceover is not up to the mark, your learning course will not be as productive as you want it to be. The purpose of e-Learning courses is to facilitate the learning process. This process is hugely dependent on how well the audience learns about what the information is. Voiceover is that learning tool which ensures clear dissemination of the intended message in a way which is clearly understood by and connects with the audience.
