Calling Cypriot Greek voice talent

We're expanding our Cypriot Greek roster

Cypriot Greek is a language we're actively growing. If you're a Cypriot Greek voice actor, we'd love to hear your demos and put you forward for paid work.

About the variety

Formal content can use standard Greek. Conversational content cannot.

Cyprus runs on two things at once. Standard Modern Greek is the language of school, administration, news bulletins and everything written. Cypriot Greek is what people actually speak to each other, and it differs from the standard enough in sound and vocabulary to be identified instantly.

A Cypriot follows standard Greek with no friction at all — it is their formal language, not a foreign one. What they do not do is hold a conversation in it. That gives you a rule you can apply without thinking about it much:

For corporate video, training, institutional content and IVR, standard Greek works and is what people expect. You do not need a Cypriot voice actor, and our Greek service with its wider roster is usually the better answer. We would rather tell you that than sell you something narrower.

For advertising, social, testimonials and anything meant to sound like one person talking to another, it does not. An Athens voice is placed immediately, and the piece reads as made elsewhere and shipped in. That is exactly the impression a local campaign is paying to avoid.

The commercial case for treating Cyprus separately is real, too: it is an EU member state with its own sectors generating content — financial and professional services, shipping and maritime, tourism — that are not covered by default from Athens. Typical work is advertising and brand content, tourism and destination material, community and public-information content, and corporate work for Cyprus-based organisations.

Ask us the awkward questions while they are still free to ask. We will go through it without charging and flag whatever will not survive being spoken aloud, then quote it in full detail. You also get a free casting: shortlisted Cypriot Greek voices reading your own copy, with no obligation to book any of them. Send us your Cypriot Greek script, or ask a question first — we would rather answer it than sell you something.

Getting Cypriot Greek right

Worth settling before the session

Half the time the honest answer is that you do not need this page.

Formal content: standard Greek is fine

Corporate, training and institutional material is expected in the standard, and Cypriots consume it without friction. Use our wider Greek roster and save the difference.

Conversational content: it is not

Advertising, social and testimonial work needs to sound like a person from the place. An Athens read is identified within a sentence and lands as imported.

The written side stays standard

Even when the voice is Cypriot, subtitles and on-screen text normally stay in standard Greek, because that is the written norm in Cyprus. Do not transcribe the dialect unless the effect is deliberate.

Cyprus is its own market

An EU member state with financial services, shipping and tourism sectors that commission their own content. Being served from Athens by default is a gap worth closing.

Most common questions

Do we actually need a Cypriot voice, or will standard Greek do?

It depends on the content, and often standard Greek does. Cypriots use standard Modern Greek for school, administration and news, so corporate video, training and institutional material in the standard is expected and lands fine — our Greek voice over roster is wider and usually the better fit for that. Where you do need Cypriot is advertising, social, testimonials and anything meant to sound like a person from the place.

Will a Greek audience notice a Cypriot voice, or the other way round?

Both, immediately. Cypriot Greek differs from the standard in sound and vocabulary enough to be identified within a sentence, in either direction. That is why the decision is worth making deliberately: for a pan-Greek campaign the standard travels, and for a Cyprus-only campaign it announces itself as imported.

Should the subtitles be in Cypriot Greek too?

Normally no. Standard Greek is the written norm in Cyprus, so subtitles and on-screen text stay standard even when the audio is dialect. Writing out the dialect is a deliberate stylistic choice — it can work for comedy or strongly local branding, but it is not the default and we would flag it before doing it.

Do you have male Cypriot voices?

Not at the moment — our current Cypriot roster is entirely female, and we would rather say so up front than at shortlist stage. If your project needs a male read, tell us when you brief and we will go to our wider network and come back to you honestly about what we can arrange.

Can you translate our script for the Cyprus market?

Yes, with native Greek linguists, and we will pitch the register for Cyprus rather than defaulting to Athens. Even where the written text stays standard, word choice and reference points can be adjusted so the piece does not read as produced for a different market.

Do you have Cypriot voices based in London?

Yes, two of our three. You can filter the library above for London-based talent, which makes attended sessions in our Central London studios straightforward if you want to direct in the room.

What do you use Cypriot Greek voice over for?

Advertising and brand content aimed at Cyprus, tourism and destination material, community and public-information content, and corporate work for Cyprus-based organisations in financial services, shipping and professional services.

How quickly can we have the files?

Most short Cypriot Greek projects are delivered within 24 to 48 hours; longer or multi-voice work is scheduled with your dedicated project manager, who confirms a firm date up front.

What file formats and audio specs do you deliver in?

Whatever your delivery paperwork says: WAV or MP3, separate stems where needed, at the stated sample rate, bit depth and loudness target.

What do you need from us to quote Cypriot Greek voice over?

Less than people expect: the script, or the draft of it, its total running time or word count, where the recording will be used, and the date you need it by. If the script is not signed off yet, send the draft anyway — we would rather quote on what exists than wait for a version that eats your deadline. A named project manager comes back with an itemised quote, normally within four working hours.

How quickly will we hear back, and who will we be dealing with?

More than half of enquiries get a reply within thirty minutes during office hours (Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm UK time), and the itemised quote normally follows within four working hours. After that you have one dedicated project manager who owns the job from brief to final file — not a ticket queue, and not a different name on every email. If it is easier, call +44 207 095 5730 and ask for them by name.

We are still pitching and the budget is not signed off. Can we still get a Cypriot Greek quote?

Yes, and it is one of the commonest reasons people get in touch. Tell us it is for a pitch and you get a figure you can put in front of your own client, itemised so it stands up to being picked apart, with no obligation and no follow-up sales calls if the pitch goes elsewhere. If it lands, the quote still holds and we already know the project.

That hourly rate is the Basic Studio Fee: the recording session itself, with the voice actor, the casting, the direction, the studio and the engineer included. Any buyout — the usage fee — is added on top and quoted separately: it depends on the markets the recording runs in, the media it runs on and how long you licence it for.
