Haitian Creole voice over services

For Haiti, yes, and this is the point most worth getting right. Kreyòl is spoken by virtually the whole population while French is fluently held by a much smaller group, so a French recording aimed at Haiti misses most of the audience rather than reaching it imperfectly. If the content is public-health, emergency or community material that people need to act on, Kreyòl is not the optional extra — it is the version that works.

No. Kreyòl draws much of its vocabulary from French but its grammar is its own, and the two are not mutually intelligible — a French speaker does not understand Kreyòl without learning it. We cast native Kreyòl speakers and keep separate rosters for the two languages.

The official orthography established in 1979, which is phonemic — one letter, one sound — and consistent. Older French-influenced spellings still circulate in some material, so it is worth specifying rather than assuming. We deliver in the standard spelling as default.

We can do either, and it is worth saying which in the brief. There are large Kreyòl-speaking communities in Miami, New York and parts of Canada, and content aimed at them often sits at a slightly different register from material for Haiti itself. Tell us the audience and we cast and direct accordingly.

Yes, with native Kreyòl linguists writing from your source rather than adapting a French version. Carrying copy across from French tends to produce something over-formal that reads as translated, which is the opposite of what community-facing content needs.

Yes, and for Kreyòl that is the usual arrangement — our Kreyòl talent records through our global network rather than in London. You can direct live over Source-Connect, Zoom or Teams so you hear takes as they happen and can adjust on the spot.

Plain and direct. Much Kreyòl work is material people are meant to act on, and an over-formal read — often the symptom of a script translated from French — puts distance between the message and the listener. We direct for clarity and warmth, and we will flag a script pitched more formally than its audience needs.

Public-health and vaccination campaigns, emergency and disaster communication, NGO and development programmes, community and civic information, eLearning, diaspora-facing media in the US and Canada, and corporate video.

Broadcast-grade WAV, MP3 or stems at your platform's sample rate, bit depth and loudness. Send the spec alongside the brief.

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.

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.

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.
