Performance Retakes🎭
For undirected sessions, where I am recording the files in my studio at my own direction, if you need me to re-do lines for performance reasons, the 1st round of Performance Retakes will be re-recorded at no cost. Please communicate any and all direction and/or change of direction at this time. After the 1st round of retakes, subsequent rounds are charged as Revisions, as above.
If retakes are required for pronunciation preferences that are not specified in advance either by a pronunciation guide or otherwise in writing, these will be treated as Revisions and are billable.
For example: “nee-ther” vs. “neye-ther” or “oh” vs. “zero”.
When sending a change request, please highlight the lines in the original script or list the full sentence to be re-recorded, the sentence before, and the sentence after so I know what I’m talking about. If applicable, please include the time index of the video so I can better match tone and pace.
Please submit all change requests within 15 days of receiving the original recording. After 15 days, any and all change requests will be charged the original rates.
