The first is meant to be read, the latter listened to. Using the tips below you can write your copy in the spoken form it needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Writing for a spoken medium: you have the story just right, in your head. During your presentation to the client you relate it perfectly, everybody is happy. Time to write it down, get into the studio, put the voice-over to work\u2026and that\u2019s when it happens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The voice-over talks and you think \u2018What did they just say?\u2019 Assuming the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-staging.voicebooking.com\/en\/hire-a-voice-over\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">voice talent<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is capable of more than just mumbling, where did it all go wrong? Often it\u2019s a case of written language creeping into a script intended to be spoken aloud.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6I9sQ8TUP-U&amp;feature=emb_logo\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6I9sQ8TUP-U&amp;feature=emb_logo<\/span> <\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Short. Clear.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep sentences short and work with simple vocabulary. And when we mean short, we really mean very short. Sentences with twelve words are already on the long side. 8 words a sentence, max, will work much better. This is the way to get really punchy sentences that are picked up easily by the listener.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is an enormous difference between this and written language, where sentences of 20, even 30 words are perfectly fine. What\u2019s wrong with long sentences you may ask? Simple: there\u2019s a big chance that 28 words in, the listener can\u2019t remember what it was you said at the start of the sentence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take for example a <a href=\"https:\/\/wp-staging.voicebooking.com\/en\/radio-ad-production\">radio commercial<\/a>. There\u2019s no rewind button for radio so the moment the listener loses the thread of the story is the moment you really lose them. On the page it\u2019s very different. You can just read the sentence again. Make sure the sentences in your script are easy to follow and use words that are easily understood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s more, when long sentences are spoken aloud they often take a lot more time than you had anticipated. Floris Briels from Oxford House says: \u2018I often think, this sentence has to work within 4 seconds. Then it turns out you need another 2 or 3 seconds to get it just right.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Think about the timeline<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, there are always occasions when using sentences of 20 or more words is unavoidable. The easiest way to lose your listener in these instances, is to tell the audience things at the beginning of the sentence that don\u2019t get explained until the very end.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, switch the sentence around and make sure your message comes across in the right order. If the timeline makes sense i.e. cause always comes before effect, then it\u2019s possible to write even a 40 word sentence in such a way that the listener can follow it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Avoid wasted breath<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speaking of. Sentences with 28 words or more are rarely written by one person. You need more people for those. Avoid a talking shop, or those unruly meetings where loads of people want to voice an opinion and everyone takes turns pissing on the script.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That \u2018medical screening\u2019 must not, six corrections later, have turned into \u2018a very thorough surgical screening, including a second opinion for both young adults, adults and elderly patients, anyone within the 14-64 year age range\u2019. All you manage to achieve with these kinds of changes is a lot of wasted breath. Nothing more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ilona Lodewijckx from StoryMe describes it like this: \u2018When writing it\u2019s important to make everything really clear and unequivocal. With spoken language context and shared knowledge play a bigger role, things can be left unsaid or indirectly implied\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Embrace the Reversepunchline<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dutch comedian Arjen Lubach took the piss out of them in his TV programme Sunday with Lubach, but man, they work: the reverse punchline (in Dutch \u2018andersomliner\u2019). It\u2019s a trick that the Dutch NOS news use at the top of almost every item. The presenter opens immediately with a striking detail from the story to grab your attention.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Written language:\u00a0<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the Basque region of Spain an enormous forest fire has broken out which, according to Spanish authorities, poses a threat to the town of San Sebastian.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Or using the Reversepunchline, or as in spoken language:<\/i><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A giant forest fire. That\u2019s what has broken out in the Spanish Basque. A fire so enormous\u00a0 that it is threatening the town of San Sebastian. Today tens of firemen are trying to extinguish it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ok, let\u2019s try and translate that into a possible promo for an app.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>On the page:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With our app you will find more than 300 designs who can provide a logo or design for your company.

Fleur van Wijck from the agency In60Seconds can\u2019t say it often enough: \u2018Tripping over something? Do your colleagues not quite get what you\u2019re saying?
