5 Mistakes When Voicing Videos for YouTube

A voice-over makes a video look professional — or sinks it. Here are the five mistakes that come up most often.

The top five

• Too fast a pace with no pauses — the viewer cannot keep up.
• Monotony across long stretches.
• Wrong stress on terms and names.
• Abrupt joins between fragments.
• Volume not matched to the music.

Most of these are fixed in minutes: place pauses with the "Pause" tool in the editor, check the stress, and regenerate the problem phrases.
