WTF DOES THAT MEAN? A VOICE ACTOR’S GUIDE TO VO INDUSTRY TERMS
For too long, voice actors have been stumbling through conversations with producers, clients, and even each other—afraid to ask what “full buyout” means, unsure how to explain “usage,” and completely lost when someone drops “P2P” or “white label VO” into the chat like it’s common knowledge.
I built this dictionary so you never have to feel like that again.
“It’s not rocket science—it’s voiceover. But you’d never know it from the jargon.”
