Phonetic guidance for every script Clearer pronunciation

1. Define Persona, Not Just Tone

Context First

Instead of just saying "professional", explain who the voice represents: character context, relationship to listener, and emotional subtext.

Try instead: “Tech-savvy colleague having coffee with a peer” “Calm museum curator”

2. Provide Pronunciation Guides

Phonetics & Audio Memos

Foreign brand names, medical jargon, and industry acronyms should be spelled phonetically or recorded on a smartphone voice memo to avoid costly pick-up sessions.

SQL → /SEE-kwel/ VoIP → /VOYP/ 10s voice memo recommended

3. Match Word Count to Video Timing

130–150 WPM

Standard natural reading pace is 130 to 150 words per minute. For a 30-second commercial, keep copy under 65 words so the talent has room to breathe without sounding rushed.

30s ad ≤ 65 words 60s ad ≤ 130 words Room for music cues
