How much to charge for writing Scripts?

Kim Somers

Very occasionally, I get a client that asks me to write a script - usually for on hold, but other things as well. Since I a "voice with legs" I have no idea what to charge for this sort of thing.

Any ideas? Any guidelines for this?

Thanks

Hello Kim,

What we can recommend is to check the rate card suggested by Voice 123, it mentions something close, might be helpful: ¨

* Character voices for documentary, audio book, business / corporate and video or multimedia: add $100-$200 to total price
* Character voices for television and radio commercials: add $50-$100 to total price
* Translations: add $0.05 - $0.25 per word
* Post production work, such as adding background music, mixing voices, encoding for specific delivery, etc: adds $150 to $200 per hour. Post production times may vary per job.
