Want to work with Shark Bytes…but how do I get started?
It’s easy! Simply give us a phone call to describe what you’re looking for, or
request our questionnaire form via e-mail! We’d like to know what you’re looking
for in your commercial – the name of the business, what type of ad you’d like to
create, and the information you’d like the public to know! If you have your own
script, you can send it to us at anytime, just make sure to let us know about
difficult or regional pronunciations, male or female read, hard or soft sell,
background music and how you’d like us to read it for you! Also, make sure we
have your billing info! If you have any questions, you can always call us toll-free at
1.866.944.1686!
How fast can Shark Bytes record my audio?
Very Fast! With an available voice, sometimes as little as 1 hour. Shark Bytes
Studios provides a 24-hour turnaround in most instances. (this is 24 hours for
scripts, and another 24 for production – though we can often get both done within
one 24 hour period or faster.) Keep in mind we have a lot of clients, and will attend
to production requests in the order received. Under extenuating and rare
circumstances, such as extremely busy seasons, (such as Christmas) or if you
have requested a particular voice who is currently unavailable, the time may be
extended.
How do you handle re-do’s? Will I be charged again if my client
are unhappy with the read?
Shark Bytes Studios attempts to provide the best quality on every occasion;
however, we realize that you can’t please every one 100% of the time. Should
your client be genuinely displeased with the production, we will do our best to
accommodate changes free of charge, However, if the client is unhappy due to
script changes, going from a male read to female, factual errors, or pronunciations
that we were not given, or other factors that are outside of our control as a studio,
there will be an extra charge. After all, we need to pay our talent for every job!
How will I receive my audio and what file formats do you use?
We can accommodate most types of file formats including wav, mp3, aif, and
others. Most often, we will send a high-quality MP3 to an e-mail address you will
provide. How ever, we can accommodate larger files by uploading them to your
FTP or by posting them on our web server, so you can conveniently download
them from us. Should you need it, we can also mail or overnight express CD’s
Cassettes and reels to you – however, express sending will be done at the
requester’s expense.
How can you afford to charge such low prices?
Simply put, volume. We have over 850 clients and growing that request
commercials. We do not under any circumstance sacrifice quality. Our writers,
producers and voices work hard to ensure that every one of our clients is as
satisfied with their audio as they would be with the product from any
competing…and usually more expensive…studio.
How can I pay you?
Shark Bytes Studios will e-mail you an invoice at the end of every month for the
work you’ve done with us during that month. Currently we accept cash, checks
and Paypal, payable within 30 days of your receipt of the invoice. Should your
account fall into arrears of more than two months, production service will cease
until your account is brought up to date.
Can I request a particular voice, or more than one? Is there an
additional charge?
Generally, There is no extra charge for requesting a certain voice. Shark-Bytes
Studios includes one voice free with your spots. In the case of multi-voice ads,
you will be charged an additional $10 per-voice fee. These prices are listed
above.
I need a music bed! Can you send me one?
Yes! Shark Bytes has a variety of Royalty Free Music bed's for purchase ($20.00).
You will find the link on the main page. We also have the ability to compose
unique music beds to fit almost any description – though this service will come
with a per-hour studio charge and will extend the 24-hour turnaround of your spot.
Can you do character voices, accents and celebrity
impersonations?
Absolutely! Just let us know who you’re looking for, and we’ll do our best to
accommodate. However, some announcers may do this at a slightly increased
rate, taken on a case by case basis!
