What is the best body posture for recording voice overs ?
When you think of recording voice over for commercial,e-learning,documentary ,white board animation ,ivr ,dubbing etc. The first thought comes in your mind is, in which body posture one should record voice overs -Standing or Sitting ?
Your voice tends to change when you try to adjust your body posture while recording in a sound studio.
Recording voice over while standing is actually not mandatory it depends on voice over artist what best suits to him or her.
Standing posture works on dubbing for specific characters but for long sessions standing won't work
:( In fact it will make your recording inconsistent :( ,so before recording E-learning or long recording sessions think twice- Stand or Sit ? So it is always advisable to sit ,that will help you in maintaining your voice tone throughout the recording session and you wont get tired.
