Whether you need a single English narration for a corporate training video or a complete multilingual voice-over package in twelve languages for an international eLearning platform, Gotham Lab handles every aspect of production from script translation through final audio delivery.

Gotham Lab has been producing voice-over for advertising, audio guides, audiobooks, animation, corporate videos, and eLearning content for nearly two decades.

Our New York City
Recording Studio

Gotham Lab’s in-house recording studio in Midtown Manhattan is equipped with industry-standard professional audio production tools — Pro Tools, Logic Pro, and Vegas Pro — alongside top-tier microphones, preamps, acoustic treatment, and monitoring systems that deliver the pristine broadcast-quality audio our clients require for film, television, streaming, and international distribution.

Our experienced audio engineers and voice directors bring decades of production expertise to every session. We work with each voice talent on delivery, pacing, tone, and pronunciation — ensuring the final recording captures exactly the performance your content requires. For multilingual sessions, a native-speaking language director is available to guide voice talent on pronunciation, regional dialect, and cultural nuance — a level of linguistic oversight that English-only production studios cannot provide.

Our studio has hosted some of the most acclaimed performers in film and theater, including Academy Award-winning actor Daniel Day-Lewis. The same professional environment, engineering standards, and directorial expertise we bring to every high-profile session is applied to every project we produce — regardless of scale.

Virtual Client Monitoring — At No Additional Charge

Every Gotham Lab voice-over session is available for virtual client monitoring via video conference at no additional charge. You can listen in live, provide real-time direction, and approve takes as they happen — from anywhere in the world. This is a standard feature of our production workflow, not an add-on service. It gives clients complete creative control and eliminates the need to travel to New York for recording sessions.

AI-Assisted Voice Production — Speed, Scale & Human Quality

The voice-over industry is undergoing a significant transformation driven by AI voice synthesis technology. AI-generated voices have reached a level of quality and naturalness that makes them a viable option for certain content types — particularly high-volume, budget-sensitive projects where speed and scale are prioritized over nuanced human performance.

Gotham Lab offers AI-assisted voice production as an option alongside our professional human voice-over recording services. We use industry-leading AI voice synthesis tools to generate multilingual voice-over in 50+ languages for clients who require rapid content production, frequent updates, or large-scale multilingual output at controlled cost. Every AI-generated voice project at Gotham Lab is reviewed and quality-approved by our NYC-based audio team before delivery — ensuring accuracy, naturalness, and linguistic precision that fully automated pipelines cannot guarantee.

AI-assisted voice production at Gotham Lab — human-reviewed multilingual voice-over New York City

When AI Voice Is the Right Choice

AI-assisted voice production works exceptionally well for the following content types:

  • eLearning modules and online courses requiring rapid multilingual deployment across many languages simultaneously
  • Corporate training videos with frequent content updates — AI voice allows script changes to be rerecorded in minutes rather than days
  • IVR systems and on-hold messaging in multiple languages
  • Internal communications and employee onboarding content where broadcast quality is not required
  • Product demonstration videos and explainer content at high volume
  • Prototype and review versions — AI voice for client approval before committing to full human recording budget

When Human Voice-Over Is the Right Choice

Professional human voice talent remains the definitive choice for content where performance, emotion, brand credibility, and audience connection are non-negotiable:

  • Film, television, and streaming platform content requiring authentic human performance
  • Commercial advertising where brand voice and emotional resonance drive results
  • Museum audio guides where tone, warmth, and storytelling quality define the visitor experience
  • Documentary narration requiring authority, nuance, and narrative presence
  • Animation and character voice work requiring genuine performance range
  • Any content where the voice is the primary creative and commercial asset

Not sure which approach is right for your project? Contact our NYC team for a free consultation. We will recommend the production approach that best serves your content, your audience, and your budget — with no bias toward either option.

• Delivery in all required audio formats — MP3, WAV, AIFF, and custom formats for proprietary audio guide systems

Contact us to discuss your museum or cultural institution audio guide project. We have worked with institutions of every size — from small community museums to large international cultural organizations — and can scale our production to meet your timeline and budget.

Museum & Cultural Institution Audio Guide Production

Gotham Lab has been producing multilingual audio guides for museums, galleries, historic sites, and cultural institutions for nearly two decades. Our audio guide productions can be heard at cultural institutions around the world — from major metropolitan museums to regional galleries to internationally recognized historic landmarks. If you have visited a museum or cultural attraction anywhere in the world, there is a reasonable chance you have heard a Gotham Lab production.

Museum audio guide production requires a specific combination of capabilities that most voice-over studios cannot provide — multilingual production across dozens of languages, consistent voice quality and direction across long-form narration content, cultural and linguistic review by native-speaking specialists, and audio engineering expertise for the specific playback systems used in museum environments. Gotham Lab provides all of these capabilities in-house from our New York City studio.

Our Museum Audio Guide Services Include:

Script translation and cultural adaptation in 50+ languages by subject-matter specialists

Voice casting matched to the tone, authority, and warmth appropriate to each institution’s brand

Recording and direction in our NYC studio with native-speaking language directors

Audio engineering and post-production for handheld audio guide devices, smartphone apps, and fixed installation systems

Quality review of all narration for accuracy, pronunciation, pacing, and cultural appropriateness

Delivery in all required audio formats — MP3, WAV, AIFF, and custom formats for proprietary audio guide systems

Voice-Over Rates — Transparent Pricing

Gotham Lab’s voice-over rates are among the most competitive in New York City. Our in-house model eliminates the agency markup, studio rental fees, and coordination costs that inflate prices when production is spread across multiple vendors.

What types of voice-over services does Gotham Lab provide?

Lip-sync dubbing starts from $128 per finished minute — approximately $640 per session hour with around 5 finished minutes of output per hour. Commercial voice-over, museum audio guides, and eLearning projects are priced per project based on script length, language count, and format requirements. Contact us for a free project quote — we respond within one business day.
Do you provide multilingual voice-over recording?
Yes. Gotham Lab records voice-over in 50+ languages — all performed by hand-selected native speakers with professional experience in your specific content type and industry. All multilingual voice-over is produced in our NYC studio with a native-speaking language director present to guide pronunciation, regional dialect, and cultural nuance. From Spanish and French to Mandarin, Arabic, Japanese, Korean, German, Portuguese, and beyond. Request a sample.
Can clients monitor recording sessions remotely?
Yes — virtual client monitoring via video conference is available for every Gotham Lab recording session at no additional charge. You can listen in live, provide real-time direction to the voice talent and engineering team, and approve takes as they happen — from anywhere in the world. This is a standard feature of our production workflow, not an add-on service. Contact us to schedule a session.
What is AI-assisted voice production and do you offer it?
Yes. Gotham Lab offers AI-assisted voice production alongside our professional human voice-over recording services. AI-generated voice-over is well-suited for high-volume content — eLearning modules, corporate training, IVR systems, and content requiring frequent updates. Every AI voice project at Gotham Lab is reviewed and quality-approved by our NYC audio team before delivery. For film, commercial advertising, museum audio guides, and any content where performance and brand credibility are essential, we recommend professional human voice talent. Contact us to discuss which option is right for your project.
Do you provide voice-over for museum audio guides?
Yes — museum and cultural institution audio guide production is one of Gotham Lab's core specializations. We have been producing multilingual audio guides for museums, galleries, historic sites, and cultural institutions worldwide for nearly two decades. We provide script translation, voice casting, recording and direction, audio engineering, and delivery in all audio guide formats. Learn more about our museum audio guide services.
What is the difference between non-sync voice-over and lip-sync dubbing?
Non-sync voice-over replaces or adds spoken audio to a video without matching the timing to an actor's lip movements on screen. It is used for documentary narration, eLearning, corporate video, and content where the speaker is not visible on screen. Lip-sync dubbing precisely matches new dialogue to the original actor's mouth movements — required for film, television, animation, and any content where the speaker's face is visible. Lip-sync dubbing is significantly more time-intensive and therefore more expensive than non-sync voice-over. Learn more about our film localization and dubbing services.
How long does voice-over production take?
A standard corporate or eLearning voice-over project of 10–20 finished minutes in a single language typically requires 1–3 business days including session scheduling, recording, and post-production delivery. Multilingual projects covering multiple languages simultaneously are coordinated by a single project manager with timelines confirmed per project. Rush delivery is available for broadcast and distribution deadlines. Contact us with your project details for a precise timeline.
Do you provide voice-over for eLearning and corporate training?
Yes. Gotham Lab provides multilingual voice-over for eLearning courses, LMS platforms, MOOCs, corporate training modules, employee onboarding content, and executive communications in 50+ languages. We offer both professional human voice-over recording and AI-assisted voice production for high-volume eLearning content. All eLearning voice-over is delivered in your required audio format and LMS-compatible specifications. Learn more about our eLearning localization services.
Is all voice-over production done in New York?
Yes — all voice-over recording, direction, audio engineering, and post-production is handled in-house by our New York City team at 340 W 42nd St #2424, New York, NY 10108. We never outsource recording sessions to third-party studios or subcontracted engineers. Virtual client monitoring is available for all sessions at no additional charge.
