Revisions
Corrected files for misreads are always provided at no additional charge.
If the script is recorded in a self-directed session, rate includes one round of minor pickups for tone, inflection, or points of emphasis.
Minor pickups are generally considered to be <20% of the original script. One round of minor revisions within 30 days of the original recording are included with the rate. Changes exceeding these parameters will incur additional session fees.
If voice over was recorded in a live directed session, pickups for changes in script, tone, inflection, or points of emphasis are billed at $195 per half hour of studio time.
Script changes greater than 20% but less than half of original script length are billed at 50% of the original rate.
Script changes of more than half original script length are considered a full re-read and are billed at the full original rate

Artificial Intelligence (AI) usage
Voice recording delivered is not authorized for use as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning or other data/algorithmic input for purposes of synthetic voice production unless licensure for that specific purpose is explicitly granted in writing. Recordings delivered may not be used to create an artificial voice model of any type, now or in the future, on any platforms or devices known or not yet known unless permission of the performer has been explicitly granted in writing.
