What kind of Spanish Voice Over are you looking for?
Having your content available in Spanish represents broadening your horizons to an entirely new audience. With more than 570 million estimated speakers distributed across more than 20 countries, Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world. Therefore, adding a Spanish voice-over through a Spanish Voice Over Agency to your campaign can be the key to reaching your business goals and expanding your markets.
When talking about adding a Spanish voice-over to your campaigns, there are several factors to consider besides the language itself that are closely related to the fact that Spanish is a native tongue in more than 20 countries. First, it’s essential to understand the importance of Spanish localization for all the people who do not speak other languages. Second, you need to determine which variety of Spanish to use for your voice-over, and third, understand that linguistic variations come with cultural differences that need to be addressed as well.
Creating a campaign in your audience’s language will not only ensure that they can understand what you are offering, but also generate a feeling of empathy. Audiences accessing content in their own language can feel a sense of belonging and equality, leading to a stronger bond with the brand and, thus, increased potential sales. Enhance this feeling by adapting the content’s language as well as the dialect and the target culture.
For example, creating a campaign in both European and Latin American variations of Spanish will equally target both regions. If you are looking to expand into new markets such as Latin America and Spain, it is advisable to create a specific campaign for each of the Spanish-speaking countries. Furthermore, you can also adapt the content in your campaign based on each region’s cultural references and needs, targeting its pain points and interests directly.

Applications of Spanish Voice over in different types of content
Spanish voice over can be leveraged in any type of content aimed at a Spanish-speaking audience.
However, it might be particularly beneficial in:
- Advertising, where generating a feeling of empathy and belonging is key to creating a bond with potential customers in new markets.
- Corporate communications, where all employees should feel equally represented across countries
- E-learning, where concepts need to be clearly explained in the students’ language in order to guarantee the correct transmission of knowledge.
Aside from language and dialect, in voice over you also get to choose the tone and register to use. Do you want a friendly, professional, funny, or even scary voice? Should it be a female or a male voice actor?
All of these variables must be taken into account in voice-overs, and choosing the appropriate one will make the difference in your content’s success. In the previous examples, advertising needs an engaging voice that can show enthusiasm for the product being promoted and the gender should be based on its target audience. In the case of corporate communications, the tone must be professional and informative, while an e-learning voice over actor should be able to convey information while keeping a tone that does not make students bored.
Other languages spoken in Spain
Did you know? Spanish is not the only language spoken in Spain. In addition to Spanish, residents of different regions also speak Catalan, Galician, Basque, and Valencian, among others. These are often mistakenly considered dialects of Spanish, but they are in fact distinct languages. Catalan, Galician, and Valencian share similarities with Spanish, as well as with French and Portuguese, due to historical interactions in bordering areas. Basque, on the other hand, is a language isolate with no known relation to any other language.
At the same time, most of these languages are co-official in certain autonomous regions. A clear example is Catalan, which is spoken in Catalonia as much as Spanish.
For this reason, creating voice overs in Catalan or other Spanish languages can be a great choice to create a stronger bond with your audience in these regions, especially in advertising campaigns where creating a sentiment of empathy is key to selling a product or service.
