Spanish Voice Over Artists

Spanish is the world's second most spoken native language, with over 490 million native speakers across 20+ countries. Originating from the Castilian dialects of medieval Spain, it spread globally through the era of Spanish colonisation and has since developed into a rich family of regional varieties across Europe, the Americas, and beyond.

Castilian Spanish (spoken in Spain) is distinguished by its use of the 'th' sound for 'c' and 'z'. Latin American Spanish encompasses a wide range of varieties — from the Caribbean lilt of Cuban and Puerto Rican Spanish to the precise enunciation of Mexican and Andean Spanish. Argentine Spanish is further distinguished by its Italian-influenced intonation and use of 'vos' instead of 'tú'.

For global Spanish campaigns, a neutral Latin American accent is often preferred as it is broadly understood across all markets. Castilian Spanish is essential for Spain-specific content. For Mexico — the world's largest Spanish-speaking market by country — Mexican Spanish voice talent is strongly recommended. Always specify your target region when posting your project brief.

Spanish voice-overs tend to run slightly longer than English equivalents (typically 10–15% more words for equivalent information). Standard delivery averages 140–160 words per minute. Latin American Spanish is often delivered at a slightly faster pace than Castilian. Always time your adapted script before recording to avoid pacing issues.
