SCENE 01 / VOICEOVER CASTING
Voiceover Casting Services
Expert voice talent casting for commercials, films, and digital content.
Here is how this works in practice. Voiceover casting identifies and selects vocal performers for narration, character voices, dubbing (dobragem), and commercial reads. Portugal has a distinctive voiceover market where subtitling is traditionally preferred for adult content. But a growing dubbing sector — above all for children's programming and animation — is centered in Lisbon, with voice talent offering authentic European Portuguese that is distinct from Brazilian Portuguese.
Here is the short of it. We set up voiceover casting sessions with access to Portugal's pool of voice artists. This includes native European Portuguese speakers suited to your project's language and market needs. Our team manages audition logistics through Lisbon and Porto casting networks, talent shortlisting, and session booking at pro studios.

On Location
Voiceover casting in European Portuguese — distinct from Brazilian Portuguese — across Lisbon and Porto recording studios, with Lusofonia bridging to 250M+ Portuguese speakers and reciprocal dubbing-talent stacks for animation and children's programming.
Here is how this works in practice. Our voiceover casting team sources native European Portuguese voice talent (clearly distinct from Brazilian Portuguese in vowel system, sibilance, vocabulary, and idiom) for dobragem (dubbing), narração (narration), publicidade (commercial), and audiobook reads. Recording sessions stage from Lisbon pro studios (Estúdios Valentim de Carvalho voice booths, Caleidoscópio audio rooms, On Air Studios, Tcha Tcha Tcha) and Porto facilities (Estúdio Imediato, Roundabout Studios), with remote-record options through Source Connect Pro and ipDTL when global clients direct from Los Angeles, New York, London, or Paris.
Here is the breakdown. Portugal's voiceover market in the past favored subtitling for adult content — RTP, SIC, and TVI TV networks subtitle imported drama. But the dubbing sector grows steadily for children's programming, animation (Disney+ PT, Netflix The country, HBO Max PT, Paramount+ PT children's catalogues), educational content, and gaming localisation. STE-registered voice talent rates negotiate against published scales. With usage rights, residuals, and area clearances flowing through GDA (Gestão dos Direitos dos Artistas) collection.
Here is the short of it. European Portuguese voice talent draws from the country's broadcast and stage traditions. RTP-trained narrators with decades on flagship documentary, ESTC (Escola Best de Teatro e Cinema) graduate voice actors, Teatro Nacional D. Maria II and Teatro Aberto stage performers crossing into voice. The Fado-singer crossovers (Mariza, Cuca Roseta, Ana Moura) who occasionally cross into narration. Lusofonia reach extends to Brazilian Portuguese voice talent (when projects target Brazilian SVOD release across Globoplay, Netflix Brasil), Angolan and Mozambican Portuguese variants, and Cape Verdean Kriolu-inflected reads.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Global references have Wim Wenders' Lisbon Story narration in 1994 carrying European Portuguese voice work, the Glória Netflix-first 2021 setting Portuguese-language broadcast-drama voice norms, and Rabo de Peixe Azores 2022 capturing the distinct Açorean accent variant. Casting packages ship with rights-clearance records through GDA / SPA, IGAC type flags, 23 percent IVA invoicing, and CNPD/RGPD-compliant voice-data handling.
