Voice over and narration are often used interchangeably, but they serve different purposes in media production:
Voice Over: This is a broad term that refers to any spoken word added to a media project, including commercials, explainer videos, video games, and more. The voice is often used to convey information, dialogue, or internal thoughts of characters without appearing on screen.
Narration: A specific type of voice over that tells a story or provides commentary throughout a piece of content, such as in documentaries, audiobooks, or guided tours. The narrator’s role is to guide the audience through the content, providing context and insight.
