Developer Tips and Tricks

Most of our voice artists speak around 140 words per minute. If you divide a script by 140 you can get a rough estimate of how long it should be voiced (this does not account for audio that has alt reads, lots of breaths or space in it.)

You can also utilize this formula to get a rough estimate of how long storyline slides should be if you have 1 paragraph per slide. For example a paragraph that's 86 words long would be around 36 seconds long (give or take.) You get this estimate by 86 / 140 = 0.61 (or 61% of 140) x 60 seconds = 36.8 seconds.
