"...the images alone may not tell the whole story. That's where narration fits in. When used well, narration adds depth and harmony to your production. When used poorly, narration can ruin an otherwise perfect project."

"Narration, often called voice over (VO), is the off-camera voice that imparts the important information that the video footage itself doesn't."

"Narration can also impart information not obvious to the viewer. "With millions of visitors each year, Waikiki is perhaps the most famous beach in the world."

"Narration does many other things, too. It can tell the viewer what to look for, or it can summarize the video in a few words."

"The narration will flow better and you'll give your talent a chance to breathe. Narration is often one of those situations where less is more."

"Often, simple pauses can be very effective in highlighting dramatic moments. The narration should reinforce the video, not compete with it."
