NONE. Our professional service is free! The price you pay for all non-broadcast recordings is buyout, meaning you don't have any residuals or royalties to pay.

However, if the usage changes from what was originally paid for, then additional fees must be paid. For example, if you book and pay for a TV spot, that is then used online six months later, you must pay for that additional usage. If you're going to use a voice over within your company (non-broadcast) and also use it online (public viewing) you just need to book the voice actor at the higher rate of the two. In this case it would be INTERNET USAGE.
