In more detail
Voiceover separates the audio from what is on screen. You record your script over B-roll, screen recordings, photos, or footage of yourself doing something, so the narration carries the story while the visuals show it. On social platforms it is popular because you can film silently, then add the talking later, which makes editing faster and scripts cleaner. It also lets you reuse or update the voice track without reshooting the video, and it works well for tutorials, listicles, storytelling, and faceless content where no one wants to be on camera.
Example
You film a 30 second clip of yourself making coffee with no sound, then record a separate narration explaining your morning routine and lay it over the footage. Viewers watch the coffee being made while they hear your voice walk through each step.
