About Being An Audiobook Narrator
How is audiobook narration different?
The narration of an audiobook is a different craft than other types of voice acting. A voice actor must:
- Transform written text into something listeners will not only enjoy, but get lost in.
- Be able to bring words to life. Multiple characters, changing story lines, varying moods.
- Understand perspectives. Be able to convey the differences between them.
- Use breath control! Long stories? Many hours of using the voice can take its toll. Voice acting training can help with this.
- Master time management skills. A 30 chapter book can’t be read all in one week! Want to meet the publisher’s deadlines? The voice talent must plan accordingly.
- Most important! Tell the story as the author intended. After all, you are the messenger of the writer’s point of view.
Rachel Alena is currently an audiobook narrator for Momosa Publishing and has been the audiobook narrator for best selling author Tony Jeton Selimi.
