It sounds easy, just open the book and read. You ever listen to
a book on tape? Often a recognizable actor is the voice. Sounds
like a winner, lets have Dustin Hoffman read us a story. A good
idea with mixed results. Why? Because the actor is not
necessarily a good story reader. It is more then inflection. It
is understanding the listeners ear. Understanding the reading
process. Narration of an audio book is not the time for acting,
it is the time for effective communication.
Audio book voice professionals at www.scottradio.com have grown
to understand the unique communication style required in
presenting a book on tape. How does the listener of your
material read the book? An important question. Skim, detailed,
slow, fast? There is a common approach to reading your material,
you must first discover how your readers enjoy your books in
written form. So much vital research is rarely conducted before
narration begins. There are other key elements needed to ensure
a positive listening experience. Scottradio.com understands the
research methods and comprehensive knowledge of the book
narration process, do you?
