THE ART AND SKILL OF AUDIOBOOK NARRATION

THIS SATURDAY
JUST ONE SEAT LEFT!

ANNOUNCING

A SPECIAL ONE-DAY
L.A. WORKSHOP:

THE ART AND SKILL

OF AUDIOBOOK NARRATION


 If a 30-second spot is like running a 50-yard dash

and a 60-second spot is like running a 100-yard dash,

narrating an audiobook is like running a marathon!

It’s the ultimate in long-form narration.
But it's more in demand than ever.
Audiobook narration is the only sector of publishing that's increasing,
and that pays $150-$250/hr.

It takes a lot of specialized skill-sets to pull it off.
Want to know how to break into audiobooks?
How to sustain your voice for hundreds of pages?
How to develop characters and remember them?
Want to be directed by one of the top
audiobook director/producers in the U.S.
This one-day workshop is your chance to be in front of
Dan Musselman,
Grammy®Award-winning
Executive Producer of
Books on Tape/Random House.

He’ll be in the studio directing you on actual
audiobook passages that he uses to audition new talent,

and show you exactly what you need to know

to make it in the competitive arena of audiobook narration.
