Audio Book Narration Tips for Beginners

[@jasonfella265]

Something you said in your video made me come back and comment, because it was so absolutely awesome. When you said that, only a handful of people may ever hear the story you tell, maybe even only one person. But that person will never hear the story if you don't tell it. That will stay with me for a long time. Thanks for the inspiration =)

I have been narrating for ACX for five years. I am working on my 100th book and have sold 3750 books. Most of them on royalty share. I like your candor. Very few people make it as a sole source of income. The way I look at it is a hobby that pays a little.

[@joananna9564]

hey, I have a doubt can I edit my audio before submitting it for audition on acx because I have some noises going on in the background so I edited it using an app. is that ok???

[@simmerchester9252]

@@joananna9564 I would think that you have to. If there's noises in the background, ACX will ask you to make the changes before they okay it.

[@littleiglesias]

Hey, I have just started with ACX. I was wondering if you start narrating a book from the forewood, synopsis or just chapter 1? Thanks for your help

[@simmerchester9252]

@@littleiglesias It all depends on the author or publisher. Most times, they will explicitly tell you where to start from and what to omit. If in doubt, contact the author/publisher. There are no hard and fast rules about this.

Thank you so much for this video! To be honest, I've spent the last ten years thinking, "What do i want to do with my life?" Then I had an epiphany. I love to read, I love to tell stories. I used to spend hours, whole days even, reading aloud to my mother. It hit me like a ton of bricks. This is what I want to do. And for the first time, this was the first career I've considered where my first thought wasn't, "How much money am I going to make?" Twelve dollars or twelve thousand, I don't care. Thank you for the advice, I truly appreciate it.

I have just had a light bulb moment and thought to myself “I like telling a story, I wonder how I can get into narration?” So I googled it and found this great video. Thanks!

[@katiem4935]

Me too!

[@OCUBOX]

Try listening to an annoying voice for 8+ hours, the voice is very important, but mainly, can you ACT. Acting is important in all forms of voice work. Your goal as an audiobook narrator is to hand hold the listener through the story, not speeding up for example, when things get heated/tense, which will make the listener pay more attention, even physically lean in, because they're like, WHAT HAPPENS NEXT, READ FASTER! I want to KNOW FFS! That is where you should be cautious of employing the same steady pace...There are just so many things that make a narration engaging (I have listened to a lot of audio-books, and will not go passed a minute, if the narrator sounds bad, I have to like their voice is what I'm saying). So if you're blessed with a great voice, then that's one less thing to worry too much about in the session as a VO artist, yes, Artist.

[@Missy-Leigh]

Ha ha. My unedited audio is hilarious. I edit it myself but the channel I do narration for always wants my uncut file for entertainment. It was never about money for me. I love to speak. I love everything about communication. And I cut my first “spot” sitting in my dads lap in front of a mic of a little mom and pop radio station that he ran. This is my favorite video advice on this subject. Virtual fist bump, Mr Kevin Clay.

[@michaelhoward4152]

Thank you, Kevin! You share some sound, thoughtful, and realistic information that I feel every aspiring Book Narrator should hear. I know it helped me immensely! I also deeply appreciate your sharing your Earned Income your first year in Narration. "Nothing good comes easy." And normally, nothing great will come to us quickly. By showing us what you made in your second year of Narration, at least for me, it confirmed that perseverance and dedication can really pay off. I'm more of a Behind The Scenes kind of a guy, and from the enormous amount of Voice Over/Voice Acting resources (books, videos, websites, podcasts, and more) I've consumed, not a lot is focused on Audio Book Narration. I believe that's because the profession isn't seen as "glamorous" as doing commercials, promos, or animation. Couple that with the amount of time you must put in for a single project and that can dissuade many from promoting it or wanting to try it. It's for some of those very reasons, along with my great passion for reading, that make me feel I should pursue it with everything I've got.

Thanks for the kind words. It's not necessarily easy but can be fun and occasionally profitable. Best of luck! :)

After two years and over two dozen titles, I'm just now getting to where I feel confident charging a pro-level pfh rate and think about outsourcing the editing. I've made some mistakes and not only had to learn but had to re-approach a disappointed client to try to make it right. I've learned a lot, and I've had the blessing of working with some really creative folks and tell their stories. That's the WHY for what I do in VO. --David A. Conatser, Storyline Voice-Over

[@kevinclay]

I think that's a perfectly reasonable approach. I wouldn't have felt right charging what the "experts" said I should be charging when I was starting out. Every field has entry level positions and pay. Audiobooks are no different. Best of luck to you! :)

I have been struggling as a video editing freelancer for 2 years and stumbled upon ACX per finished hour gigs, and I'm currently working on 4 books. I have already completed 5 books, mostly 3 hour long ones. I'm pretty blown away. I have never made close to this much money doing video editing, and I only recently discovered I could record voice at all. It's not a huge amount in terms of hourly if you count all of the auditioning and editing, but it's significantly above minimum wage and I don't have a boss, which is kind of the whole point. :) Thanks for your perspective, my friend.

Thank you, Kevin, for your sound advice! No pun intended! lol I am a SAG/AFTRA and AEA Actor. I currently split my time between NYC and Boston, with T.V and Cable Shows. But, lately, things have been terribly slow! Like my Agent has not called me in almost three weeks. So I asked one of my oldest acting teachers about Audio Books, and how to get a great recording of myself; just like my professional Acting reel? Because he had great success early in his acting career in the 1980s and then nothing. But he is a great teacher and in the past 4-5 years had really cracked into ADR! Which in NYC is very hard to do! He, just said read and google about it? Nice huh? But you freely share knowledge; I know took time, a lot of hard work and talent. I thank you for that! Also, I was born, and raised in the city of Boston-so I have a Linguistic teacher in NYC because when I first started acting, it was so bad to watch and listen to my "BoStin'" accent!! Terrible! And tips on how I can practice getting that voice... like yours.. you know? a universal English/American? TY EMB
