Okay, I'm going to sound super dramatic here, forgive me. But this is the first time I've actually seen someone else record for an audiobook, and I had no idea other people mess up while reading as often as naturally occurs. I literally started tearing up listening to you use the clicker realizing that I wasn't the only one...I literally thought that most people just read without error. So, I guess, thanks for being yourself and putting out this real life example. :) Also, your voice is stunning.

Your advice made the process straightforward and enjoyable. Bless you Angela. You’re an angel.

I'm very slow in my progress. I've chosen ACX as my entry into Voice Acting. I've done about 25 books so far. So, I'm still pretty new. But, I'll tell you that it's a great way for you to figure out your DAW. I work it like a job. I narrate and edit about 8 hours per day. Currently, I get $100-$300 per finished hour. That's not great, but it's okay. You'll go crazy nit picking your fx chain and all of that side of the business. But, you'll find a reasonable solution. During this time, I've also done some other work. I played a White House Intern during President Nixon's administration in a documentary. I played the role of an angry Father in an Anime adventure. I've done the Intro and outro's of a couple of amazing podcasts. One of them was a podcast to help military people transitions to civilian life. I'm very humbled to have been a part of that one. Being a Voice Actor is the best job I've ever had. This is what I was meant to do. I can't wait for the next surprise!

@@EdgarHammer847 I'm on my second year. ACX is just for audiobook production. The other work is from Fiverr. I'm planning on expanding to other platforms soon. I have enjoyed all of the work I've done so far. So, I'm not sure what niche I'll end up in but I hope it's something I enjoy. So far I've done audiobook narration, advertisements, anime, a documentary, podcast intros/outros, and vo for a youtube video. I haven't done any e-learning so far. Are you a voice actor? Or, thinking about getting into it? If so, let me know if there's anything I can do to help. Like I said, I'm not that advanced yet. But, I know enough to help someone just starting out. But, I think Angela has a coaching program so that might be a better bet.

@kennymonty8206

@@thecrowing1989 I think the goal is to work up to 2 hours of recording and editing to produce 1 finished hour. However, for myself, it takes me a lot longer, maybe 3-4 hours. In the beginning and up until you really figure out you're daw within your particular space, a lot of time is lost editing to overcome your ignorance with that. It's hard to get help getting your space treatment adequate and then your fx chain dialed in. Some people are naturally better at the technical stuff though so it varies. Then, you just have to get rid of any noises, breaths, dog's barking, traffic, adjust the pacing so it maximizes the natural conversational feel depending on the type of work, etc. Hope some that helps.

It was interesting when you said that you use the clicker to mark your mistakes. However, I do wish you would have slightly went into more detail with that little tidbit. When I heard you say that really quickly although it was just a small thing I got the sense that it was something that would help with the overall process of what your working on. Therefore, increasing your efficiency. So if I'm right then I'd like to know how other then just taking a guess. Especially cuz it seems like one of your own personal methods. You know?

Thanks so much for your time in helping us audio newbies learn how to swim without feeling overwhelmed! You're so awesome! I've mostly been anxious about what recording software to use; they all seem daunting with a lot of unfamiliar terms, buttons, and mechanics. Adobe Audition looks like a really user-friendly and approachable software, but I'm seeing that it's a monthly subsription, and it feels a bit steep. Can it not be purchased outright once? And, if not, do you know any other user-friendly audio softwares that would be just as great? Thanks again, Angela! Stay as awesome as you are.

Hi Angela, is there any excercise you do to have a good vocal? Or routine to protect or make sure your voice is in a good condition? Please share that too. It will be greatly appreciated. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 😊

One thing I always had to overcome was being born in Brooklyn, New York. I was raised in Brooklyn, and graduated high school on Long Island, New York. I spent 22 years in the Marines, and I effectively lost, or more accurately, denied my accent. I can turn it on and turn it off. I graduated from the Academy of Radio Broadcasting in Newport Beach, California. I worked at KTMS, Santa Barbara, weekend board op, and KHVH, Honolulu, as weekend morning host. Now that I am an old timer, I would love to find work where I can use my voice and experience to narrate or present audio books in a unique voice.

Hi Angela! firstly, I simply can not describe to you, just how helpful your videos are to me. Although I've been singing and performing for 46 years, recording is very new to me. I have done work for local producers, including voice and screen acting. But, they did all the technical work! You, and your video content are a true blessing... Thank you so very much.

Hi! The editing and technical end can be intimidating, for sure. However, being able to self produce the voice overs and audiobooks all in house will be cost effective and beneficial for both you and your clients. I love adobe audition too!

i worked in radio and Tv for years until my last gig as producer and host went south in 1993. Now I'm a mortician (what a transition!), but I'd like to try getting back behind the mic again. I hope I can try narrating audio books. I love this video! You've shown me how to get my foot in the door, and I'm going to subscribe to your website.

Thanks HUGE for this. I just started audiobooks last year, signing my first royalty-share before I realized it was basically working for free. But a great noob experience, before signing my first upfront paid book - as you noted. Auditioning most definitely is a learning curve that takes practice to perfect :)
