Narrator Voice Talent - What Exactly Do They Do?
August 13, 2008

Have you ever wondered what an narrator voice talent does for you?
Here’s a list of the different roles and responsibilities that a narrator talent performs while working on your projects. The following may surprise you.
Voice Talent are…
- Performers.
- Business owners.
- Project managers.
- Consultants.
- Artistic directors.
- Recording engineers.
- Text Editors and interpreters.
- Mixing and mastering engineers.
- Accountants.
- Customer service and fulfillment.
These professionals often assume the roles of many people while performing, producing the narration, and serving you as their customer.
If you were to work through an advertising agency or creative studio, several different people would provide these services and premium charges would be applied to each task. Why would it be a vastly different case when working with one person who performs all of these for you in a timely manner without markups for the professional services they provide?
Buying directly from the source does have its benefits and cost savings, but it is also important to recognize the amount of work, effort, and creativity that goes into each audio book recording, whether it be a simple introduction or a full novel narration.
The voice actor that you employ will appreciate the recognition and respect that you give them for their work.
Some food for thought the next time that you hire a narrator voice talent.
Best wishes,
David
