Audiobook Performance Tips w/ Scott Brick, Patrick Fraley, and Hillary Huber

[celenelomeli]

on the flipside you narrators are my rock stars!! I am blind and I have been reading audiobooks for over 10 years. Sometimes this is the only way to explore life outside of vision! Love you guys and appreciate all you do more than you know!

Hillary, Patrick and Scott in one room offering nuggets of narration gold.

Thanks for uploading the video.

"we want to be guided into how we should think and feel by the narrator" - brilliant! these 3 are amazing

[TheEldritchArchives]

"The author is in punctuation prison and we have the key to get them out" - that is an excellent way to think about it!

Scott Brick is one of my favorite voice actors....not sure if I have heard the others.

This is the most informative and instructive 10 minutes on audiobook narration I have ever heard! Thank you!

I've read, watched, and listened to a lot, and I do mean a lot, of resources on performing Voice Over and this short video on Voice Acting for Audiobooks is one of the best!!!
When providing tips and recommendations, these pros get right to the point with Dos and Don'ts, and they All emphasize the critical importance of knowing what the book listener is expecting, along with remembering what the book author had in mind.
Thank you so, so much for Sharing this!

The advice about cadence was exactly what I was looking for. This entire video was helpful.

Everything that Scott said I can now picture him doing in the narrations of his I have heard. Brilliant.

[TheCoffeeLife]

I love this! This was so encouraging! Those three are great teachers.

<3 I love Scott Brick. I first listened to him in Deep Storm and I've been hooked ever since. That man could read me a phone book <3

[millennialfalcon]

Scott is my absolute favorite. My favorite performance of his is definitely Jon Krakauer’s “Under the Banner of Heaven”

[dardobartoli]

Scott is wonderful...makes average books great

[BackyardSwingset]

you are such great teachers. great. thank you for more pearls!

[mog-gyveroneill]

Omg..Scott is one of my fav readers, but does NOT look like my mind's picture!! It was especially like that with RC Bray!! Actually😁..it's the same with a lot of narrators, they create so many different 'faces' when reading..I do not watch TV, I listen to, probably, 6 audiobooks a week, depending on length of course..so I do love me a good narrator(..and exclamation marks it seems..)!!

[davebondo]

Bravo! Some of the best instruction I've heard. Thank you to all.

When I ran out of favorite authors to listen to, I picked unknown authors by which audiobooks were narrated by Scott Brick. First time I ever saw his face. NOT what I imagined.

Aiden Snow narrates the Callaghan series by Annie Zanders - ALL the voices. Seven brothers, their father, a close friend and ALL their SO's. Every voice is distinct and the drama Aiden injects is perfect. He has made an excellent series great. Ive listened to all 8 books at least 3 times.

I love listening to Scott. The Ron Chernow’s books on Hamilton and Washington were my first experiences with audiobooks. The fiction audio books have been disappointing, but am enjoying Scott’s reading of In Cold Blood. I guess I read both male and female in my own voice in my head so like the subtle differentiation he gives to his characters.

Terrific stuff. Such gifted audio book narrators. I wish all the names of the people who read excerpts were listed, though. Thanks a heap.
