NOTE: We now offer remote 121 sessions. In the current environment, to support the government directive of social distancing, you can progress your 121 training with a remote session. These are all very easy to set up – you just need a computer or tablet and we’ll send you a link to connect to our session. People with existing packs of 3 x 121’s, or those who are on a voice over journey, should be able to use their code for these remote sessions. You can book from this link.

Being an Audiobook Narrator is so much more then reading aloud – in these 121 coaching sessions we focus on developing the skills which define a great audiobook narration.  Learn to choose the right material for you, prepare texts, analyse and understand the narrative arc of any text and lead your listeners through the journey.  We look at developing Character Voice choices to engage your audience, pass-on essential workflow tips and techniques, and help you to prepare material for your audiobook demos or auditions. Learn how to produce audiobooks from home.

Our 121 Audiobook Coaching sessions are the next step in developing, growing and fine-tuning your Audiobook Narration over skills, to prepare material for your audiobook demos or rehearse for that next big audition!

I did my drama voice reel with Mike. Mike had obviously thought about each piece before I’d arrived and he was already prepared with some suggestions for musical settings and sound effects, which I had not been expecting. Mike has a strong musical instinct for what is going to work and a massive library at his fingertips. I appreciated how he listened and how he engaged with what I was trying to achieve. It felt like a collaboration and he was both patient and a perfectionist. While I am really looking forward to the final edit, I was delighted with the experience, and I look forward to returning for my next project.
