Learn To Narrate Audiobooks & Get Jobs:
Bettye Zoller’s Webinars Jan. 18 & Mar. 1
Jan. 4, 2010
 
Is the multi-billion dollar audiobook business growing without you?
 
Opportunities continue to broaden as self-publishers jump in to produce audiobooks alongside the traditional publishing companies. And whatever the fiction or non-fiction genre – all these books need narrators.
 
If entering or expanding your presence in this field is on your to-do list now, the key is to prepare by learning:
  • The secrets of narration
  • How to edit this long-format audio
  • What goes on a winning demo
  • How to book work
These topics and more are detailed in the convenient learn-at-home Audiobooks! Secrets of Narration & Booking Work webinar series with master voice talent and trainer Bettye Zoller.
 
Presented by VoiceOverXtra - the voice-over industry's leading source for news, education and resources - the webinars are slated for the Monday evenings of:
  • Jan. 18: The Secrets of Narration & Audio Engineering 
  • Mar. 1: Your Winning Demo & Booking Work
Not only for beginners, the webinars will also help working pros expand their skills and knowledge about how to get work.
 
The two-part series is offered at $79.95 – a savings of $10 from attending each session individually ($44.95 each).
 
“These two webinars will teach you about audiobook techniques, recording long-form audio, where the jobs are, who is hiring newcomers, how to catch the ears of publishers, how to become a better narrator, and so much more,” says Zoller.
 
Registration is available now at http://bit.ly/NewAudBkWebinars.

LIVE Q&A
 
The webinars feature live interaction with Zoller – and all questions will be answered, no matter how long it takes.
 
The sessions will also be recorded and available for free download to folks who register for the live event. That’s handy for review – or in the event of missing the live session.
 
“A webinar is fun and easy to attend,” notes VoiceOverXtra’s Florian. “You just sign in by computer or phone, and then watch, listen and send us questions by text or 'raise your hand' to ask us verbally – all live!
 
“Bettye’s earlier webinar on the Business of VoiceOvers drew so many questions that we were chatting and learning for nearly two hours,” Florian adds.

Ms. Zoller,

I just have to comment on last night's webinar (Jan. 18). I had a great time - you are so fun to listen to, and I learned quite a bit from you.

I have been going over my notes both from the webinar and notes to myself to follow up on a few points. I can't wait for the next one on March 1. It is for me quite an opportunity to be able to take this type of training from someone so well known in the voice-over Industry. Thank you again for a most informative evening.
