Description
This course is a complete guide to get better at recording speech, dialog and voice overs at home without spending a fortune. It’s easy for anyone to start recording at home with modern affordable equipment - but there is a huge problem. Information is spread all over the internet and it’s hard to find good advice. There is a lack of awareness of the importance of high quality audio.
The internet is full of podcasts, videos and courses with awful sound quality. The speech is hard to understand and irritating to the ear. In some cases it’s simply unintelligible!
Voice overs are often understandable but sound distant, thin or odd. This has a proven negative effect on the perception of your work. To give that premium feel, you need high quality voice recordings.
By following the simple steps outlined in this course, you will quickly and easily improve your podcast, audiobook, voice overs or videos. In fact, anything that includes spoken word or dialog can be improved without difficulty.
By applying the skills you’ll learn in this course, you will be able to impress your current fans, attract new customers, and increase sales, downloads or streams.
