How To Make A Career As A Corporate Narrator

By David Peterson


Organizations and companies are always searching for talents to voice-over their materials. This is a full time engagement for many since there are emerging needs and the desire to produce new materials on regular basis. It makes a career as a corporate narrator a possibility. Since not everyone can take up the opportunity, here are tips that will enable your career to kickoff and blossom.

Work on language mastery. Organizations use different languages and require narrators who have mastered them. Since these materials are distributed far and wide, they should capture the best narration. Your intonations and pronunciation must be on point. These skills take time to master. Once you have polished them, you will have a chance during auditions.

Understand the products and culture of the company. It is not always about your language and pronunciation. You need to do the work with passion in order to put life to the narration. This requires a person who understands the products and culture of a company. This is why companies are selective on the voices they use. It feels as though you are narrating from the soul of an organization.

Companies are sensitive about their brands. They will not engage any talent that is likely to compromise their reputation. People begin to associate voices with products and brands. This means that a bad reputation will see companies declining to hire your talent. Once your reputation is damaged in the industry, you have no room to recover it.

Participate in auditions and trials whenever they are held. This is an opportunity to expose your talent and voice. It will capture the attention of scouts who will give you a job now or in future. Failure to attend auditions means that your voice will remain forever hidden. No one will know that you have an amazing voice until you are willing to take it out into the public.

Distribute samples of your work to recruiting agencies and organizations that would be interested in your talent. You must always have the audios prepared as opposed to recording them in a hurry whenever they are required. You learn of some projects or auditions with a short deadline and have no opportunity to go to the studio. With a ready audio, you just present it and avoid missing the opportunity.

Keep your voice in perfect shape. Since you will be narrating, the voice becomes your tool of trade. Unless it is in good shape, you cannot get the opportunities. Any through infection or disease should be treated with urgency. Failure to act on time will expose you to vocal cord damage, a scenario that would herald your end. Take a lot of water, eat the right foods and avoid consuming food or drinks that can affect your voice. Shouting or activities that would affect vocal production should also be avoided.

It takes an outgoing and persistent talent to succeed as a voice talent. Develop a distinct voice that is easy to manipulate whenever the need arises. Take every opportunity available to showcase your talent and capture the attention of scouts. Protect your voice like you would to the most valuable asset.
