How did you prepare to narrate THE FOUNTAINS OF SILENCE?
First of all I read the book to understand the tone of the whole story and what those characters are like from beginning to end. There are many different characters in this story and some of them have different nationalities & speak with very different accents (and even languages!) so I first created a different voice for each one of them and recorded it on my phone so that I could go back to it whenever needed. I then discussed these with the wonderful Audiobook director, Ali Muirden, and once we were clear about that, we got started!
The Fountains of Silence is actually my first ever Audiobook! I've been working in the voice over industry for over 5 years and have 250+ credits doing commercial, corporate, documentary, video game & animation but I had never done an audiobook until this one came along and I'm very grateful for it. It was a lot of work but a lot of fun as well!
