SOLD OUT – Audio Description Narration Workshop 2020 March

This workshop has sold out! We will have more coming.

Most details of Audio Description narration, and how to do it, can be shrouded in isolation. There are all kinds of vendors who have different approaches. When the opportunities come, what skills do you bring to the table? Roy has hundreds of big budget features and high profile series in this area of Audio Description narration, including Picard, Spider-Man, NCIS, BOSCH, and others.

Through practice with scripts to picture, you develop your own unique practice, and perfect your own take, on delivering that tight wire act of emotional and timing nuance. This is a judgement-free zone: we focus on what works, and what doesn’t work.

This is a 4 week workshop in the North Hollywood area, 7pm to 10pm, Thursdays in March. We will have blind audiences giving feedback.

email roy@roysamuelson.com with any questions or to reserve your spot.

(Due to the commitments of studio and other students, we are unable to grant any refunds for cancellations.)

Limited to 9 participants. Introductory offer of $295 is limited to the first 5 paid-in-full attendees. A portion of the profits will go to the Audio Description Project.

🧵I’m coming back to social media soon. And I felt I had to jump in with a thought that’s kept me smiling.
