Chapter three is going to be longer than chapter two. There are also many more characters and I’m trying to give them unique sounding voices, or at least different inflections. Audiobooks I’ve listened to in the past have prepared me for what I want to hear but not how to deliver. I knew voice acting would not be easy but it is rewarding, even if the result is not award-winning.
Another microphone was ordered with the intention of narration but switching microphones during the book would create a different sound. If the sound quality is better recording may start over, which would probably be a good idea in order to correct some of the mistakes in the first part.
Noise in the recording may be a problem and since I don’t want to create an entire recording studio it may simply become a part of the first try. To combat this ambient sound loops appropriate to the book’s setting may be added. For example, if the scene is taking place in a car a sound loop from a car could be added in the background. It would not be loud, almost indistinguishable but it may cover some of the noise.
To do:
Today’s word count: 0 - 0 = 0 words
Total word count: 27 240 + 60 228 + 83 897 = 171 365 words
