Many audiobook narrators self-direct; this session will give an overview of how to take the instincts you already use in the booth and turn them into the skills to direct another actor.

Whether you’re sharpening your own self-direction, curious about trying the director’s chair, or ready to add directing to your income streams, you’ll leave with practical tools you can use on your next project.

We’ll discuss:
* What goes into directing an audiobook, especially voiced by first-time author/narrator.
* What it takes to successfully lead remote sessions and manage communications.
* How to balance guiding the creative, the technical, and the emotional aspects of audiobooks.
* How to partner with producers to successfully shepherd an audiobook project through the recording process
