Voice Acting & Visual Impairment

Voice Acting & Visual Impairment

Author: UberDuo Podcast Network August 12, 2015 Duration: 28:44
The fantastic Tanja Milojevic joins us for a chat about voice acting, visual impairment, and more. Tanja has her own Audio Drama series, LightningBolt Theater of the Mind, and has also starred in countless other Audio Dramas, including our all time favourite show Edict Zero FIS.

During the conversation, Tanja talks about her home recording setup, and how she deals with external noise, as well as having some tips for aspiring voice actors. She also offers some great insights into how to bring your characters to life when behind the microphone.

For anyone who has ever been captivated by a story told only through sound and wondered, "How do they do that?"-this is for you. The Audio Drama Production Podcast, from the UberDuo Podcast Network, is a deep, practical dive into the craft of building worlds with audio. It moves beyond simple advice to explore the entire process of bringing fictional narratives to life in your ears. Each episode tackles the specific, often unspoken challenges of writing for the ear, directing voice actors, designing immersive soundscapes, and weaving it all together in the edit. You'll hear about the technical choices behind convincing ambiance and the narrative techniques that make characters feel present in the room. Whether you're a writer curious about scripting without visuals, a producer figuring out remote recording sessions, or a creator wondering how to distribute your finished work, this podcast serves as a constant workshop. It’s a resource for making any form of audio fiction-call it a radio play, an audio drama, or a fiction podcast-focusing on the tangible skills and creative problem-solving required from initial idea to final master. The discussions are grounded in real production experience, offering a clear path through the complexities of this unique storytelling medium.
