De: Thompson Howell

Narrado por: Thompson Howell

Of all the voice-over genres, movie-trailer narration is one of the most famous, yet also the most difficult to learn about. If you want to add trailers to your VO tool belt, this is your book. Thompson Howell, narrator of blockbuster movie trailers, shares his insider’s knowledge of this traditionally closed world. He’ll reveal the keys to booking a trailer and the steps needed to get there. Packed with insight you won’t get anywhere else, this book takes a practical approach to voicing trailers and includes example scripts and audio files to illustrate key concepts. Being a successful trailer narrator requires two things: outstanding performances and knowledge of the players, processes, and casting systems that make up the movie marketing machine.
