How Audiobook Narration Thrives Across Every Genre

By Austen Moret. Published on: February 10, 2026

Audiobook narration has moved far beyond the image of a single voice reading text in a neutral tone. Today, it spans an extraordinary range of genres, styles, and performance demands.

How Character Voice Acting Changes Across Film, Television, and Games

By Austen Moret. Published on: February 8, 2026

Character voice acting is often discussed as a single discipline, but in practice it operates very differently depending on the medium.

This year’s SOVAS Animation and Character nominations […]

The Casting-Friendly Voice Actor: What Gets You Called Back

By Austen Moret. Published on: February 2, 2026

New voice actors often picture casting as a simple pass or fail moment. You send an audition, someone likes it, you book. Real casting is closer to building trust over time. Casting teams are listening for performance, yes, but they are also listening for signs you will be easy to direct, consistent across sessions, and […]

The Best Mobile Microphones Defining Modern Voiceover Workflows in 2026

By Austen Moret. Published on: January 22, 2026

Voiceover work in 2026 looks very different from the studio-bound model that once defined the profession.

As a result, microphones designed for mobility are no longer seen as backup tools. They […]

The Jet2 Voiceover Moment During London’s New Year’s Eve Fireworks

By Austen Moret. Published on: January 2, 2026

London’s New Year’s Eve fireworks are usually defined by music, visuals, and a carefully timed broadcast designed to feel celebratory and unifying.

Why Museum Audio Description Is One of the Most Demanding Voiceover Disciplines

By Austen Moret. Published on: December 19, 2025

For many museum visitors, audio description operates quietly in the background. For blind and low-vision visitors, it is the experience. In galleries, memorial halls, and cultural institutions, the voice does not supplement what is seen. It replaces it. That responsibility places museum audio description among the most exacting forms of voiceover work, requiring a level […]
