  • 1.  How to Succeed.. voice over

    Posted 01-24-2017 16:35
    Does anyone know of a source to rent/ purchase the "Book Voice" voice overs for How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying?  I'd love the Walter Kronkite version but I'd be happy with something that sounds good that I don't have to try to record. Thanks

    We had a "favorite" teacher record the book voice. Everyone had a great time trying to figure out who it was!

    I did it myself. The kids (and the audience) got a big kick out of it. I also think having one of your administrators or popular teachers do it is also a great idea. Good luck. The show is a lot of fun. Best! GT

    Holly,

    We hired a professional voiceover actor to record our book voice.  I still have the recording.  If you are interested, I could send a snippet of it for you to hear.

    I actually staged an "office" on the little bumpout and cast a student as the author/voice. He was onstage the majority of the show. It challenged him to really push himself to create stage business and be engaging without being distracting.
