Voice Design
Give every character a voice.
A warm narrator guides the listener, Alice’s curiosity moves the dialogue forward, and the Cheshire Cat brings mischief to each answer. Give narration and characters distinct voices that draw listeners into the story.
The challenge
- Similar voices blur the line between narration and dialogue.
- Casting by age alone misses the story’s character and tone.
- Changing voices between chapters breaks the sense of familiarity.
With BreezeBlue
- Define a cast through vocal texture and storytelling rhythm.
- Audition one story line with each of three voices.
- Save the cast for the chapters that follow.
Choose a character
The voice
A warm, rounded storyteller’s voice in the middle register, with a slight husky texture and clear articulation. As light appears in the little woodland door, an easy, flowing pace draws the listener into an intimate telling.
As night fell, a little door among the trees glowed with warm light.
