Episode 04: Medical Narration with Shelley Avellino
Show Notes

I'm particularly excited about today's guest, Shelley Avellino.  Not only is she a medical narration expert, but she's my voice over coach as well as the voice for my audio logo at the very end of every podcast!  We spend some time talking about one of the scariest genres in voice over (but it's not really that scary, I promise!).

Highlights:

*What is medical narration?
*Niche genres within medical narration
*Different audiences in medical narration
*What makes medical narration different than other eLearning genres (and it's not just the terminology!)
*How acting is a very big part of medical narration
*The medical fields that tend to be the most difficult to narrate
*Skills that a voice actor needs to be successful in medical narration
*Misconceptions
*How someone new to medical narration can get started
*Medical narration resources
* AI and the future of medical narration
...and more!
