Bring Your Book to Life with Personalized Audiobook Production
Why Authors Love Our Service:
- Dedicated Human Support: No automated algorithms. You work with real, live production experts from start to finish.
- Global Distribution Power: Through our strategic partnership with Blackstone Audio, your book goes far beyond Amazon, Audible, and iTunes to reach the widest possible global audience.
We will discuss your narrator preferences and offer you a number of them to select from. You can bring your own! Silverton Agency works with a number of professional narrators, including those with SAG/AFTRA affiliation.
Point of View (POV) & Narration Styles
Is your book written in a single or multiple Point of View (POV)? If your book features two or more POV, you can choose between two distinct narration styles:
- Dual Narration: Each narrator performs an entire section or chapter individually, voicing all characters within those specific scenes.
- Duet Narration: Two (or more) narrators work together throughout the entire book, with the male and female voice actors performing their respective characters' lines line-by-line.
To help us match your manuscript with the ideal voice talent, we would need some details about your story's setting and cast:
- Accents & Dialects: Do any of your primary or secondary characters speak with a specific accent or regional dialect?
- Story Setting & Locale: Where and in what time period does your story take place? This helps us source narrators who naturally fit the geographical and cultural tone.
- Character Demographics: What are the approximate ages of your main characters? This ensures the narrator's vocal age range sounds authentic to the roles.
- Vocal Specifics: Are there any other unique traits or performance notes (e.g., a gruff demeanor, a high-energy delivery, or specific character pacing) that could assist us in selecting the perfect voice?
Our Premium Audiobook Production:
- Custom Narrator Casting
Browse our narrator pages to listen to voice samples. (We are currently expanding and updating our roster pages!) If you need guidance, our team will help you find the perfect match and arrange for narrators to record a custom sample directly from your manuscript. - All-Inclusive Pricing
We provide clear, fixed quotes based on your book's total word count. Your all-inclusive rate handles everything from start to finish: narrator fees, professional editing, mastering, and distribution. - Collaborative Quality Control
You are involved at every critical milestone. You will approve a 10 to 15-minute production sample to lock in accents and style before we record the full book. Once finished, we proof the audio against the text and send it to you for final sign-off. - Unmatched Global Distribution
Maximize your exposure across Audible, Amazon, iTunes, Downpour.com, Google Play, and global markets.
Your audiobook will be made available on Overdrive.com and actively marketed to over 800 libraries that maintain standing purchasing orders with our distribution network.
- CDs & MP3s: Distributed on Amazon, Downpour, and eBay
- Author Merchandise: Authors may order discounted CD copies of your audiobook to use as promotional items at book signings and giveaways.
Whether you just need a flawlessly mastered audio file or full-scale production which includes global distribution, we tailor our services to fit your needs.
