Pre-Production Services

Our producers are the heartbeat of each project. From the very beginning, they set the creative and logistical tone—serving as your main point of contact and guiding the audiobook through every stage of production.

They collaborate closely with you on casting and direction, recommend narrators that fit the voice of the story, coordinate VIP or narrator-led recordings, and manage all pronunciation and text prep. Once production begins, they stay hands-on—engaging with talent, conversing with our post team, and keeping everything on track.

Think of them as your dedicated partner, overseeing every detail and making sure your audiobook is delivered with clarity, care, and excellence.

Casting That Connects

Casting is our superpower! We take a thoughtful and intentional approach to matching the right voices to each story—whether it's a single narrator or a full ensemble cast. We believe representation matters, and we’re committed to inclusive casting that reflects the richness of the world we’re helping to bring to life.

Our team actively engages with the narrator community and we take pride in knowing not just the voices, but the people behind them. It’s this personal connection and industry insight that allows us to cast with both precision and heart—ensuring every performance feels authentic, resonant, and true to the text.

Curated Auditions & Samples

We begin by carefully reviewing the manuscript to understand its tone, pacing, and emotional texture. From there, we hand-select narrators to audition—or provide curated samples—that authentically capture the voice and spirit of the project. Every choice is intentional, ensuring the audio reflects the heart of the story from the very first word.

Pronunciation & Text Review

We conduct a thorough review of each manuscript to identify names, places, and specialized terms, then compile a detailed pronunciation guide. A word list is provided for author/editor approval to ensure accuracy and authenticity in every performance. To ensure consistency, the approved pronunciation list is shared across all departments so that the final program is just the way you want it!
