Writing Effective eLearning Voiceover Scripts
You can write step-by-step instructions like a pro, but now you have been asked to create voice-over narratives for e-Learning scripts. Suddenly you must break out of the concise and factual focus of instructional writing and create text that engages and motivates the learner.
In this interactive half-day class you will learn to define the appropriate voice and tone for a narrative text and take specific steps to create the engaging and personable writing style that voice-over narratives require.
During the class you will
- Define your audience.
- Establish the appropriate voice, tone, and vocabulary for that audience.
- Learn the specific verbal techniques that create your intended voice and tone.
- Practice using appropriate sentence lengths and structures.
- Discuss how to skate the fine line between engaging and cheesy.
- Learn three specific writing styles that will directly engage the learner.
- Use realistic scenarios to contextualize the onscreen lesson.
