Writing Effective eLearning Voiceover Scripts

Want to speak to us about this class or get more information? Chat with an IconLogic rep now by clicking the image above. Reps are typically available Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Eastern.

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

  • Practice writing narratives with our planned examples, or, if you choose, work with an actual project of your own

Choose between practicing with our planned examples, or working with an actual project of your own.

Class Price: $120 per person.
