Book Your Consult KEY TAKEAWAYS Medical narration is a broad genre that includes various subgenres such as medical commercials, corporate scripts, anthem scripts, explainers, e-learning, mechanism of action and disease animations, ISI, and medical device. Understanding the structure, unique words, and context of each script is crucial in delivering an effective medical narration. Improv skills can be beneficial in narration, helping voice actors feel comfortable, be flexible, and get out of their heads. Having a medical background can be an advantage in medical narration, but it doesn't guarantee success and it isn't a requirement. Skills needed for medical narration include sounding intelligent, understanding complex scripts, and being able to interpret and deliver medical terminology accurately. When creating a medical narration demo, it's important to showcase range, accuracy, and the ability to handle different types of medical content. Medical narration continues to be a lucrative genre, as the demand for accurate and human-delivered medical information remains high.
