Robert Petkoff Interview With StarTrekBookClub.com
This conversation is my first branch out from talking to Star Trek authors, this week I spoke to Robert Petkoff! He’s narrated over 30 Trek books and has done dozens upon dozens of audio books not related to Trek. You may notice his glorious mustache that he has in place for a role that he’s playing in a production of Moulin Rouge.
Our conversation starts with a talk about the work he does that’s outside of audio book narration, though he does mention that he just wrapped up his work on narrating Una McCormick’s upcoming book Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: Asylum. He talks about his “on the road” setup for when he’s doing duration with some good information for those of you that are audio nerds.
We talk about his process for narration, which includes some fun discussions on his he isn’t an impersonator, but that there are small changes that can be made for different characters that give a great indication about who’s saying what.
We have a discussion about how A.I. is super useful for current narrators, but has the capability to end the careers of upcoming narrators before they can even get started. Is there going to be a marketplace for human narrators when something like Amazon Kindle can do it automatically for us?
We also talk about narrating for TOS Kirk vs narrating for SNW Kirk.
Robert Petkoff can be found on his website, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
