Colabnarration is six-step process that allows authors to create their own audiobooks with or without human recorded narration. The processes described herein are;1) Serialization of the text-based novel or book. This process creates a record for each paragraph of text in the book (text file) and also creates a proprietary file to be used within the software application.2) Creation of a character file. This process allows the author to create a list of characters and add all pertinent information required in the recording process and/or the virtualization process.3) Combining the serialized file with the character file creates the Snippet file, which is used in the Snippet Manager. In this process, the author can assign characters to every snippet (text block) which will be used in the following step.4) Generate audio files using 3rd party text-to-speech APIs. Each snippet (text block) is sent to a virtual voice API and is converted into an audio file.5) Once all the snippets have been converted to audio files this module concatenates all the files and creates the full audiobook.6) Share the project with a narrator. This process allows an author to assign characters to a specific narrator who will record just those assigned characters. Once an author has shared the project with a narrator, the project is sent to the narrator via an automated email message.展开▼
