Hey, everyone. I used to post a lot of recordings before this website had been revamped. So this will be my first recording in three years. I found a copy on this website. I basically tried to memorize the script to see if it would make it sound more authentic. The copy seemed eerie to me so I went for a darker take.
In this world, there is real evil.
In the darkest shadows and in the most ordinary places.
These are the true stories of the innocent and the unimaginable.
Between the things we see and the things we fear, there are doors.
When they are opened,
Nightmares become reality.-
I liked the tone of your voice and how you delivered it. However, one slight mistake you made was that you said “imaginable”, rather than “unimaginable”. Maybe you could also try highlighting some more key words, like doors. Great job overall.

Hi everyone! Would love your feedback on these two samples. Specifically, how was my pace and conversational tone? Any feedback is appreciated!

Hey everyone! Just uploaded a couple of practice reads. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Great voice. Some mouth noises at the start of breathes to watch out for. At :12, and I think :20 for example. Maybe slow down just a tad to make it more conversational.

Hi cammons01! The American Airlines read started off great! It sounded welcoming and comfortable. The very, very end sounded rushed.
When you’re reading a list (for example, “your flight, your destination AND the equipment…”), it’s been suggested to me to not exaggerate the “and” so as not to draw too much attention to it and rather focus on the other words in the list. You can also vary the tone of your voice for each word in the list. This is feedback I’ve received and am working on this myself. I hope that helps!

Reposting my latest with a smaller file size.
1.) When I was experiencing depression, I couldn’t get out of bed or focus on anything. My goals and dreams drifted away. I got my life back with the help of a support group of people who had been where I was. They helped me see that my life wasn’t limited. Visit support-helps-dot-org to learn more. We’ve been there. We can help.

Hello Forum!
Here are a couple reads, I’ve been working on warm/intimate/dry/raspy reads.
Thanks!

2.) Bose home theater systems customize their sound to fit your room. Choosing anything less just doesn’t make sense.
BOSE … better sound through research. -
Hi Everyone, I’m uploading two commercial pieces. I chose them because I like the products. Although I’m not sure I came off very natural in them. Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you!

Good Evening!
Working on yet another recording. I have a feeling I’ve done this one already, but… I like DQ, and my birthday’s next week, so hey, lol.
I don’t have a specific focus tonight, other than the usual- beginning/middle/end, conversational feeling (I kinda have the feeling that the ending doesn’t mesh well with this, but merely my opinion), etc.
Feedback and criticisms of any kind are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi Gill! I agree with Lance in that I didn’t hear any odd or out of place pauses – great job! I loved the overall tone of Clorox – informative, playful and convinces me to want to buy some Clorox wipes!
I also echo Lance’s comment about the Harvey read. I think you can add some changes in your tone to give it a more playful vibe (like the Clorox read). Great work!
-
Hi Gill – wonderful friendly and conversational reads – but I am not sure what you mean about pauses . . .do you mean in the editing? Otherwise, pauses all seemed natural and not out of place. I think the Harvey spot might have benefited from a little more attitude, especially with the line “now if only he could work the microwave” – Keep up the good work. Lance

Hello everyone,
Here are two samples for feedback. I’m specifically concerned about sound quality and pacing, but I’d be appreciative of any feedback on any aspect of the samples. Thanks! 🙂
-
HOP – Hi. I thought you started off well but then got choppy towards the middle. You started to sound more robotic and less conversational. After another listen, I heard emotion in the beginning then you lost it around “This unique”. You seemed to drag out read and reading. Overall I really like your voice. Perfect for the genre.

Hello smarlowe, my feedback for your reads is below:
1. Hooked on Phonics – The pacing here was pretty good and the sound quality was clear as well. The only feedback on this one I have is editing out the breaths such as the part, “a few times a week.” Also, at the end when you said “read,” I would emphasize it, but stress it less (seems like you dragged it out a bit). Otherwise, I liked this read!
2. Anxiety PSA – I wasn’t clear what angle you were going for, but I got the impression this was an ominous internal conversation. Is this one supposed to be narration or a commercial? Sorry, I might be missing something here.
