ParticipantYes! I want to go on this journey with you. You sounded very conversational. You sound like you care about me. Very warm and inviting.

Participantnice! You had a nice down to earth kind of sound, and I liked that you varied your pace at the end.

ParticipantHi everyone! I would really appreciate your feedback on these samples. If you could please provide feedback on any/all of these items, that would be very helpful: my overall tone, cadence, pronunciations, pace and if my readings sound conversational. Hopefully this recording is glitch free. Thank you!!

ParticipantI appreciated the variation of your vocal pitch. That’s something I struggle with. I thought the overall tone was pretty natural, like someone I’d like to shoot the breeze with.

ParticipantGood it still sounds good, although I believe that hear a little studder in the middle, and should keep your words consistent and put more emotion into your read. other than that I think you did a pretty good job. Keep at it.

ParticipantHello Joyce, you have a great voice for commercials! As you continue training you’ll hone and sharpen the style of your voice; you sound amazing.
That said, I do agree that you want to sound more conversational. What I do is try to imagine who I would be sharing this with and keep that in mind as I deliver to make it sound more conversational. Also, you have some breaths at the beginning of each sentence and the ends that you’ll want to edit out to ensure the audio is cleaner.
Otherwise, keep working at it and you’ll do great!

ParticipantHi Joyce – your tone is so friendly and warm. To sound more conversational, perhaps think of someone you are telling this wonderful info to . . .and picture them and talk to them while you read the copy. I do this a lot – you could even have a lead-in (that you would edit out, of course) . . .perhaps you are talking to your daughter about her dry skin. “Sharon, your skin is so dry, have you heard about Dove?”

ParticipantHello All,
Just looking for some feedback on this practice read. Thanks! The script is below for reference.
2012 Extinction – 2
The Maya, an ancient South American culture, predicted that time would end in a violent apocalypse on December 21, 2012. They created an elaborate astronomical calendar called “The Long Count,” which stops abruptly in 2012. This date, which is also the winter equinox, coincides with an incredibly rare galactic alignment that happens once every 26,000 years. What did the Mayans think would happen when their calendar ended? And were they joined by other cultures–from different parts of the world and in different centuries–all pointing to 2012 as a calamitous end time?
The Hopi Indians and Eastern Hindu share similar calendars, which are remarkably synchronous. One counter-culture mystic even uses an Ancient Chinese philosophy to unlock the key to a 2012 prophecy. Nostradamus himself suggests the world is headed toward a coming cataclysm. What can we do to head the warning of the Mayan apocalypse?

ParticipantI have uploaded sample of scientific explainer narration – I found it tough to be conversational with this material, swaying toward instructional. What do you think? And I can hear the mouth clicks – was not hydrated enough! Thanks, Lance

ParticipantHi Joyce – I’m sorry to say that while your voice does sound really good, the amount of glitches in the recording made it kind of unlistenable. I’m sure that’s not your fault, but judging from the feedback I’m seeing you get from someone else on a different recording, it seems you must have some kind of issue with your audio.

ParticipantHi
These were good reads overall
Allstate: The pace could be slower in the middle to give more essences to the script it sounds raced. There’s a lot of “Your” in this read which could benefit from variations.
Sesame Place: Pace is good, this read could have more energy when describing the theme park. Be mindful of your diction with “life and taxi.”
Hope this helps!

ParticipantYou have a really great voice, and the way that you did the Macys take, sounded colorful and singing a bit. As for the Dove one I think it was a technical error with that one on, during which had some glitches. I think it was because of the recording issue and not you, because I think you were perfect in every way with Macys and I am sure it’s the same thing with dove if that error where fixed. Just keep up the good work.
