It’s the weekend and that means another homework assignment. I picked Motel 6 because it can be cheeky so I put a little ‘attitude’ in there. I’m not Tom Bodell (for you youngsters, he was basically THE voice of Motel 6 for what seems like forever. This one was fun 🙂

Marco,
Nice resonant voice, great pacing and attitude ;-). A couple of observations. Breaths distract from the copy. The copy has a lot of S sounds in it, which can sound hissy on playback. Words like Six and Save can sound drawn out. Plosives can sound too loud even when not obviously popping. On the endings of words like hat or dotcom try not to swallow the consonant sound. Lately, I have been editing a lot of my own recordings and I have many of the same small distractions that I can usually clean up in post. I gave yours a once-over and have the file attached.
Keep up the great work.

Pmuller,
You seem to have some ambient sound like a hiss or a low buzz. If you can’t locate the source you can take it out with the noise reduction function in your software. Better to eliminate the sound up front if possible. I ran your file through Audacity and did a noise reduction and manually silenced a couple of spots. Play it and see the difference. Keep on truckin.

Hey Yall,
Hope everyone’s week is going well! I’m posting some narration spots for my next HW. The two are pretty varied in pitch and tone so any feedback on the performance/quality of either or both would be much much appreciated.
Thanks for listening!

Hey Max,
I really liked both reads. Especially the narration, your voice really lends itself to that style, in this case at least. You demonstrated good versatility with the two very different styles and both sounded great. My main observation is that both reads could flow a bit better. Both felt slightly stilted with pauses between phrases. Other than that, I’d say great job.Roman

Hi everyone,
This is my first post to the Feedback Forum.
I used these two reads in my first coaching session and would really appreciate your feedback.Thanks!

Hey Roman!
I wanna start off by saying I think you have an excellent vocal quality and sound, both really fit the spots you selected very well!
I’d say you could do a bit of work on pacing for both, but especially for the Home Depot. Mostly tightening the gaps a bit in between phrases and editing out breaths. I think you could also up the energy level and tone on the Ford one JUST A BIT to make it a bit more impactful. Other than that, I think you did an awesome job and they both really do sound great!
Hope this is helpful!

Just hoping to get some general feedback on some scripts I read. Feedback regarding (but not limited to) natural delivery would help. Thanks!

Random thoughts on making it sound more natural:
More casual on “choose dinner”; no break between “more” and “pre-portioned”; When saying “delivered to your door”, be thinking “Cool!”; I would have a higher pitch on “less mess” than on “less stress” – will provide more contrast to “no promises”…
“And who doesn’t love that” all runs together; Change your emphasis from “PLUS” to “free shipping” at end. Hope something here is helpful! -

First attempt at figuring out my home studio, first attempt at audacity, first time figuring out how to upload before a coaching… Did not go well. Sorry, Art!
