Hi everyone! These are for my latest training session and a couple of them are redos(with suggestions from feedback from my last posting)
Thanks again in advance!
Fish Boil
Even people who don’t like fish, have been known to like this fish. That’s why a fish boil is a must-do experience when you visit Door County. It all starts with a blazing bonfire under a
kettle of salted water. People circle around to warm themselves and take in the crisp smell. When the temperature is just right and the crackle of the fire is just loud enough, the boil master adds a basket of potatoes and onions to the kettle. A few crackles later, the mild whitefish steaks, fresh from Lake Michigan, are delicately lowered in. At just the right moment, kerosene is tossed into the fire, exciting the blaze and causing the water to boil over, dramatically carrying off the fish oil that has collected on top. The fish are pulled out and greeted with a generous drizzling of butter. Ladies and gentlemen, dinner is served.Texicon Family
“Hey there new employee, or should we say, new family member. As a member of the Texicon family, we want to formally introduce you to your new home, but not too formal because that’s just not our style. Now you’ve already got your new uniforms and met with our incredible CEO, or head of the family as we like to call him. Now it’s time for me to bring you up to speed on what your days are going to be filled in with. Make sure you grab some of the complimentary cake you have in front of you, we love cake here so you’re going to have to get used to that, and see what the rest of your time at the Texicon household has in store for you!”
Jerry Seinfeld
The move to New York meant returning to his roots for Seinfeld, who was born April 29, 1954, in Brooklyn and raised in the Long Island town of Massapequa (which he has always joked was an old Indian name meaning “by the mall”). After graduating from Queens College, Seinfeld appeared at New York comedy spots while supporting himself with odd jobs, including selling lightbulbs over the phone and waiting tables at Brew and Burger. As his act grew more polished, he honed the wry observational style that was to become his trademark.
Educational Explainer Video Intro Only – Real Estate
Would you like to buy a house?
Maybe it’s your first house, or even your 2nd and you just think that MAYBE you didn’t think hard enough about the last one.
Listen, I love Real Estate. And in most cases, even a bad deal can work to your advantage in the very long run.
But there are dumb things that people do without realizing it when they buy a house.
Humor me for a short story before we get into the meat of this video. -
Hello everyone, here are this weeks installments of my homework. I appreciate all your time and comments.
-
Marco: you’re clearly a pro: both were excellent – conversational, natural…sounds like you’re talking to a friend, but has the crispness of a professional. Nice tone and control of your instrument. “NASDAQ” had a sense of authority to it.
awesome work!

hi Nik!
very cool you shared multiple takes – always good to see (or hear), side-by-side, your adjustments. clear, crisp articulation and great pacing. I do get some hesitation in the delivery..maybe that’s not the right word, but I feel there was the start of some power, but faded a little.overall, very nicely done.

Hi Nik,
I think you have a very pleasing and clear voice. So aside from the reverb in the recordings (which I’m sure you will fix as time goes on with proper treatments), your reads were good. I would suggest when reading a list of things like the “Make them, share them, store them, invent” part, try to give different inflections for each part. Otherwise it sounds pretty monotone throughout. Also, I couldn’t really make out the last word ‘invent’ which may be due to the reverb.

Hi everyone!
Would love your feedback on the below reads for me and my Coach to review for homework. Please be brutally honest: we’re working on specific areas for improvement..I won’t mention them here, so as not to bias you, Lol!
Thanks so much for your help!

A beautiful and clear voice! I could certainly see you voicing narrations such as the Niagara Falls recording. There were some plosives in both reads. Not many but a few. I love the ‘smirking’ tone of “See you later alligator” – that came through loud and clear. Great job!

Hi there…loved the reads – especially the very poetic feel the Niagra Falls one had.
My only comment would be that the Lubriderm one sounded a bit rushed at times.
Also for some reason, the word “rises” in Niagra sounded like “rices.”
Other than that, brilliant work! -

Good Evening.
I’ve got a couple of readings as homework, per my Instructor.
Feedback would be most appreciated. I’m trying to make sure I’m leaving the impression of talking to someone, and also making sure that my words are being pronounced clearly.
Thank you for your time.

Hello – I thought that your reads were conversational and sounded like you were speaking with a friend. I would just note that the recordings were a bit choppy – in between phrases there was no room tone which made the reads sound a bit stilted.

Hi everyone I’m practicing before my demo prep in a week. Please take a listen. Im working on not pitching down and making sure the clients name is visible. Please let me know how I did. Thanks

Hi,
I thought the 7-11 script was great! Your timing is always so impeccable! I definitely felt like you pitched up when needed and could clearly hear the client’s name. That being said, when you got to the introducing 7-11 part, it felt like the story started to get lost a bit and it sounded more commercially and less conversational (if that makes sense), but you got that conversational tone right back in the last sentence. So, my one suggestion would be trying to figure out how to make the “sell” part of the script a bit more conversational. Otherwise, great work as always!
Wow! The tonal differences between these 2 scripts were so great and just go to show your range! My two notes for the Carnation script have to do with the line of ‘packed with protein…’: 1) enunciation because it felt like the words started to get a little muddled (specifically the word ‘nourish’) and it took me out of the script for a second and 2) focus on the whole sentence as a whole and the thought it’s trying to get across instead of the individual words themselves. Overall, I thought this was a really fantastic read and again, I could clearly hear the client’s name! Keep up the great work 🙂
