ParticipantHey everyone. It’s been awhile since I’ve been on this forum, but I am ready to continue my plan of uploading two recordings as much as I can. I just recorded a new narration audition and a commercial script and I would appreciate any feedback on my performance and the recording setup. Thanks for your advice.
IDI Distributors (Do I sound comfortable, relatable, and friendly, charismatic in any way? That was the tone they were hoping for)
Welcome to IDI Distributors, America’s Insulation Source. Since 1979, we’ve helped thousands of insulation contractors across the country keep their businesses running strong. From insulation materials to accessories, IDI is the one-stop shop for all leading brands.Wintergreen Resort (My goal for this was to sound Excited, inviting, and confident)
If you‘re in the dark about where to ski, let us shed some light on the subject. High in Virginia‘s Blue Ridge Mountains, discover what‘s been called the Mid-Atlantic‘s finest overall ski experience. Wintergreen offers 10 slopes, five lifts, and an extensive snow-making system. Not to mention luxurious accommodations, an indoor spa, and a nationally recognized children‘s program. For more information, call 1-800-ski-green. That‘s 1-800-skigreen. Wintergreen and Virginia … the perfect combination!Attachments:

ParticipantHey Tim! Great seeing you on forums again!
I loved your IDI read. was very clean. There was a word that stuck out to me about 4 seconds in “America’s insulation source” the word source almost sounds like your saying it like soursa with a soft a to finish. Really not big as it could be part natural accent coming out or just me lol. But love the read overall.
Wintergreen: Anther great read. near the end sounds a bit pushed with breath. There is also a lot of information here. Being honest I had to listen 2-3 times just to gather all the information. I would maybe suggest finding the key words in the script and make sure to bring those key words out a little more to help the listener following along. Great work my friend!

ParticipantHi Mel82, I feel when I listen to your narrations they are more audio book style narrations. You may be thinking into the script text a little bit to much. Try pulling back and reading as though your having a conversation. You may find that you don’t punch some words to hard and that it will flow more smooth. Hope this helps. Great first recording! Keep it up!

ParticipantGrabbed a Script from the library for some practice. This is just a raw file I did no editing to it. Would still love your feedback. Thanks!
Script:
American Express
Do you know me? Probably not. In my business, recognition is always important, but when I’m buying goods online I prefer a little privacy. With Private Payments from American Express, I get the security of a unique number created for each business transaction I make. Because my private information is my business, and American Express keeps it that way.Attachments:

Sorry it got posted twice. Thank you!

ParticipantHello!
Disney Princess Pop-Up Games: I think you did a pretty good job here! Your voice has a dreamlike, fairytale-narrator quality that definitely matches well with the subject. This could just be me however, but I feel that your pacing is a little slow? On one hand I feel it’s intentional, but on another I do feel that there were times where I thought some lines should definitely pick up a little speed.
Sesame Place Theme Park: A great job here! You’ve got great energy, and I can totally understand the elevations you’ve given to words in your script. Near-impeccable delivery. A minor nitpick, but I think I would’ve said ‘Oscar’s Wacky Taxi(TM)’ a bit differently in an attempt to offset between that and ‘New in 2018… most exciting roller coaster ever,’ or vice versa. But still, great work!

ParticipantHad a technical issue with my last post and now can’t find the post, Try Number 2. I’m doing some more homework and with the advice from my homework on August 23rd, I believe I’ve fixed some previous issues. I hope this sound more conversational and that I sound more relatable to the text. I also changed the sound and hope that it improved as well.
Tennessee Whiskey

Tennessee Whiskey.Ben & Jerry’s Freezer Fairies (for one reader)
Hey, it’s me. The Ben & Jerry’s Freezer Fairy. That’s what I said. Ben & Jerry’s Freezer Fairy. You know some people don’t believe in Freezer Fairies. Doesn’t bother me. I know I’m here.So listen up. Here’s how it works. Do something good out there in the world and bang. I stick a pint or two of Ben & Jerry’s in your freezer when no one is looking.
Now, do something bad and boom! No Ben & Jerry’s. Plus I stick something really weird in your freezer like frozen clams.
Hey! I ain’t no lightweight fairy that tap dances on moonbeams and stuff.
I work for a living. I got bills to pay.
Just like you guys.
So where was I?
Let’s review. Do something good….
I sneak some Ben & Jerry’s into your freezer. Maybe some Cherry Garcia.
Or some Chunky Monkey. But do something bad….
And no Ben & Jerry’s in YOUR freezer!
Plus I mess with your head a little bit.
OK, till next time. I wish you a freezer full of love and surprises.
Be good out there.
OR ELSE!Attachments:
