Hi Mary,
I really like the sound of your voice! Very relatable and credible. I think that for the Vanguard read, you might want to try speaking more from the point of view of the representative of that company, and also as that representative speaking to someone across the table from you or sitting next to you – it might change how you say things if you’re in that kind of setting. I also noticed glottal stops on the “o” words, like “our” and “on.”
I think perhaps the Westin read ended up being rushed because you were trying to make it flow! I do this too. You’ll be able to make it flow without affecting your pace, which should be a little slower (given the context of this piece), but not too slow, of course! It would be great to hear this one again but with the descriptive words accentuated.
Overall, great job. Looking forward to hearing more from you.

HI RYoung,
Although I liked the music choice, I think it could have been lower volume so that your voice doesn’t need to compete with it. I would suggest to be mindful of your delivery being too announcer-y. I think the overall read needs to settle down just a little, so that it sounds more natural while still sounding assured and credible–your voice is already clear and has gravitas, so that already helps you sound nice and authoritative. The company’s name was slightly rushed in my opinion, and it was strong on the “F” of “FTI” so it made me jump (I had headphones on!). I do enjoy your energy overall. Great job!

Greetings all!
This is my first post on the Feedback Forum! Doing my homework and would appreciate any feedback you might have on these 3 recordings. I’m working on my pacing, not leaving too many gaps between sentences, and an even flow. My home studio is a work in progress, so not too focused on the quality of the recording right now. That will be further down the road…
Many thanks for your input. I really appreciate your taking the time to listen.-

Hi Anne-Marie! Great work on these! Your voice is very soothing and easy to listen to. You sounded most at ease in the Dublin script which flowed the best from my perspective, so maybe you could play with a more relaxed, conversation read on the other two. And I know you’re still working on the home studio, but the audio quality sounds excellent to me!

Hello Fellow VO talent,
Thank you in advance for any feedback and observations you can provide!Atlanta Bread Company
When you think of Atlanta Bread Company, don’t just think ‘bread’. Think of an entire breakfast menu – fresh-baked pastries, hot breakfast sandwiches and specialty coffees. Think of our Cafe with savory sandwiches, daily soups and crisp salads. And don’t forget…we can cater your next special event or meeting! Atlanta Bread Company – more than just bread. -

Hi please help critic my take on edges script , Roses!
Roses prefer a sheltered , sunny spot and well drained soil; but otherwise , these paragons are surprisingly easy going and will suceed in most gardens or backyards . Infact shrub roses will flourish on quite light, even poor soils. It is important to give your roses a really good start. This means some digging. So whether you are planning to plant a single rose or a large bed, it is advisable to double dig so the subsoil is well broken up, especially if drainage is less than perfect.-
Hello mrtripo9! You have a very unique voice; I like the deepness and the gravitas quality. I think for this script, the delivery could have been more natural, and one of the ways you could make it more natural is to avoid any inflection patterns such as a sing-songy, up-and down pattern throughout. The emotion is nice and friendly, and you don’t have any major pauses, but you might want to consider bringing in a little bit of pause if it helps to group certain phrases together. Well done!

Hello! Looking for feedback on some narration scripts I’m playing around with for lessons. I was trying to focus on pacing (was I slow enough? Did I give the script time to breathe?) and articulating my “and”s and “to”s to make it sound crisper. Also played around with Audacity so as far as volume went so hopefully you guys can hear it well enough while simultaneously not having your ears blasted haha. Thanks in advance!
Ohio State Tour Video
“This is the historic Orton Hall.
Built in 1893, it’s like our very own Hogwarts.
It’s home to one of the quietest and oldest libraries on campus, and our own personal dinosaur.
As a Buckeye, you’ll grow to love the sound of Orton’s bells chiming across campus- a chronic 7 minutes off the mark of any clock. ….Relatable.”Clovis Bray AI Lore (from Destiny 2)
“Can we trust an artificial intelligence to make the moral decision? The engineers of Clovis Bray conceived a solution during the development of our Warmind project. By relegating ethical decision-making to a Black Box Morality system, the Warmind instruments its own proprietary virtue quantifiers incomprehensible to even its own creators. The Warmind determines morality on its own terms, and by design we are blind to that process in order to preserve its objectivity.”Air Purifier Tutorial
“To install a new capsule into your air purifier, switch the unit “off.” Then remove the new capsule from it’s protective wrapping. Open the capsule cap by turning in the direction opposite to that indicated by the arrow on the cap. Insert the capsule in the cap until the tabs catch the cap. Insert the complete cap into the air purifier. Turn the cap in the direction of the arrow. And then switch the unit back “on.” Your air purifier will now release a pleasant fragrance during operation. Either choose “repeat” to watch this demonstration again, or it will automatically close.”-
I really enjoyed all three of your reads! You have a warm voice and have a lot of variety and specificity in your delivery. For the Orton copy, the only feedback i’d say is it felt like there was just a bit too much air in between sentences. I’m sure if this was actually part of a guided tour that pause would be necessary but when just listening to it, it breaks the momentum and makes each sentence have to build energy from zero.
For the destiny script, I liked your read a lot! Make sure to really ask that question at the beginning, and maybe try exploring the danger of letting AI determine it’s own morality a little more? Or just get a bit more specific on your point of view.
For the capsule read, it felt as though each word was a bit clipped and detached from the rest of the sentences – i think focusing on the idea an meaning of the sentences as a whole will help to make the read sound a bit more natural while still keeping that professional explainer sound.

Hello Everyone!
Looking for some specific feedback on these uploads. I’m working on word clarification/diction of key words in the script, vocal inflection and pitch/tone. All feedback is of course always welcome. I am going through some of the uploads here and for the most part you all are sounding great. I’ll be dropping some feedback on some recent uploads myself.Many Thanks,
Ndehru-
Hi DAYLIGHTVO, I enjoyed both recordings….the Straight Talk script sounded more natural than the NASDAQ. For the NASDAQ, I kind of noticed a bit of a pattern where you would couple together two syllables or words together so that the first word is fast and doesn’t get noticed as much, while the second word is more emphasized. For example, “We-ALL,” “to-PLAY,” “and-FROM,” “a MARKet”. For the Straight Talk script, I liked the energy of it, but you might want to consider emphasizing the words with a little bit more smile, rather than with too much of a staccato/insistent tone. I look forward to hearing more from you!
