This is my first project and I’m untrained. One day I need to get vocal lessons as well.
I need some feedback as to what I can improve on to make better music and sing better in the near future.
I also want to better my vocal technique
A practice sample for narration. Welcome message of American Airlines (taken from the library here). Your feedback is requested, especially since I am recording in a new environment. Thanks !
Good pacing overall. I like your voice for this genre, especially your lower tones. Clean up annunciation on words beginning with “pr-” like “presentation.” I think you’re doing well with ups and downs in pitch and you do it at the right places like the line “… aircraft on which you are flying.” Keep up the good work!

Hey Everybody, Looking for feedback – help with this read. Thanks for listening and your feedback.
Advil
Muscle aches? Nothing is proven more effective or longer lasting than Advil. For long-lasting relief of muscle aches, count on Advil. In a recent clinical study, Advil was found to work better than Tylenol in relieving the pain of sore muscles the day after exercise. No wonder doctors recommend Advil for muscle aches more than any other non-prescription brand. ADVIL — Advanced medicine for pain.
I felt like the pacing was a little bit too fast, it’s okay to slow down in some reads, I did enjoy hearing your voice and felt like it was right, would definitely watch out for when you’re saying “Advil”, make sure you’re enunciating correctly on the letter D which can sometimes get lost. Overall keep up the good work!
Thank you for listening and really appreciate your observation! That’s what helps us get better! I will definitely work on my pace and keep my ear out for my enunciation — It’s my lazy southern tongue! Thank you so much!
Hey Sherry,
Your voice is warm and friendly. Your performances were very nice. I could even hear your smile in the Crayola performance. Great work! I look forward to hearing more!
Hi Sherry! Nice reads! I especially like your flow on Exedrin and Crayola. Overall, clear tone and committed style on all. Six Flags could be even more WOW!. In Six Flags, watch out for your regional accent coming out on “adventure” as it sounded more like “ad-vin-ture.” On Crayola, you can soften the “r”s just a touch! Keep it up! Awesome job! /Greta
Hi folks! I’m seeking feedback on these 3 commercial reads – specifically style, tone, and believability – as well as audio quality and sound treatment of my studio. Testing out some new equipment! Should I do any minor effects like normalizing or condensing? Thanks as always for your time! /Greta
Hey Greta!
Very nice, soothing voice. Not fer nuttin’ but I think you can cut down on gaps and pauses. I do it too thinking it has some sort of dramatic effect……na.
Rock On!
Hi greta,
Only listened to the first one. Sound is good.
There was some silence at the beginning, and I thought something was wrong with the file or my computer.
It sounds like you are reading. Get some acting in to it. At the beginning, when you are in trouble, let’s hear your frustration.
And then it dawns on you that you have this solution. Let’s hear that light bulb “ding” the first time you say it, like you did way at the end (which was pretty good, btw).
You have a great voice, and wish you success!
Hi Tiana! Your pacing as a whole is great and nice to listen to. You have a very young and fresh sound. I would suggest watching the pacing of each individual word, making sure not to skip over words like “digitally.” Keep rockin’ it!
More feedback please! haha. I’m stuck with this read on a certain intonation and pace, and it doesn’t sound quite right to me, would love any ideas :).
Beautiful, natural tone. Your pacing is also great and relaxed which is spot on for this specific read. However, I noticed that you tend to fall off or fall a bit flat a bit towards the end of your sentences. Figure out what message needs to be communicated through the copy and which words, per sentence, highlight that message. For example, in your opening sentence, I would use a stronger infliction on “with opportunities to learn and thrive” since this is one of the key messages.
Also, in the second sentence, when you mention “with his skills and her talents,” I believe this would be a spot cutting to a scene of a boy and then a girl? – maybe try switching your tone to show the transition/comparison of subject.
This is my third attempt as the site is being weird, I’m posting but don’t see the post after the fact; apologies if it looks like I’m spamming.
Got some more homework. I’m working on slowing down and sounding more conversational which is tricky when you’re a fast talker. 😉
For comparison, I’m including a second recording of the last script at my ‘normal speed.’
