    Hi everyone,

    I have been working on these three commercial scripts and would very much welcome any and all feedback.

    Regards,

    John

    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.

    Nissan Pro Pilot Assist
    We’re about to show you an amazing demonstration…
    Every one of these Nissans has Pro Pilot Assist.
    Game changing tech that helps keep you centered in your lane, and adjusts your speed to help keep your distance.
    It can even help you stop, and start…without ever touching a pedal.
    Your highway commute is about to get easier.

    Club Med
    Imagine for a moment … nothing. No clocks. No ringing phone. No traffic jams. No radios. No newspapers. And no crowds. Now imagine a Club Med vacation. An island village where aqua seas brush dazzling white shores. Where lush green palms line wandering paths. A place where evenings are filled with entertainment and dancing. A Club Med vacation is like none other. Ask your travel agent.

      You have a very nice sophisticated quality to your voice so I think it works well with luxury product ads. I think your voice may be too “expensive” sounding for a Nissan ad, perhaps a luxury car brand like Mercedes Benz perhaps. Also because of the quality of your voice I don’t think you have to overdo it on line like “Where lush green palms line wandering paths.”

      Great work!

        Hi Caryn,

        Thank you very much for your encouraging feedback. I know exactly what you mean about overdoing lines. That particular line now seems really out of place.

        Best,

        John

      It sounds very crisp, and I love your accent; it immediately grabbed my attention! In the first sentence, your inflection is higher on the first clause, which makes it sound the most important. Maybe you could try that on the second portion (“so neither have we”) instead to highlight The American Cancer Society. I really like the informative quality of the second sentence–very PSA! Hope you enjoyed your wine. 🙂

      I liked the tone and it grabbed my attention. The room seemed to be quite bright with an echo that detracted from your performance. The pause between ‘loudest monkey’ and ‘the howler monkey’ seemed a bit too long. It made the two sections feel separated by a period rather than by a comma.

      Wow, you have a great voice and sound! I noticed upward inflection at the end of the phrases “Unique number” and “transaction I make” that I normally associate with asking a question.

      Cecelia I’m loving your voice and the fact that your audio sounds really good you can really focus on the performance. I did hear alot of sss sounds on the first one but it didn’t sound bad at all you can always use tools on your DAW to remove those. And your second recording was great a few glottal stops but you sound great.

      Hey C, what do I know….but…the first spot seems to have a lot of “sssss” with the words starting with s; #2 is just great in my book! My coach has me concentrating on slowing down the reads to help train my mouth to “do what my brain wants.” I swear I’ve already heard your voice on TV!!

    Trying to practice more with narration! All feedback welcome, thanks!

      Very smooth sounding voice, great job! It could sound a bit more conversational but it rocks.

      Hello your voice is very nice! I did hear library and librarian mispronounced, I have run into this a few times and now i make sure that I m pronouncing the words accordingly. A few glottal stops also but nothing that can’t be fixed quickly. Great Job overall.
