      Hello, I tried listening for flaws, could not hear any. I read was very conversational, diction was right on point. the tone and delivery would keep the audience interested in the topic. Great Job.

      I like the “smile” in your reads. You make both scripts sound like a fun experience, which is a good thing!

    Greetings fellow awesome voice actors, brand new to this so don’t be too critical. it took me a while to submit from nervousness but in any event here we go! I’m working on my pace, how was it? did I sound engaging? Was it conversational? how was my breathing?

    thank you 🙂

      I think the pacing is a little too fast, which made some of the words a little hard to hear. Lovely voice. Keep up the good work!

      Hi, your tone on the commercials is very warm, but the script was not conversational enough, it sounded like you are reading.

      Great voice! I believe you have the potential to do very well. The more you practice those scripts, the more natural and conversational you will become. Keep up the good work!

      Hey Keith, I thought the Campbells copy was right on point. Pacing was good, warm. It sounded lovely. My only suggestion would be to take the pause out after Introducing at the beginning of the piece.

      Hi, the All state read, the volume was low and it made it difficult to understand some of the words, The Boarding pass volume waa better and was able to hear all of the words. The boarding pass matched what is heard when boarding at the airport.

      Hi Talia, the beginning of the Spotify read was chopped off. Maybe take a beat before starting. I really loved the end…conversational and loved the tone of your voice. The Philips read was really nice!

      Hey Talia, These both sound great! Great pace, clear diction, nice and conversational! My only suggestion would be for the Phillips commercial there is a pause at the beginning right after you say At Phillips. Maybe you could play with how the line would sound if you took out the pause. Great work! I have a Tilex commercial on here that I am working on my take 1 and take 2’s. Would love your feedback if you have a chance.

      Both reads were beautifully done! I feel like the Cheerios read had some long pauses but overall it was really nice to hear. I also forgot that there was also a berry cheerios version haha. The American cancer society read was really informative! You’re voice sits at a nice place for all your reads.

      Hi! Lovely voice! both commercials sounded strong with pacing, diction, delivery. My only suggestion, I would be careful of pauses after periods. I think maybe in the Cheerios commercial your pacing was lovely then a period would hit and a pause would occur.

        Hi, nice read, on both. On the American cancer, there were two words that were difficult to pick up “Ask” and the word before “habit” i could not recognize that word at all.

      Hi, great read, I love the tone and interpretation of the script. I would have to agree with the “D” at the end of cold, it does need some attention.

      Hi! I agree great read! Very conversational and easy going. I also agree with Michelle just gives those /d/s a little attention at the end of cold.

      Love your voice on this read! Very soothing. My only critique is a few times on the word “cold” I couldn’t hear the “d” come through. Nice pacing and overall great job!

    Hey Everyone! I am giving it another try with the take 1 and take 2. Going for conversational in both however my “who” changes. Do you hear a difference in the takes?

      Hi, I do hear a difference between the takes, and prefer the second one. It’s a much smoother read and sounds more conversational. Nice job!

    Hi Everyone, I am looking for feedback on two narration scripts. The first is a Real Estate Home Tour. I am attempting to sell a prospective buyer on this wonderful home. How do I sound? Am I convincing? How is my pace? Am I descriptive in my attempt to sell you! The second script is a narration piece about a badger family in Yellowstone Park. My visual is that I am narrating a documentary on Yellowstone Park. How do I sound? I would love some constructive criticism on this one. Thanks in advance.

      Hi, on the home tour narration, sometimes your volume goes down very low that the meaning is lost.
      On the Yellow stone narration, the read was really good and inviting.

      Hi! I really enjoyed the Yellowstone read. I thought the pacing was good. I found it warm and informational which felt right on point for the piece.
