This one is a political spot. Its not my worldview; just challenging myself. Any feedback would be welcome.

Good read. I suggest maybe a little more passion or energy could be heard for the candidate and for the state Kentucky and to really hit those money words: our Kentucky values….strong…fight..Rand Paul..destroy our liberty…spend too much

[burdahgirl]

Hi Jbach! I think it’s a good read, really clear and good pacing. I would suggest playing around with a little more pitch variance in there to keep it from being too stagnant? I hope that’s helpful!

[sarahtranchina]

Hey everyone! So I have had one of those days where I’ve tried to get some tracks down and everything is just… meh. You know what I mean? But as an exercise I know there will be days when you have to send in copy when you’re just not going to be clicking in like you normally would. So I’d love your feedback as if you DIDN’T know this disclaimer I’ve given you, and would also love to know if you’ve also had days like mine and if you have any great tips and tricks to “snap out of it!” Thanks so much 🙂

Great read. Seemed very believable and not overselling it.

[Robert Broussard]

Sarah, your read was good. The pace and tone was good. The energy at the end could have been a little higher, but all in all a good job.

[Robert Broussard]

Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks

Hi everyone!
I’m new to this and working on homework for narration. The first one is talking to kids. I’m still working on getting a studio set up, so this is just recorded on my phone for now. Any and all feedback welcome! Thanks for listening 🙂

Hey, Sherry! First of all I think you have a lovely voice; you sound super cheerful and confident. My one note would be that your phrasing had the tendency to be choppy in the first and third clips. Think of/practice with your copy as if you would tell this to a friend or loved one, and how there would be a more fluid line between the beginning and end of a thought or sentence and see how that feels. The second clip about Emilia Earhart I hear far less than the clip about recycling and about adrenaline. Awesome stuff!

[Sherry Newell]

Thank you so much for listening and giving feedback! I will definitely work on it.

[Robert Broussard]

Sherry,
I think you did a good job so far. It sounded good for being on your phone. Keep it up.

[Sherry Newell]

Thanks!

[Rob Morse]

This is a repeat of a script I uploaded and didn’t receive any comments on, which is feedback in itself.
Please let me know if this is better, and what I could do to improve.
Thanks!
Rob

Hey, Rob! I thought this was great! Great pacing, tone, and clear to understand. My only note is that you had a down inflection when you mentioned the brand name Waterpick, which didn’t quite give it the oompf that it needed there. Otherwise totally awesome!

[Official81]

Very nice! Clean and clear words, your studio sounds really nice and quiet no echos or reverb. And you did a wonderful job sounding conversational. Nice Job!

Hi,
I’m submitting another holiday “character” demo and asking for comments from the group. This is supposed to be humorous and involves Mrs. Claus talking about Santa and making a request of the children Santa visits.

Nice character, Not sure about gluten free cookies or almond milk for me, lol. Over all a good read. The pace and tone may could have varied a little but otherwise good work.

[sarahtranchina]

Great character work! Love the music clips used as well… really nicely edited. My only thought is that the pacing could be a tick faster throughout. Awesome!

[BrianWigginsVO]

Putting the finishing touches on the new booth I’m building (pictures soon!) and did my first sound test this morning with the first page of the next audiobook I’m contracted to narrate. Aside from the plosives and the sound of my phone vibrating, how’s the sound quality of the booth to your ears? (Pretty much ignore everything performance-related, this was just a quick read.)

Thanks!

Brian the sound was good, I could not find anything that stood out. The reading was good too!!

[sarahtranchina]

Sounds great, Brian! I don’t hear any issues either.

[Jbach]

I’m not hearing any issues. Sounds good to me.

[Official81]

Congratulations Brian! Your studio sounds great to me! You sound nice and clear, it doesn’t sound like your in an empty room or anything like that! It sounds great!

[Shmuel]

Trying to upload a file so you all can just click on it, just like everyone else. The file format is now MP3, and I added the ul tag:

Shmuel this is awesome. Clear recording, you nailed the copy. Fabulous!

[Shmuel]

Thank you, Sarah

[Official81]

You have an amazing voice! Blown away!

Thank you

This is a Spanish audition. Any feedback is welcome.

“La unidad de carga principal pesa 160 libras. El instalador debe asegurarse de que la pared y los enchufes puedan soportar ese peso antes de la instalación. Si encuentra que no puede soportar ese peso, el cliente debe considerar comprar un pedestal.

Para comenzar el montaje en la pared, taladre y golpee cuatro orificios e inserte el tapón o inserto para la fijación en la pared en las posiciones indicadas.”

I agree with Brian 100%. Fantastic quality recording and though I don’t speak Spanish I followed along with the text you provided and it was perfectly clear with excellent diction and pacing. Well done!

[Jbach]

Good tone. It is conversational but also with a touch of authority.

[BrianWigginsVO]

I can’t offer any feedback on the delivery in terms of performance (lo siento mucho, no hablo español) but the tone and diction were excellent, and it sounded like it was recorded in a professional space, so for what that’s worth…great job!

Hi Wes, sorry but the proximity to the mic is to close like a pa system sitting next to the speakers, ouch! Your voice is resonate and delivery is ok but not much emotion? Hope that helps.

[sarahtranchina]

Hey, Wes! Great work! You’re voice does have a lovely, deep and luxurious quality. I agree with Liliana about variety in pitch and you can also use emphasis of important descriptive words to help you with changing levels. Also I didn’t notice in the first two clips as much, but your third clip for Ford I could hear a lot of air and some plosive’s coming over your mic. Might have been that you had adjusted how you were sitting and were a tad closer to the mic than the first two so it was picking up more, or to do with any editing that was done. You’re awesome!

[Liliana Castelblanco]

Hi Wes, Your voice has a lovely deep quality and it is overall pleasant to listen to. In general, I could use a bit more enunciation of the words as well as some variety in pitch within each sentence. Sometimes it feels like it’s all at the same level so by varying the pitch a bit it would make the reads more engaging.

[Wes@1972]

Thank you for the feedback Liliana! That is something my coach has said, and I’ll continue to work on it!
