      I am not sure that this is your real voice… I’m sure listeners would spot a phoney and be turned off. You brought the script to life very well, but you have to use your own voice in voice acting, especially for commercials. You’re offering production companies a service only you can provide.

        Tim,

        That is my own voice. That is a Character type accent. Through the years I have worked with a many a Cajuns and can do a decent one. I ran across that script in the library. I disagree about just using your own natural voice for acting. I think it shows a range in what you can do. thanks

    Hi–here are two demos for commercial spots using Edge scripts I had for homework. Any feedback is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I’m working on some “character” demos and would appreciate feedback from the group. The demos are “Cranky old lady”, supposed to be humorous, and “The Evil Queen”, hopefully not humorous.
    Thanks for comments.

      I love both of your takes. Neither sound too over-the-top and I could easily see them coming from other characters. Well done.

    — Tractor Supply Co. : added the Company Tagline because this came from a video which I’m sure had plenty of logo images.

      Hello Touzet,
      I love both your spots. The rich, deep tones of your voice and the “heartland” delivery make each very believable. They feel like they come straight from the heart. I can easily hear your voice narrating a Clydesdale/Budweiser commercial.

      Good job,
      Elizabeth

    Take 2. I’ve converted the file format to mp3. These scripts are taken from the script library for practice. Thanks for listening 🙂

    Hi Everyone! I’m brand new to this and working on homework for narration. I just recorded these on my phone for now while I’m still learning my DAW. All feedback welcome 🙂
    Thanks in advance!

    Runza Restaurant
    Here at Runza, many people ask us why we don’t serve breakfast. Our answer is simple, because we’re busy making lunch. We’re up with the roosters each morning to start hand slicing onion rings and making Runza sandwiches. And we wouldn’t have time for that if we had to spend our mornings figuring out how to inject syrup into bread. Seriously, people actually do that, but not us, because we don’t do everything. We do our thing. Runza, the difference is real.

      Very cool style. There’s something kind of strange with the recording though. Might be caused by excessive noise reduction application or some other processing.

      Sounds great! I felt like I was listening to an add on the radio. I like the pacing you had, and there was just one spot that I felt like the words were maybe run together just a bit. It was at “Runza sandwiches”. That z sound into the s is probably a little tricky. Well done 🙂

    Intended audience for this one would be pre-k and maybe it’s a preview for a kids e-learning course. Would love some kind criticism!

      I really liked the direction you took this! I could tell you were talking to a kid, but with excitement that wasn’t over the top or talking down to them. Good clear words. Well done 🙂

      What a rich, personable sound you have! I thought you started strong with that nice, relatable inflection. The slightly more dramatic changes in pitch after about 0:06 secs makes it feel a little less like a “real” conversation. You could try some visual exercises to really get into where you are, exactly who you’re talking to, and what kind of response you’re trying to get from them. That helps me a LOT. You have a great sound and I hope we continue to hear more from you!
