Justin Boots (Pecos Red)
Hi, I’m Pecos Red, for Justin Boots. Ever heard the term: “All Hat and no cattle”? That’s the problem with a lot of boots – I know. Sounds weird; but the thing of it is that most boots don’t do the same things your feet do, like expand – and – contract when you take a step.
Most boots are rigid, which is why your “dawgs commence to barkin’” and get all swole up, from yer boot-heels
a wanderin’….
At Justin Boots, our technology is a simple i.d. (idea) that comes right out of the way your foot works.
It’s how we build ever’ boot we make.
So’s it expands – and flexes the way your foot does when it’s out riding the range, or just boot-scootin’ out at Billy Bob’s.
For Justin Boots, I’m Pecos Red, remindin’ ya:
Justin Boots Quality – It’s a DANG good thing.
– And, never kick a cow chip on a hot day!Attachments:

ParticipantAfter falling down a tutorial fx rabbit hole… I’m back with my voice, compression and a little music… any thoughts welcome audio quality, delivery etc… esp the pause at “it is, for the moment”. Too William shatner-ish???
Welcome to the planet earth. A place of blue nitrogen skies, oceans of liquid water, cool forests, soft meadows; A world positively rippling with life. From the cosmic perspective, it is, for the moment, unique. The only world on which we know with certainty that the matter of the cosmos has become alive, and aware. There must be many such worlds scattered through space, but our search for them begins here, with the accumulated wisdom of the men and women of our species, acquired at great cost, over a million years.

ParticipantGreat voice, I’m sure you’ve heard that one before! The only thing I would do is slow down and lower the music slightly, nice work on this!

Tiffany Desrosiers
ParticipantWow what a soothing voice! I loved it! I think the music was a bit loud kind of overpowering you… not a lot. I agree with a few other replies that a little less pausing would give your read more “smoothness”, but I disagree that it should be conversational… I like how you “presented” it!
Awesome job!

ParticipantYou have a great voice for this type of narration. Nice articulation and changes in tone and pitch throughout. I would suggest trying more of a conversational style than a “presenting” style. The length of the pauses caused a choppiness that made it difficult to appreciate the complete story by the time you were heading into the big finish. Smoothing this out will draw fuller attention from the listener. Chas

ParticipantThere do feel like quite a few micro-pauses in there. To my ear anyway, it felt like it slowed the read down a bit too much and made it feel choppy. Of course, it depends too on what the read is for – If this is a narration and you’re pausing to wait for something changing on the screen or something like that, then maybe it’s OK? I do love your voice for this…very well suited. Toque

ParticipantThe music caught me by surprise but I thought it was a great add-on, your enunciation on each of the words were great and it didn’t seem like you skipped on any of them, however, I do believe that you should slow down a bit, especially when you start mentioning “the sights, sounds, and flavors…” Other than that, great job, your voice truly catches attention.

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.Attachments:

ParticipantHi Monique
Nicely done! I thought the tone, pace and attitude you brought was perfect for this particular message. I did hear two words where I thought the pronunciation needed tweaked but I can’t tell if it is my equipment or not. They are both in the fourth sentence.Get – sounded like G*T
Transaction – sounded like TRUNSACTIONKeep up the good work —Chas

ParticipantContinued practice! Trying out some more narration, all comments are appreciated- especially those focused on performance! The author’s name is pronounced a little strangely so I looked it up before making my recording to make sure it is correct.
What Makes You Happy?
What makes you happier? A pay rise? Your dream house? According to happiness experts, we now know more than ever about what can make us happier and what can’t. “Most of us think that having millions or a sports car would make us happy,” says Dr. Nick Powdthavee, author of The Happiness Equation, “but we’ve found the things that brought people the most happiness were those they had already, such as friends and family.”
Some of us are born with personality traits that keep us on a natural high. Psychologists have now identified over 130 traits that corelate to being naturally happy or glum. Not naturally joyful? Try and work on these: You’re naturally happy if you are: Extroverted, understanding, self-confident, creative, assertive and practical. You’re naturally unhappy, if you anger easily, are self-conscious, anxious and almost always feel stressed. So, what is it, that makes you happy or glum?

ParticipantHi everyone! Just doing some practice on commercial work. Any feedback is appreciate – thanks!
My child has quite an imagination. His teachers say that some day he’ll be doing great things. Right now, he’s already an architect, a designer, an engineer … I think he’s a creative genius … and thanks to Legos, the creative building toy, there’s just no limit to what he can do. LEGOS … the creative diversion that helps develop a child’s potential.

ParticipantNice Job Christy
I enjoy the lite fry in your voice a few times in the read…The s in things is diffidently lost.

ParticipantVery nice work! I’ll echo the other comment that you could lean more into the build up to “I think he’s a creative genius” before flipping and revealing the humor written into the script that it’s really Legos that are being referenced. A slightly more clear distinction between the parts would help the humor shine and give your already great read the extra bump to broadcast ready in my eyes!

ParticipantChristy. Really nice read. A conversational sound with nice moments. I could hear the proud mother coming through. What’s a bit lost, as I hear it, is the twist in the copy: going from “an architect, a designer, an engineer” seeming literal (albeit incredulous) to, “Ah, I get it! Legos!” I’m can’t pinpoint what’s off, though. It may be that the ellipses are treated more like periods. As a suggestion, don’t complete the thought at “an engineer”, rather make the list sound as if it could go on and on but you stop yourself. On a technical note, at the end of “great things” much of the ‘s’ was lost. It sounded more like an editing issue than technique. But, overall, well done!

Life insurance.
Life Insurance: It isn’t for the people who die, it’s for the people who live.
Are you prepared?
Without insurance, your financial plan may be just a savings and investment program that dies when you do.
What will your family do then?
An insurance agent or other financial professional can help you create a plan that will provide for the people you love after you’re gone.

ParticipantHey Robert,
I like your voice tone ..I think a little rushed as well..
Noticed your volume changed in the last quarter of read. May want to watch your meter for consistency.
Just trying to be helpful here..
not sure if the funeral music works maybe a bit more life in the read and volume on music via ducking -

ParticipantHi Robert, I really enjoy listening to your voice. It has a very nice quality to it! The read feels a little rushed to me. What would you think about the briefest of pauses after the questions? Or maybe it’s just a change in tone from the question to the sentence that follows it. I think I would feel as if you were really asking me the question. Nice work overall!
