#2 Venice
Venice has more than a thousand years of history behind it, but no one has ever seen it in exactly the same light or colors. Each hour, each minute, it changes its apparel of water and clouds, dazzling light and reflections. Venice…an ever-lasting, and ever-changing vacation.
Hi Elvie,
You have an ethereal quality to your voice. Light and airy. It is lovely. Some of the words here could benefit from more emphasis. You give some emphasis on no one, ever, and dazzling light. They could take more emphasis. The word “thousand” would sound more of what it means by sounding it out a bit more. The delivery is smooth. If there were video along with the promo the pacing may need to be a bit slower.
You do make visiting Venice sound like a lovely prospect.

Autism Awareness
As a parent, you can’t help but look at your child and dream about what the future holds. But while you’re dreaming, consider this – the odds that your child will be diagnosed with autism are 1 in 88. Knowing the signs of autism and catching it early can make a world of difference.

Narration (guided meditation) Feedback on delivery/technique appreciated. Recorded on a practice mic (not pro mic) so tech feedback is less important. Thank you!
Meditation
Make yourself comfortable, sitting upright, with a straight spine. With your eyes closed, look at the point midway between the eyebrows on your forehead. Inhale slowly, counting to eight. Hold the breath for the same eight counts while concentrating your attention at the point between the eyebrows. Now exhale slowly to the same count of eight. Repeat three to six times.
Hi DS,
Your tone and pacing match your content. Nice quality to your voice which promotes confidence in the listener to relax and go along with the prompts. Very clear and welcoming.
Technically there is something going on while you are speaking. You sound a bit echoey (is that a word?) and like a soft shuuuuuu sound going on. It is dead silence in between. Can hear definite difference between the two settings.

Dublin
Home over the centuries to great writers like Johnathan Swift, George Bernard Shaw and James Joyce. Dublin has always been a center of the arts. Now, with the still roaring Celtic Tiger economy to support it, Ireland’s Capital City is the bustling home of ever-burgeoning business, important cultural institutions, lively nightlife and a youthful energetic population of both natives and newcomers.

Jerry Seinfeld
The move to New York meant returning to his roots for Seinfeld, who was born April 29, 1954, in Brooklyn and raised in the Long Island town of Massapequa (which he has always joked was an old Indian name meaning “by the mall”). After graduating from Queens College, Seinfeld appeared at New York comedy spots while supporting himself with odd jobs, including selling lightbulbs over the phone and waiting tables at Brew and Burger. As his act grew more polished, he honed the wry observational style that was to become his trademark.
Hi DS,
The recording quality of this take does not have that “shuuuuuu” feedback, or sound, or whatever it was of the last one. Much better.
I liked this. Sounds as if you are talking about your friend Jerry. Good pacing. Tone. Dynamics of your voice were good. The listener becomes engaged and wants to go with you on this journey through Jerry’s bio.
Nice job!

Hi all! Here are 3 recordings for any and all feedback. Recordings 2 and 3 are the same, but with different background music. Let me know what you think! Thank you,

Beer Story
Next time you order a pint, you’ll find you taste something that isn’t in the recipe.
It doesn’t come from the hops. Or the two-row malted barley.
We like to call it character.
It’s hard to define but easy to recognize.
You find it in great women. And great beers.
Duluth – Re-Re-Re-workers (recordings 2 and 3)
It’s there in the re-working. Satisfaction in the never satisfied. They thrive in the spaces unfinished. They live in the “make it better”. These are the “re – re- re-workers”. This is how they forge their way. Duluthtrading.com.
Finally… an ad for Excedrin. More tonal variation here. Constructive criticism appreciated. Thank you for listening. I know I posted a lot today. 🙏🏼 🙂
Excedrin
Headaches. We all get them. We all wish they would go away. There is a solution. Excedrin. I just take two and there’s no more tension, no more throbbing, no more pain. My headache is completely gone.
Good job, my only feedback is the pacing is to slow from beginning to end. In the beginning you can start a little slow because you are in pain and nobody feels good when they are in pain. Then start slowing picking up the pace starting with “There is a solution”. You’ve taken Excedrin you should be feeling good, no more pain. Happy/Relief. Overall great work!
Hi again! Here’s something else – an audiobook excerpt I recorded. It’s non-fiction – a memoir of the great 20th century philosopher, Ludwig Wittgenstein, by his friend and colleague, Norman Malcolm. It’s a bit long, so listen only as far as you’re interested. All feedback appreciated, as always. Thanks folks!
I thought you read was excellent. I love the tone in your voice. You are really good for audiobooks, your pace and pauses were good, your telling of the memoir bought me in to want to hear more. Great job!
