Hey everyone. In advance of my next coaching session, I was hoping to get some feedback on these reads. They’re for working on narrations. Please let me know what you think!

Nice read..! The pace and phrasing are really spot on. And they both have a nice one-on-one feel.
Smooth where it can be, and edgy where it needs to be.
Impressive…!

Hi Steve,
It was a good read. And I think you can make it better with practice.

Hey everyone. Embarrassed….this is my 3rd attempt at uploading my files. Fingers crossed! As part of my training, I would appreciate all feedback. Do I sound conversational? How is my speed, diction, etc. Thanks in advance.

[debbyc]

Hoping I’m able to upload this time! I have just started my journey into narration voice over training. I would appreciate your feedback on my first couple of reads. One is for a travel planning video. The other is an audio voice over for a museum tour. I would love some feedback please. I am working on sounding conversational, slowing my pace and sounding natural vs choppy. Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone,

I would love technique feedback on this documentary read. Don’t mind any background noise. Thank you!

Grace, you have a really good feel for the material. There are a couple of places where the inflection seems a bit out of place. “Although his wife dees most of the talking….” needs to be an addendum to the previous sentence as they form a single thought.

Also, your pronunciation of your voiced “th” sounds have a ‘d’ sound. You would have to check with a coach about if/when you would work on that.

Other than that, it was a nice read…! As I mentioned, you have a nice feel for this kind of material, and a really clear and clean voice. Nice Work…!

Hello Everyone!
In advance of my next class, I am posting a couple of reads – one a promo for From History to Words and the other is a short guide to making a mint julep.
Would welcome feedback re pace, tone and tempo or anything else that catches your ear.

Thanks!
John

You have a good voice and its probably great for promo too. For the first read, try having somebody you’re speaking to and have a reason why you’re speaking to them to help make your words flow better, so it’s not as choppy, especially in the middle and end of the read. Also, don’t be afraid to pause, just as long as the pauses are purposeful and add to the tone and vibe of the message. Pausing in the appropriate places would make the read more exciting and suspenseful. I think especially in promo, the narrator is like a voice of g*d, all knowing and in control of the message. So be purposeful with the pacing, so it doesn’t sound like you’re rushing.

For the second one, I recommend hitting the action words(like garnish, stir), instead of the nouns like “sprig.” But no need to overemphasize just have a purpose for why you’re saying what you’re saying, who specifically you’re talking to, and with the knowledge of what words to hit. it’ll come naturally. This read could also use more “flow” between the words, just like the first read, so i recommend the same thing for that. Good job!

Really like the vocal change-up. A bit more deep smoothness in second VO?

[Erika S]

You have a great voice! Maybe try to play with the tone a little more. At “all inclusive all the time” to really draw in the listener. Really smooth and inviting!

Hello! I would really appreciate some feedback on these two short practice reads. Thanks in advance!

Nice vocal variation, but I was having a hard time hearing non-inflected words.

[SuperLuke]

Hi,
I enjoyed hearing the recordings. But there were times in the second recording when I couldn’t hear everything you said about Honest Tea.
