ParticipantFor recording purposes, mostly eliminating background noises, I am resubmitting my Wise Man character read for my demo.
Is this performance better?

ParticipantGreat voice characterization SuperLuke. You seemed to change character a bit over the course of the read. At first you sounded very strained, then you had an english, somewhat Winston Churchill sound then the last sentence lost all the gruffness and Churchill sound and it was just an english accent.

ParticipantThank you docr15 for your comment. Yes, me and my coach talked about “staying in character”. In the beginning I sort of sound like my young self. Then I was doing my best to sound like much time has passed and that I was older. When my voice sounds strained, I was following his advice by “constricting my throat” as I speak to have sound like an old textured, withered, and wise man. At the very end, I had to breathe and let go of my throat as I spoke.
All feedback is welcome! How was the recording quality? Any advice on how to sound older, staying in character, without constricting my throat too much as I perform?

ParticipantWise man and hope script; for character demo. My coach wants me to sound like a gruff, rough textured old wizard who wants to remind his friends about the strength of “hope”. I’m really trying to eliminate problems in my home studio. Feedback needed.
Lawless marauders spread pain and suffering as the sky burns. But we must never abandon Hope. We must look to the light in ourselves and each other. That light will become the dawn of a new civilization.

ParticipantSuperLuke – really liked the grit in your voice, and I was completely picturing the scene – dark and forboding in my mind. Very good!

ParticipantYou did a good job with this recording. Sounded like a real commercial. Although, I thought when you said “ESPN” and “ABC”, I thought you were forcing the words out while trying to make sure you enunciated everything correctly.

ParticipantI didn’t have as much of an issue with your “ESPN” OR “ABC,” I think it sounds great! My only suggestion would be one extra beat before “Home of . . . because the who’s presenting it flows great, but the “what?” oh, “Home of the Citi . . . ” etc., I just would have taken the quick extra beat and hit “Home” a little harder. But it’s very, very good as it is.

ParticipantI think you chose a great tone for this read. It really suited the copy well. Inflections especially towards the end were nice and clear. Good Job!

ParticipantTammy, nice performance for your County Center Homes script! Great recording quality. My only comment would be that it seemed to sound rushed, perhaps you edited the spaces between sentences too tightly? Still, a great-sounding voice! Nicely done.
