I just listened to Amex and thought you sounded really believable. When you said “and American Express keeps it that way” I wanted to cheer “Yeah!” for privacy. Thought you nailed that line. Your tone seemed very fitting and appropriately authoritative for the serious content.

[Seth Jackson]

One thing my teacher is drilling into me, is to make it more conversational.

Hi, everyone- I’ve uploaded two practice reads that I’d appreciate some feedback on. Thanks so much!

Hi Artist 7 – Friendly, inviting tone and good energy for both records – nice! Good differentiation between the two, too. Just a quick note that on Spotify the ”p” in partying is popped also the record volume is low for both.

[Artist7]

Hi, BJ- Thanks for the feedback! OK. Looks like I’ll need to look into the sound issues and make some sound adjustments.

[DillonP]

I have a new Commercial read and an old Narration I had done. This time I used my newest microphone to record. please give me feedback that can help with my recording and if my new microphone would work better or not.

What if you gave the MTV ad a bit more enthusiasm? Mic sounds great BTW.

Would love to get feedback on this. Here’s the script – “The Julia” –
You’re listening to the actual recording of “the Julia”. A subsonic moan that doesn’t match the sound of any marine creature ever recorded.
Many biologists will tell you it’s a deep-sea distress call. And when you listen, it’s easy to see why. The mysterious howling was captured by deep-sea hydrophones off the coast of Cape Adare. The same place Nasa captured photographs of a huge, unexplained shadow moving through the water.
It may well be a coincidence, but if the Julia really is a distress call from the deep, perhaps it’s time we answered. Ninety-five per cent of our oceans remain unexplored. Are we killing what we’ve yet to discover?

It is a good read and the pacing was spot on. The only thing I could say about it is that you should lower your volume for this one due to the echoing and reflecting of sound. Other than that everything was great. Keep at it!

[SteveVO]

Thanks. I appreciate it.

[Seth Jackson]

Focusing on the conversational aspect of my read. Any feedback would be awesome. Please and thank you.

Love your sound, Seth. Sounds like a voice I’d hear on a real commercial. My only offering is to pick up the pace just a touch. Sounded super!!

[Seth Jackson]

I do enjoy much more while picking the pace, for sure. Thanks you two.

Hi Seth, I think you absolutely have a conversational tone from beginning to end in your read, and your voice has a knowledgeable, reassuring tone that it is perfect for the script. I think you could experiment doing this one at maybe a slightly quicker pace without losing any of the friendly, warm delivery you have here. Awesome all around!

[Seth Jackson]

Awesome! Thank you.

[D B]

Hi all. These are practice reads for my narration demo. I would really appreciate your listen and feedback. Thank you.

Hi DB,

Your reads were great! Smooth, informative and good tone. I think you need a little bit more emphasis on certain words/phrases, such as the last line in Tough Mudders. I also really like the pacing in The Ravens. Wonderful job!

[Michele Martin]

I haven’t taken any narration classes or narration specific coaching sessions, but thought this sounded great! Nothing jumped out at me or gave me that little twitch of “not quite right”. It was easy to listen to and I liked the pacing and tone variation!

[D B]

Hi Michele, thank you for listening and for your encouraging feedback. I appreciate it a ton!

Hi Veronica, I loved your reads: the variation between them in tone, and your knowledgeable delivery! Your voice has such a lovely balance of upbeat and informative. I think you could try both at a slightly slower pace without losing any of the vibrancy of your read—-it’s interesting, and your voice is awesome for it. Nice work!

[vlwalinski]

Hi DB,

Thank you for taking the time to provide me feedback! I will slow down the pace, which is challenge for me! Thank you again for the encouraging comments!!!:-)

Best,
Veronica

Hello! I would greatly appreciate any feedback on these two narration recordings (one corporate explainer, one documentary). Thank you so much!

Hi Talia, I think both reads are fantastic. I love the quality of your voice and the energy it has. In the first read, you’re informative but also warm and friendly, and your diction is so clear and precise. In the second, your voice is very engaging and draws the listener in, even though the subject is serious—I wanted to keep listening. I think if you tried both reads ever so slightly slower, you would still have a very energetic delivery, because your voice is compelling. Loved listening to your reads!

[BJ]

Hi – I’m working on some additional tracks for my narration demo. I’d greatly appreciate you listening to these two reads and giving me some feedback. The first is a non-profit read and the second is an education (pet adoption) read. Thanks in advance:)!

Hi, BJ- I enjoyed listening to both reads! Really liked the guinea pig read. One minor item on the AAFA read…the word “triggering” almost sounds like “twiggering.” Aside from that, very nice work!

[Erika S]

Hi- I enjoyed both of your reads. I especially love how you said the word “cute” about the guinea pigs! I can picture it and hear your smile! Sounds warm and friendly. So Nice!

[BJ]

Erika – Appreciate your listen and feedback
