Hello All,
This is my first submission and I do not yet have a home studio set up, so please forgive the audio quality (or lack thereof). I appreciate any feedback on this read of the NASDAQ script. Thank you!

Hi Michele – Your voice is very easy to listen to. I really like the warmth of your read. It may be just the recording quality, so I’m not sure if I’m hearing sibilant “s”s. Also, consider tightening up the read by eliminating pauses, which in some cases are being dictated by punctuation. Looking forward to hearing more from you, BJ.

[Michele Martin]

Thank you, BJ! I appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback and will practice this with fewer pauses! I wondered myself if it was a bit choppy sounding.

You have a great voice and I like your accent as well. Good diction, pace and style. There were a couple of words I would have liked to hear in full rather than shortened..like hearing “competing” rather than “competin'”

Hello everyone! I am Steph, and this is my first real attempt at recording something for the forum after a long wait but I hope you won’t go too easy on me!
I’m looking into narration for my demo and I’m trying my hand at the Inspiration/Meditation scripts today.
I’ve uploaded 3 reads of the “Awaken Mental Freedom” found here in the script library.
The first is my neutral read: how I read it without too much self-direction or second guessing.
The second is focusing on slowing the tempo since that is something I was critiqued on in my coaching session.
And the third is shifting the tone of the piece to something a bit more actionable, we’ll say.

My only disclaimer is that I know for myself that I wasn’t sitting comfortably in my “signature voice” today, so if at any point you find yourselves thinking maybe a glass of water is what this reading needed, I think so too😂

Looking forward to the critiques🖤

Steph, good job on your reads. I think the best one was your second read. I could hear that you were taking your time with it, which is what this scripts calls for. On your third read I think you punched a couple of words too hard. For instance, “bones” kind of jolted me out of my relaxation listening to you. Overall, you did a great and keep up the good work.

Hi, everyone! I’d very much appreciate some feedback on these two short reads. Thanks!

I really love everything about you History channel promo. Great voice, sounds clean and you can hear just a little smile which is perfect. The Nair read was a fun script and I think it called for a little more of conversational read. It sounded more read than spoken to me. If there’s anything to practice on it would be that. I think you will do great in the VO world if you can nail that down because your voice is so nice and friendly.

[Earthbul]

Great work. Nice smooth flow, very conversational. Really enjoyed the History Channel spot. Good audio quality as well. Keep it up.

[Artist7]

I really appreciate the feedback! Also, many thanks for the feedback on the audio quality, as I’ve been working on that, too!

I really like this script for your voice. You have a natural caring sound that works just right with this. I thought you pacing was good too. It wasn’t rushed at all. Great job.

[Provocaleric]

Nikka,
I enjoyed your read! you have a nice authenticity to your voice. I would only say that sibilance is noticed throughout and try less pausing and more musicality in your voice. Good luck!

[Provocaleric]

thank you, I felt that uncomfortable pause as well. I’ll blow through it a little better. 🙂

[Nikka Kowidge]

Hi VO community, thank you in advance for your feedback on the following read.

I’m interested in any thoughts you have regarding conversational tone especially.

Thank you!

I would like to hear it sped up a little and the difference of inflections as well, but the tone is wonderful! Great to hear you!

[Terry Davis]

Nikka, you have a great voice that I could definitely hear coming through my radio or T.V. I would love to hear you smile more through this and put a little more excitement in what you’re talking about. It should sound like this is an awesome car and your thrilled to tell people about it. Pacing was good but maybe just a half tick sped up. Love the voice and I look forward to hearing more from you.

Hello Community,

I have here three samples. I would love feedback on if you think these come off as conversational.

Thank you so much!

Hi AJ – I like the tone of your voice. 1st sample – You seem comfortable with this script, so I do think you are conversational here. 2nd sample – More pauses within this copy, so it doesn’t come off as conversational here. 3rd sample – Consider eliminating some of your pauses to gain a more natural read. Looking forward to hearing more from you, BJ
