Hi Everyone,
My name is Elena and I’m new to this. I’ve recorded a couple of samples, so any feedback would be very much appreciated.Thank you

Hi Elena! Great reads. I’m actually a bit jealous of your diction and pronunciation. You have a great voice for healthcare advertising.
I would second solin232 on the recording feedback. It just sounded a bit “airy” which is most likely do room you’re recording in. It didn’t distract too much, but I’m sure it’s making your voice sound slightly different.

Hi Elena, Great job! I liked both of your reads! I enjoyed your tone, the pacing, your diction! The only things I hear are issues with the recorings, like sibilance and you may need a treated space to get a better quality recording (Volume was fine) I’m far from an engineer but these things jumped right out at me! Thanks for encluding copys of the scripts! Hope to hear you again soon!
Best of luck!
Steve

Hey everyone!
Finally getting a chance to upload a read for my Coaching Homework. I’m focusing on Narration and this is called “Cosmos” from the edge studio script library. I’ve been trying to work on pacing, conversational style and glottal stops but any feedback at all is welcome!
Let me know what you think!
-
I was engaged an interested in the material. I liked the elongated connection bt “izzforthe moment;” the articulation of “cosmic perspective;” and the subtle and gentle “soft meadow.”
a few words I thought might need attention (perhaps slowed down?) – “nitrogen,” “certainty” and “accumulated”. lovely voice -
Hey Alexcharles! I thought your tone sounded very conversational and less like you’re reading from a script. I aslo appreciated the technique in which you’re approaching the read (almost like a documentary narrator)
There were two things I noticed as I was listening:
1) the word “nitrogen” seemed very rushed (or it could’ve been clipped in the recording
2) The read sounded very even keel through the entire script. Try playing with giving a few phrases different emotions or slightly changing the pace based on a certain phrase

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.

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.

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.

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

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!

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.
