ParticipantHi Dave. Daniel in San Diego. You’ve got a great voice for this! I hear the pace was directed by the client. That may be the case, but you may want to use one of your takes to let them hear what it would sound like a little faster and with shorter pauses. It seems a bit too slowed down. Just my impression. Pace aside, I think you could still vary your second take from the first even more than you have. You use somewhat more tonal range in the second one, but less than you could maybe? I hear the 2 “character” voices, which is good, but they’re still quite similar to my ear. The depth of your natural voice already suggests a “cowboy” quality so I don’t think you even need to put the character voice on. Just having the thought in your mind will bring it out enough. Otherwise, it can sound exaggerated in parts. My two cents, of course, and I’m splitting hairs because they’re already both very good reads that show lots of possibility. Excellent!

ParticipantAcura Commercial Practice – Looking for some feedback before my next coaching session! Things I was told to work on in the past include – Pacing – too fast, getting lazy with enunciation and pronunciation of multi syllable words, dreaded glottal stops.
Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated. Edited with Audacity – noise reduction, compressed, amplified and exported to mp3.

ParticipantHere are three files on narration that I am currently in the process of working on. Since the desktop I used when making these recordings uses an SSD Hard Drive, I was wondering if that made a difference in the quality of the audio itself?

ParticipantHey everyone! My biggest challenge has been moving from a more “announcer” read to a more conversational tone. It is still definitely a work in progress, but let me know your thoughts. The first is an in-show narration read and the second is a more self-help style read.

ParticipantHello and good morning fellow VO peers. I would like feedback and critique on a recording I did based of a Telephony script, called Franklin Investments, from Edge Studio’s Free Script Library. I need to know some specific things such as:
If my pacing is too slow, fast, or just right?
Does it sound conversational and convincing?
Are you able to understand each word I say while reading the script?Thank you in advance.
-Marcus

ParticipantYou have a very pleasing voice to listen to! One thought I had during your read, was that the pace could be quickened a bit. You are clear and understandable, but I bet if you can speed up the read a bit you can still keep those points. Toward the end when reading the number prompts, it seemed a bit choppy. You may want to try and adjust the pauses in each phrase so that there is no breath break. For example, something like “if you would like to leave a message (no pause) please press two now”. Great job!

ParticipantHi there! firstly, I just want to say that I’m a newbie and I’m not used to giving constructive feedback, but I guess one has to start somewhere! I don’t have all the lingo down perfectly either. I did enjoy your reads, but I wanted to confirm these are narration focused? I found the Reach for the top read was more upbeat than the Toddler Art one. It seemed like you were more confident in this one. Your voice reminds me of an actress and it’s very pleasant to listen to. Noticed some stops in a couple areas that didn’t seem to belong there. I think the more you practice it the more natural it will become – especially if you try to imagine you are talking to your best friend about these topics!
