    A couple quick new records of commercial spots. My first time trying to record late at night. My voice is extra gravely. Maybe I can leverage that somewhere!

      Wish I had something more helpful to say but these both sounded great to me!

    This is a second pass at coaching homework. The focus here was on more natural reads with less theatricality. As always, I appreciate your input.

      You have a great voice. It’s very clear and sounds very versatile from corporate to characters. These sounded natural to me but could have been slowed down a bit. Clocked in at 11 and 22 seconds, so for both you would have a bit more time if it was a 15 and a 30. Unsure it was rushed to sound that way or edited too tightly.

    Hi everyone, I’m submitting something for ongoing training and would appreciate any feedback, thanks

    Passif 2 Speakers

    I fell in love with the sound of the Passif 2 the moment I heard it. The music I heard through those speakers defined my life. Sharing the same, incredibly natural sound with my son 50 years later, is nothing less than special.

    Evenin, friends –

    Here are a couple of reads for an upcoming narration coaching session – both lightly edited.
    Would be grateful for your comments.

    Be well…

    I would really appreciate any feedback on audio quality or VO in any way. This is a narration sample. Thanks very much for any feedback.

      Hey, Dominic-
      Both great reads!
      On Badger, may consider reading as if you are actually watching the badgers. Make the grassland and prairies sound as large as they really are.
      Clarins is the better of the two in my ears. Good tone…conversational yet authoritative.

      Nice job!

    Hello all,

    I am hoping someone would be kind enough to provide me a listen to my demo sample for narration? I think I have put together my first acceptable sounding demo sample but I would love some feedback before I continue on. Thank you in advance for taking time out of your day to read this. Good luck in your own voice over endeavors.

      Love the tamber of your voice. Sorry no one responded to this (was trying to scroll backwards to look for uncommented submissions). This read is effective but I’d love to hear a second option leaning more towards playfulness and excitement. This read I can envision over a very laid back scene of beach lounging, and I think the words could also fit over images of water sports, dancing, hibachi flames and other higher octane all-inclusive resort offerings. Great work!

    Hello, fellow Voice Actors! Thank you in advance for your both your creative and technical feedback to these two commercial reads. Are they convincingly conversational? Is the diction Ok, and are the pacing and flow effective and reflective of the scripts? Any technical comments on the audio quality welcome too. I sincerely appreciate your critiques and direction. Thank you! Best, Alex

      I think the diction and pacing are great on both of these! The only thing that jumped out at me is that the first one could be a little bit louder. Great job!

    Hi, Marioh5, overall, your tone is nice. Regarding the motivation meditation, imagine you’re speaking directly to/engaging with the person and less like like you’re reading to them. In terms of the public service read, sounded fine until the last few seconds where it sounded as though you were reading.

    Hi, Everyone! I’m submitting a couple of practice reads for a homework assignment where I’m working on pace. I’d definitely appreciate feedback on that aspect. Thanks so much for your time!

      Your voice is lovely for advertising. Bright and expressive while also having a smooth quality. My recommendation is to take these scripts and play with accentuating different words to see if you can vary up the read. For example, with the BMW ad, your emphasis on the word “new” makes it sound like the comparison is between old and new versions of that car, but the read is actually comparing other cars “arrived” to the BMW’s “sooner” arrival. Listing to both ads, I think you definitely have the range to play around and get a variety of takes for each one to market yourself with.
