    For this role, the voiceover will act as a guide to the viewer who is going on scenario-based training

    Script to read:

    An apartment block could serve perfectly as temporary shelter for the community.
    It is located near town, where there are jobs, a market, and a school.
    But you need to find out more… There are three actions you can take to investigate the property.
    But remember: each action will take a full day to complete.
    The choice is up to you.

    Production is working on a training video which requires a voiceover in the style of a newsreader

    Script to read:
    The outbreak of war has resulted in thousands of families fleeing their homes.
    The UN has deployed peacekeepers in the area, but over 300,000 men, women, and children remain displaced.
    A group of 800 households, with nowhere to go, is stranded in a flood-prone field near a town.
    With the rainy season fast approaching, these families need a safer place to stay.
    As Head of Emergency Response for the area, it’s up to you to find a more suitable solution.

      You have a great gravitas to your voice that suits this kind of read. I did notice you have very bright vowels (midwesterner? I noticed it especially in your short “a” sound like in the word “stranded” and “fast”), so as an exercise, I’d suggest seeing if you can take regionalism out of your voice. I think this read is very effective, but having control of that might give you some more options.

    This an actual audition read for Mandy’s

    This is the 1 and only take…I think I nailed it, opinions?

    Description is below

    Casting for a either British or American English speaking male voiceover artist. The video is a corporate video related to the content of technology and information, including some data, numbers and general description of the internet and technology industry. Your voice needs to be confident, professional, a bit formal, informative and warm.

    Script to read:
    With a population of nearly 700 million and an average age of just 30, Southeast Asia is embracing the rapid surge of the game industry by virtue of the rapid popularity of the Internet and a large population of young people.
    By 2021, the number of online game players reached to 250 million in Southeast Asia.
    The compound annual growth rate is expected to be 8.5% from 2022 to 2027.

    Hello friends,

    Find attached my third Edge homework assignment, shared for your enjoyment and critique. This time, I chose from Edge’s narration-scripts library an excerpt from “A Brief History of Time”, and a bit from a online tour of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s nuclear power facilities.

    I would sincerely appreciate all feedback. Thank you very much for your time and attention!

      Great work! Regarding your TVA read, I would suggest slowing down the read just a bit to avoid sounding rushed

    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!
