ParticipantHi again – this was for 10 second digital ad audition – “looking for cool voice with swagger”. Did you feel the swagger? Thanks, Lance

ParticipantYeah…I liked the second read as well. It had an extra measure of swagger that the first read lacked. Tough to get capture “too cool for school” in 10 secs, but I think you got it. Great read!!

ParticipantLoved the second read! I would even take it a bit further to really grab the attention in those 10 short seconds. Great work!

ParticipantHey, Lance – great read. That feels like a tough script to get the message across while still sounding “friendly and experienced.” You got them both though. I agree that the tempo felt slow. But you gotta hit the points in the script and make them all sound important

ParticipantGreat job on sounding experienced and friendly! I would just speed it up a tad. A little more urgency to keep the listener interested.

ParticipantHello Feedback Forum,
I’m currently working on my narration demo and would love some feedback on these two sample script reads.
Does my read sound conversational?🤔 ( I’m not working from a professional home studio yet, so I’m not quite ready for any technical feedback )Thanks so much for taking the time to listen and share your thoughts.

ParticipantGreat reads, Joe!! Definitely conversational.
Both should have a wide eyed feel (for different reasons lol). I liked the earth origin read better. -

ParticipantThe Allstate read had the feeling of you putting an arm around the listener and showing them how to achieve their life goals. Good, intimate read. Drew the listener in…
Advil was good as well. Clearly explaining the product and its benefits in an authoritative tone in what felt like a tough script to read.
Thanks for these

ParticipantI liked your waterpik read, though I feel like you could up the tempo in the beginning and the end of the commercial. The tempo in the middle sounded perfect to me.

ParticipantHi Samsheeks
Tone sounds good I would try to read straight through without the pauses

ParticipantATTN SPANISH SPEAKERS// folks working in the Spanish/Spanglish commercial genre! Will you take a listen?
I’m a commercial genre kindergartner and basically an infant when it comes to doing any VO in Spanish, so any and all performance/technique notes are appreciated! Strongly considering adding some bilingual fun to my first demo.
Not looking for technical or sound quality notes today, just ~general~. always aiming at natural, conversational, and understandable.I also ran the Ziploc piece a couple times for fun. Still trying to pin down what my signature voice is so, gonna keep trying a few different styles in the forum.

ParticipantZiploc: Great understanding of the script and your voice is perfect for this spot. It got a bit staccato towards the end where the thought could be smoothed out. I did hear some sounds that sounded like bumping the mic… not sure what they’re from but they were distracting.

ParticipantLovely voice to listen to! I would like to hear more variety between your spots and within each spot. More connection to the script, perhaps? You have a very distinct “performing” voice that could sound more natural.

ParticipantI like how you slated your name and then performed the copy. Maybe add some deeper tone, similar to the “Allstate” guy on TV. Anyway, it was a nice recording to listen to. Keep up the practice!

ParticipantHi Glen! I really liked your instinct to get soft and intimate in the potennix spot, but I think you have a distinct rhythm that you hit almost like a metronome, that makes it a lil monotonous. Definitely feel free to play around with your tempo more. I felt similarly about the mortgage holder piece. Jumping in on a phrase like “the cinema has no boundary,” is so epic ! maybe try to lead in slowly and then warm up as you get to recommendation part of the spot, just for some more dynamism. <3 good luck!
