Hi again. I’m back with a quicker read of the Greek vacation narration bit I posted the other day. Curious if this feels like a good middle ground as far as pace goes. I tend to read on the faster side and sometimes overcorrect in the opposite direction. I’ve added a few others I’m working on for my demo. I’m using Izotope De-esser and De-click very lightly on all of these which are new to my setup. Any feedback is welcome. Thanks!
Hi everybody. I’m practicing for my narration demo and would love some feedback on this one. How’s the pace / is it conversational / any technical issues? Thanks!

These are really engaging! Hooked on Phonics has such a great inviting feel to it. When listening to Aruba, your voice sounds great but I think I wanted to see the picturesque views in the read. Like listening to a friend who just got back from the best trip of their life.
I also struggle with extra saliva and am still exploring options for that. Lately, I’ve been popping in a honey throat lozenge before recording and it seems to thicken the saliva so it isn’t so noisy.
Really nice reads on all of these! They all seem to be at a good volume but Social Security was a little bit quiet. If the gain was the same for all 4 takes you may have been a little far from the mic? I know I sometimes back away from the mic when I’m concerned about mouth sounds so I don’t know if maybe that was a factor here. Even still, not so quiet that it couldn’t do with a little boost in whatever software you’re recording with.
Wow, what a great voice! The first read has a seriously great vibe but I think I prefer the second read. It has a more varied pitch range which gave it some extra intrigue.
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!
