Thanks! I was starting to struggle a bit with that last recording due to my sinus infection. Now that my coaching session is out of the way, I can baby my voice for a few days until I get over this.

Hi, everyone! Here are my latest home recordings. Recorded on my iPad, so not studio quality. I’m also just getting over a sinus infection, so my voice is still a little rough at times. I mostly recorded this to check how my voice sounds for today’s coaching session. Thanks to Throat Coat Tea for helping with my voice while getting over this sinus infection! Thank you to everyone for your feedback!

Thanks, Cam! I will definitely work on that more. I’m still working on slowing down some of my script reads.

Hi, everyone! Here are my latest homework recordings for my sessions with Danielle. These are recorded on my iPad since I’m still working on getting my home studio space set up, so the sound quality isn’t studio perfect on these recordings. I just need feedback on my readings. I have uploaded three recordings. I am attaching three recordings from the student script library.

Thank you for your feedback!

Thanks! I’m a cat person and graduated from Mississippi State University. I’m still getting my recording equipment set up, so these were recorded on my iPad just for homework purposes. My microphone was on back order and finally got here last week, so now I can work on putting all that together. Thanks for the advice on pauses. Some times I overthink pauses a bit so they end up a little short. Thanks for the advice on sounding more conversational. My background is a broadcast communication degree and some career experience behind scenes in tv news and radio, so I’m working on making my broadcasting training sound more conversational in my VO reads.

Thanks! I’m still working on neutralizing my accent a little more, but it helps that my coach says southern accents are good in voice over. I mentioned in my reply to nettipo1 that my degree is in broadcast communication with some career experience behind scenes in tv news and radio. I’m working on unlearning some of that broadcaster voice to sound more conversational. Your suggestions are a big help!

Thanks! I’m still working on a more neutral accent, but my coach says southern accents are also good in voiceovers. I like your suggestions about thinking of certain imagery. My degree is in broadcast communication with some career experience behind scenes in tv news and radio, so I’ve been used to broadcaster voice. Now I’m unlearning a little bit of that to sound more conversational in VO. Everyone’s suggestions here on the forum are a big help!

The Pampers Swaddlers VO sounded good with your softer voice, and your more energetic voice sounded good on the Cadillac VO. Great reads!

[CatgirlMSU]

I agree with suecat. Both reads sounded good and conversational, but the first read had a more fun quality to it. Great work!

Let’s try this again. I hope the files upload properly this time. Please disregard my previous post.

Hey, everyone! Here are three recordings for my narration homework. I recorded these on my iPad so I just need feedback on my reading since the audio isn’t as flawless as studio quality. I’m a bit nervous about submitting my first homework recordings. As a side note, my southern accent shows through some, but I’m working on making it sound more neutral as part of my coaching sessions. Thank you for any feedback!

Documentary on Jazz
It is America’s music. It is an improvised Art, making itself up as it goes along. It rewards individual expression. But demands selfless collaboration. It is forever changing. But nearly always rooted in the blues. It has a rich tradition and its own rules. But it is brand new every night.

About Horror
Take a trip back to a time when late night creature features were all the rage and the personalities that presented them were just as popular as the movies. Beginning in the 1950s, the horror fest was a staple of regional television. From ghouls to vampires – to werewolves and crypt keepers – every host had a persona to suit their unique personalities.

A Haunting Tale
In this world, there is real evil.
In the darkest shadows and in the most ordinary places.
These are the true stories of the innocent and the unimaginable.
Between the world we see and the things we fear.
There are doors.
