Hi Keith. Your reads are technically sound. They were clear and well-paced with decent sound quality. However, they were a bit dry. As a narration, I was expecting to feel the doctor’s emotions. For instance, he was THE ONLY DOCTOR IN THE REGION, treating patients who HAD BEEN TURNED AWAY, working tirelessly DESPITE WARNINGS. (Caps are for emphasis, not me yelling).
The doctor is telling his story, he had to have felt something from this event.
Now that you’ve got the words out, lose yourself in the reading and paint us a picture of his emotional journey. (Think James Kirk, overacting in Star Trek)
Apply this to both reads.
I think you’re off to a good start.Shelly, very nice. Very crisp and clear with no plosives and a quality sound booth. Your Esses were clear as well. Your DAW sounds good to me, although an actual engineer may hear things differently.
Be sure to edit out the mouse clicks at the end.Great job Emily. I like your enthusiasm and pacing. Some acoustical treatments in the room will go a long way for you.
It depends on the read, but try to be just a bit more natural sounding (like talking and not reading)
Nice first steps into the world of VO.
Debbyc, nicely done. You sounded very authoritative in your read, like you knew your material. My suggestion would be to check your rooms acoustics. Make sure you have as much treatment as you can to absorb the sound. It also sounds like you are standing off from your mic.
Talia, great job. Very fluent and well-paced delivery. Don’t try to be too perfect, especially with the Crayola read, unless you are specifically asked to. Let your humanity shine through a little. Also, be mindful of your plosives. There’s normally an indicator of the front of your mic. Try to set it more obliquely to the direction of your speaking and, of course, use a pop shield.
Again, great job!Hi all. It’s been a while. I am still working on my audiobook reads. I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks.
Hi guys, I’ve been trying to perfect this poetry read from Edgar A Poe’s The Raven.
Let me know what you think.I appreciate the feedback.
Rachel, this demo is very good. My only suggestion would be to give us more of a roller-coaster ride, i.e. more highs and lows in terms of animation. And remember to billboard the company name with a bit of a space before and after.
Declan, these are both very good Reads. I like that they are conversational.
I’ll give my opinion because the reads were very good.
In the Freshii read, when you ask the questions, there should be more inflection to accentuate that they are questions. Yours sound more like statements.
The Sesame Place read, should be more animated, as if talking to children. Essentially the ad is directed to catch a child’s attention so they bug their parents about going.
Overall, very good job.
