Hi Nettipo. This read is fantastic. The tone, tempo, pitch, and volume are all on point. The recording quality is great. Sounds very professional. Great job.

Hey Markos. Great job on both reads. Both have great tone, tempo, and you hit all the key words nicely. Also the recording quality is solid. Good luck with the demo.

Hi Tim. I really liked the Freshi read the most out of the three. I feel like the copy naturally fits your voice and style. The tempo of the Freshi read is great, and you hit the key words nicely, great job. For the American Express read you hit the key words nicely, but I feel like the tone of the read didn’t fit the copy. Lastly the Ancient Mysteries read, I dig it, but I don’t think the tone fits with an NBC promo.

Hi Taylorn. I really like your voice, and the recoring quality sounds solid to me. My advice for you is to slow down the tempo of the read. Take your time with it. Also as nettipo1 mentioned, make sure you hit key words in the script.

Hi everybody. I’m posting my homework assignment for my next Narration class. Please feel free to provide feedback on performance and recording quality.

Thank you,
Erik

Ernest Hemingway

For over twenty years, Ernest Hemingway spent virtually every fall and winter at Sun Valley, Idaho. Although his legendary haunts were Italy, France, Switzerland, Spain and Cuba, Idaho was his true home. The wild mountain crags, the sunny meadows were his nirvana. The hunting and fishing were always good there. The canoe trip down the Silver Creek or a trek up a pass of the Pahsimeroi (Paw-sim-er-roy) Range unfailingly yielded fresh game for the table. Papa and his fiction thrived on the alternating sessions of high adventure and novel writing.

Earth

This is he story of a small planet in space called Earth. Today it has mighty oceans; scorched deserts; and frozen wilderness. It supports a multitude of diverse creatures, and is home to more than 6 billion people and their technological civilization. But how did all this come about? Where do we come from? Unti recently, Earth and its lifeforms were a mystery. Like a huge upainted canvas, little was known about the origin of Earth and its inhabitants. But today, we have a rough idea o f what happened. It began – with a bang!

Hi Andrea. The pacing and tone of the read are good. I liked the way you read the last three sentences. The only critique I have is, at times you sound tense during the read. Maybe try to envision talking to a friend, and telling them about 4H. Overall good job.

Hi Bill, I like this read. The tone and tempo are very good. You enunciate clearly, and the recording quality is solid. The only minor suggestion I have is to maybe differentiate just a little more between, “set objectives, agree on development opportunities, and provide feedback, coaching, and performance or development reviews.” But overall very good job.

Hi Ryan. I’ll share with you my notes for each of the three reads.

Crayola – good tempo and pacing. The Crayola Color Wonder line sounded like it ended with upspeak, watch out for that. Good recording quality

You Tube Red – This was my favorite of the three recordings. Good build-up as the read continues. In the fourth sentence like, offline needed a pause. Good recording quality.

Mickey’s Halloween – good character. Sentences with exclamation marks needed to be accentuated more/more umph. Good recording quality.

Overall good job.

Hi Luke, congrats on a great demo. The McFatty’s part had me cracking up. Great job Man!
