Hi Mary! Hmmm. Maybe caviar is different regionally? https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/caviar

I actually intended to deliver those sentences you mentioned with a more monotone sound, especially the “P.S.” line. I pretty much ignored my own punctuation, lol. I read the copy two ways, and this version sounded better. Maybe it was me.

Thanks again for the feedback. I always appreciate it!

Thanks sabpierotti for the feedback! I can go back and edit the pauses, and tighten them up! And keeping the volume the same for the “P.S.” sentence does make sense! I’ll go back in and do that line over, or make a new recording if it doesn’t exactly match. Thanks again!

Helllooo! Here is a little in-store announcement script I put together for Costco Wholesale, specifically for Costco Grocery. It took me a little while to get what I was going for. Apologies if I sound nasally; nothing I can do at the moment. Let me know what you think. All feedback is welcome and appreciated! Thanks!

Hi Mary! Good job on varying your tone and pitch, and pausing where needed. — Kathy

Robert this is awesome! Tweak the music volume/mix, and this sounds ready to go! — Kathy

Hi Robert!

Great job on the read! Great choice of music, too. With that said, the volume of the background music almost drowned out your voice, in my opinion. Minor suggestion.

Keep it up!

Good read! I agree with Robert about the volume and the background being lessened. — Kathy

Hi Katelyn!

Nice read! Good job with changing your pitch and tone. One suggestion: the script had the date as “28”, and that is how you read it (because we don’t want to change what is written), but in an audition you might want to check how they would want you to read it. It seems common to say “28th” when speaking, even when it’s not on paper. A minor detail, but important one. Keep it up!

Hi Damian, good job on the read! Do you play? Nice enthusiastic tone throughout. Something to be mindful of: micro-pauses that like to sneak in when we are reading, that are not intended to be there. — Kathy

Great job! Really nice read! Way to keep it natural sounding! Keep it up! — Kathy
