Hi Brian! Very Nice! Only thing I can say is that with this read it makes me want to know what you look like for some reason. And I was told that can take away from the focal point of the job. I don’t know if you just sounded intriguing or what. It sounds great just a little less inflection to sound more narrative.
Hi Erik! Sounds great! I do hear the plosives with your “F’ and “P” and I actually just learned how to avoid those so I will share. When you notice a script that has words that begin with letters “P” “B” & “F” these consonants create plosives. I learned that if you speak on the side of your mic and not directly into it the air pressure that would have caused the plosive will go right by your microphone capsule and avoid the plosive entirely. I tried it and it works. In some cases a plosive is unavoidable and can easily be edited out I don’t know what DAW you use but I use Audacity and it can be edited a number of different ways. Amplify, Fade In/Fade Out, and by using the envelope tool in Audacity. Hope this helps! Nice Job.
Hello Amitofu! Your voice is amazing. Very nice job on all three reads. I did notice unnecessary pauses in reads 2 and 3 which caused you reads to not sound like natural conversation. It almost sounds like your reading, the pauses for punctuation seemed to long. But each sentence was paced well and your energy was great I actually did the Honey Bunches of Oats and the Sandals myself. LOL I think that if you read as if your speaking to a person it will make your reads seamless. Your Sandals read had the perfect amount of conversational transition between each sentence. That one was really nice.
Hi Kevin! Nice read! If you just want an opinion on the read it was great you did well at maintaining your pitch. I agree with Alexis you souned far away from your mic which is something easily corrected. I just found out yesterday that i was talking into the wrong part of my mic and instructed on how to correct it. So I know that the position of your mic is detrimental to the overall audio. But definately an easy fix. Great Job.
Well hello Alexis my name is also Alexis I go by Lexi though. Your voice is very welcoming and confident in this read. Your sound quality is also great! When you say “as a new employee” the word employee tails off and almost sounds like employ. But this sounds awesome I’m sure you could punch and roll to fix that.
Very Nice Katelyn! And great luck I really hope that you get it! Your read sounds excellent I may have only expected the tempo to be a bit faster, but only because you mentioned it. Otherwise you sound nice and clear. I would want to follow the link that you talk about just based on the friendliness of your voice and the perfect amount of energy. Sounded very natural.
Just a practice script from the script library Mitch for practice. I’m really working on honing my editing and mastering skills. I want to be able to put down professional quality work when my coaching is finished. So thank you so much Mitch means a lot to me!
