Hi Robert,
I like the tone of your voice and enjoyed the reads. I agree with the comments already made. Let your voice match the music’s energy and the message’s sentiments. Keep up the good work!
I agree. Nice reads. I really like your sound on “Relaxation.” I will pass on a tip I learned recently that I plan to implement; If the script/topic is not interesting to me when I read it to myself, others will not be interested when you deliver it. This may help “Making-Candy” sound less like you are reading the script. Overall, nice job.
I like your tone of voice and you did a nice job emphasizing the brand names.
The recommendations I would make as you continue to perfect your skills:
* Try to visualize the visuals that will accompany your read so you can add appropriate tones with the words, i.e. A1 – “Mmmm, delicious” was a little flat as opposed to how you would say it if you were imagining taking a bite of a big juicy burger 🙂
The same applies to reading the menu items in the Atlanta Bread read.
* The read sounds a bit choppy. Try to read a few more words in your one breath to smooth out the read, while maintaining the nice slow pace you used.
* I’ll pass on a tip I received a few years ago, pay attention to how you talk with your friends/family (record it if necessary), then try to incorporate those elements in your read.
I commend your perseverance. This is my first time hearing your recordings. So, unfortunately, I won’t be able to congratulate any improvements.
I’m here because Coach Goldberg recommended that I critique a few peer recordings to help me self-critique and edit my own recordings as if I were a director.
I like your friendly tone. I will pass on a tip I received in a coaching session a few years ago; “pretend you are talking to a friend”. This will allow you to sound more conversational, natural, and not like you are reading. I hope this helps.
I love the tone of your voice; rich and natural. I also like the inflection in your voice the nice steady pace of the read.
I have no recommendations for improvement. However, It would be nice to hear a read that shows a little variety in your presentation as these three reads sounded relatively the same.
First, I’d like to commend you for the courage to put yourself out there. This is how we grow. 🙂
I like your friendly tone. I’m not sure of the order in which you recorded the VO’s, but as I listened to each recording, your voice sounded more natural and had more inflection that captured my attention more.
One recommendation I would offer is to emphasize the name of the product so it stands out a little from the rest of the text.
