Hi Jess,
Technically, the sound is good, I heard no background noise. Your space sounds good to me.
This is an app that helps people sleep, but your voice is so full of energy at the beginning, that I woke up. You need to calm this down a bit from your natural energy.
BTW, your voice would work great with other things that need energy, like cutesy commercials for sports, family, pets, holidays, things like that.
Wish you success!The background sound effects are fine.
And your voice is good.
But Haley is right, the reading was a bit flat. You need to act, and I mean not “forced” acting, but acting like an actor acts. I only listened to composition, and for instance right at the beginning, you need to say the world stood still for the first time like the WHOLE WORLD man, stood still. Your Freshman year determines the rest of your High School life, and if you s***w it up, you are s*****d. And you might be s*****d. ohmygawd.
But you’ve got the technical aspects nailed, and as I said, you’ve got a good voice. You’ll do well. Wish you success.Hello beautiful people,
Here are couple more rehearsals for my upcoming narration demo record. Your feedback is appreciated.
GROW AN AVOCADO
Who doesn’t love fresh guacamole or creamy avocado toast? But after you’ve prepared these avocado dishes, what can you do with that big pit in the center? Why not use it to grow your own avocado tree? It’s an attractive and almost care-free houseplant, and if you live in the right climate it can produce delicious fruit that you can eat!CHROMIUM LI-SAF LASER
Chromium-doped lithium strontium aluminum fluoride or Cr:LiSAF, is a laser media suitable for tunable applications from 780 to 1000nm. With ultra low losses and absorption strength, TeraWatt power, and femtosecond pulses, a Cr:LiSAF laser has an enormous range of uses.Here are some rehearsals for my narration demo. No effects or corrections were done.
CENTRAL WASHINGTON AGRICULTURAL MUSEUM
Welcome to the Central Washington Agricultural Museum. The Farm EquipmenT Yard has multitudes of horse drawn implements, early mechanical farm machinery, antique tractors, and more. If there is a particular antique farming device thaT you are hoping to see, there is a good chance thaT we have iT!ARTICULATIONS
An articulation, or joint, is a point of contact between bones. Although most joints in the body allow considerable movement, some allow only limited movement or none at all. The sutures of the skull, for example, are adjacent bones that are bound together into a strong and rigid protective plate.POLAR BEARS
Winter in the arctic. This is a no-man’s land. Literally. For half the year, this vast area is locked in ice, and devoid of sunlight. Even plants can’t make it. The temperatures plummeting to minus 40 for weeks on end. This really is the toughest place to make a living.THE STOCK MARKET
The term “stock market” refers to one of the major indexes such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average or the Standard & Poor’s 500 – the S&P.
Because it’s hard to track every single company, the Dow and S&P indexes include only selected stocks, whose performance is viewed as representative of the entire market.
Note: Recorded with “indices” and not “indexes”. My coach is in a Commonwealth country.Hi Salma,
I only listened to the pre-boarding announcement. You sound like you are acting, but in this case, you should be very very casual. Imagine being in an airline terminal. Or maybe do a practice recording there.
Wish you successHi Christophe,
Good voice in general. Technical aspects of the recording are fine.
You need to work on varying it a bit.
Quality Inn: Make the first sentence a tad more formal, but the whole sentence. The second sentence should be informal, and I mean the whole sentence, not just “Bob”. Say “We’ll see you there” like you are saying so long to somebody, maybe with a very very slight country accent.
No: Your voice was the same throughout. On the no part, I might talk like a kid, like a bit frustrated (not a faux child voice). Take your time a bit more. And then, like a lightbulb goes off, come up with the yes – the Great Adventure. Best thing since sliced bread.
Trendi – ah, this is your wheelhouse read. Only thing I would change is to stress the #1.
Wish you success!Hi Stacey,
Recording quality is fine, I heard no problem. Only minor quibble is – I would vary the energy in the list in the second sentence. Lists are boring.
Wish you successSandals – I heard some reverb, you might want to check your space.
The read was at the same emotional level throughout. Vary it. “Somewhere in the Caribbean” should be wondering, and then “5 star luxury resorts” should sound like you are enjoying a wonderful item of food. And then “all included” should be like a mother saying “I’m going to take care of you”.
Wish you success, Ondrea, and welcome back !
