Hello all,
I wanted to share a recording of my narrating the first chapter of Lee Child’s “Killing Floor” before I go ahead with working on an audiobook demo.

I have attached a segment from the first Jack Reacher novel, “Killing Floor” by Lee Child. Please let me know what you think about my narration progress so far.

Thank you Michael for your critique of my First Animation Demo Reel! It was fun performing those characters. I put the most effort into my 1st character, with the weapons contracts. Speaking with the British Cockney dialect got rid of my speech problem. I enjoyed making the Mcfatty’s commercial to be funny. I’ll see if I can reorganize my Demo characters. Maybe add another character in my tonal range, perhaps?

In the performance of “Sound Stories June”, I am 1 or 2 Henchmen of the Japanese Yakuza mob. I use my Deeper register to swear, curse, and speak English as well as Japanese. That was me.

I was hired to perform, “The Isolated speech of N”, tired at midnight. As for my performance, yes, I struggle with something and I have lisps and stutters with the S and Th. My R’s are just fine though.

Thanks for the advice and positively honest critique.

[SuperLuke]

Also, I would like an honest critique of how well I performed these 2 roles for clients.

Hello everyone on the Edge Studio Feedback Forum. Attached is my First Animation Voiceover Demo Reel that I created with Edge Studios last year. Special thanks to Jay Snyder for his excellent coaching and for helping me create this. I have been auditioning every day for voiceover work with this as my “calling card”, scoring 9 roles. Please feel free to have a listen and tell me what you think about it.

Thanks,
-Luke Herbel

I really enjoyed your character Demo, it suits your voice better than commercial reads.

[SuperLuke]

Good clarity of voice! For a commercial read, this performance would need to be spoken a little faster. Maybe work on Pace, Speed, Breath Support, and be your natural self, like on overdrive with more energy to the performance?

[SuperLuke]

I enjoy hearing your voice in this performance. Good background music, giving the listener a feel for the kind of performance you are trying to go for. It sounds like you were cut off from your script sample at the very end though.

Hello everyone in the Feedback Forum. Now that my first animation demo is completed, I’m working on my narration skills and building muscle memory for being different characters on the spot for audiobooks. Please feel free to have a listen as I narrate the first Jack Reacher novel, ‘Killing Floor” by Lee Child. Comments and critiques are more than welcome.

I agree with JM Saunders about the American Airline recording sounding more like your regular voice. It sounds more realistic and believable than your “Theif” recording. In the voiceover world, we aim to sound realistic and believable.
