Hey ShellyMadison! Loved the Rome2 read! I was about to comment on Rome1 and then heard the second take and thought “yup! That’s the one”.

Great read

Hi All,

Here are two more practice reads. My attempt here was to try and sound more natural without sounding like I’m reading from the script. Any and all feedback is welcomed, as always.

Thanks in advance

Thanks marioh5! I tell ya…I searched three different ads for the correct pronunciation, mostly leaning towards the European way of saying it, but I’ll do a few more searches to see if there’s a common thread.

Will check the edit again as well, as I may need to reduce some audio peaks in certain places.

Hello friends,

Here are two more practice reads (Jaguar, and Jack Daniels) for my narration/commercial practice. I’ll be scheduling my first demo soon, so want to make sure I’m progressing in the right direction. Any and all feedback will be helpful. Thanks in advance

Hey Marioh5,both were interesting reads, and I like how clear your diction is in each. For “Motivation-meditation”, the biggest take away for me is sounding like you sympathize, with the scared listener. So maybe using a bit more emotion to convey the feeling of sympathizing with being scared

Hey Cheechman, 2-2 sounds the best to me of the three. Sounds like you gave it more energy while still retaining your natural voice. Take #3 sounds like you want to give more energy but at the cost of maybe losing your natural voice. However, I do like the attention of detail you give to each word, in all 3 takes. That’s something that I struggle with for sure.

Here’s a few more reads from my narration session. Any and all feedback is welcomed (thanks in advance)

Hey verderbert90! Off the bat, the “advanced technologies” read sounded very natural, and your tone was great as well. I see where you were going for the wiseman narrations. For those, I’m wondering if you can even play more with pitch/tone.

[Thomas_D]

Hi djmetzner! Liked how even you kept the pitch and tone throughout the recording. I feel like it’s hard not to change pitch/tone when doing a documentary read, but thought you did a great job here.

[Thomas_D]

Ha! I love this. This is a very creative approach and one that I haven’t heard before. Would you classify your voice as a “jazzy” voice?

I’m also curious if bios are typically this long in length as well.

Overall, great read!
