Reposting my latest with a smaller file size.
1.) When I was experiencing depression, I couldn’t get out of bed or focus on anything. My goals and dreams drifted away. I got my life back with the help of a support group of people who had been where I was. They helped me see that my life wasn’t limited. Visit support-helps-dot-org to learn more. We’ve been there. We can help.

Hey everyone! Just uploaded a couple of practice reads. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi cammons01! The American Airlines read started off great! It sounded welcoming and comfortable. The very, very end sounded rushed.
When you’re reading a list (for example, “your flight, your destination AND the equipment…”), it’s been suggested to me to not exaggerate the “and” so as not to draw too much attention to it and rather focus on the other words in the list. You can also vary the tone of your voice for each word in the list. This is feedback I’ve received and am working on this myself. I hope that helps!

Great voice. Some mouth noises at the start of breathes to watch out for. At :12, and I think :20 for example. Maybe slow down just a tad to make it more conversational.

Hey, everyone. I used to post a lot of recordings before this website had been revamped. So this will be my first recording in three years. I found a copy on this website. I basically tried to memorize the script to see if it would make it sound more authentic. The copy seemed eerie to me so I went for a darker take.
In this world, there is real evil.
In the darkest shadows and in the most ordinary places.
These are the true stories of the innocent and the unimaginable.
Between the things we see and the things we fear, there are doors.
When they are opened,
Nightmares become reality.-
I liked the tone of your voice and how you delivered it. However, one slight mistake you made was that you said “imaginable”, rather than “unimaginable”. Maybe you could also try highlighting some more key words, like doors. Great job overall.

Hello, Im practicing my VO and would love some feedback. I know my audio is terrible but aside from that please let me know how Im doing with my narration vocals. If you can please me know how Im doing with: my diction and articulation, my pacing, delivery, and if my voice matches this narration script.
I understand that I sound pretty young and youthful but I am almost 30yrs old, and after getting used to hearing my own voice, Im still trying to find my niche. Thanks!

You have a very pleasant voice. The diction and articulation seem right about where they should be though the volume seemed a bit low. Is it normalized to -3db?

You have a nice soft voice thats youthful.
Risewell:
I would be careful when pronouncing client’s products as I believe Risewell is mispronounced it sounds like you’re saying rinse well. There are lots of pauses in between your read which makes it a little awkward to listen to you can remove spaces with your editing so everything is combined and sounds smoother.Type 2 Learn:
This was a very cute read, You gave this read good energy and the pace was on spot for instructional. I would just be mindful of the dead spaces in between your reads. Keep it up!-
I really appreciate your feedback. I was actually saying rinsewell and didnt know it, so thanks for catching that! I will keep the pauses in mind as well, I was told to slow down my pace, so Im still finding that balance but I will definitely be practicing my audio edits by editing out those pauses.

Hi Alli,
I think Gill gave you some great advice. I heard the same things she was talking about in both narrations. You’re pauses are long in places and it does create some confusion… it’s like is she done, oh nope… not done there’s more. Also, there were a few times you pronounced “the” more like “duh” your th sound is coming out like a d in a few places.
One last little note… can you turn up the gain on your microphone? Your recordings were very quiet and whenever a listener turns up the volume they’re going to hear a little extra noise. -

Hi all! I’m looking for feedback for my 1st practice recording, any & all feedback is greatly appreciated!

Great work on knocking out your first practice recording. Voice fits it really nice. Consider adding a change in pitch/inflection when listing different things separated by a comma. A couple mouth clicks but no distracting large breaths which is good. There is a change in volume at I believe 0:18 where you begin describing the tabs. You may have changed position with the microphone at that point. I have noticed I’ll do that sometimes when I get animated and start acting out what I’m saying and inadvertently look towards something else and the change in positioning is noticeable in the recording. Different mics are more susceptible as mine is. But, now that I’ve gone long winded, nice work!

Nice strong introduction on your first practice read. I agree with RBenesVO when you get to a list of items try to vary them instead of just reading across the board. As your read speed increased your diction slurs when you say tour it sounds like chore. Once again when you have common words such as Use try to vary them and as you give instructions slow your pace instead of speeding it up. Keep it up!

Hey Marioh,
Congrats on your first practice recording. I agree with both RBenes and Gill. This was a great first post! A couple of things I noticed was (as RBenes noted) a fluctuation in your volume (probably moving around the mic). A biggy though is the mispronunciation of arboretum you pronounced it ar-bor-ay-tum and it should be ar-bor-ee-tum. If you are unsure of pronunciation, most online dictionaries will provide pronunciations as well. Hey, it happens to all of us. I got busted on a word today. I was pronouncing it with a mid-west dialectal sound which is great in the mid-west, but its pronouced differently every where else. Also, when you said “scroll” it sounded to me like you were saying “shcroll” both times you said it.
Keep it up man. It only gets better with practice!
