Hi Kathy – great read! This is one of the best reads I have heard from you! It flowed very well, was relaxed and also conversational, which made it fun to listen to and be educated by. And now I am picturing a smartphone-sized squirrel flying through the air 🙂 I liked the pacing and pitch throughout, very good!

Merry Christmas, we’ll see you when you get back.

Hi Official81! I use the Voice Recorder app on my Android. I too email the file to myself (it saves it as a .mp3), save to my computer then upload to the website. Hope this helps!

Hi SLJones, thanks for the feedback! I agree too that there should be a slight pause after “baby’s still alive”, good catch. This is not my natural accent, but one I’ve heard and can somewhat mimic, at least for a script like this that has some emotion involved. Thanks again!

Hi RYoung, thanks for the feedback! Thanks for the suggestion to try different characters, it definitely helps bring out a different feel to the read. Glad too that it sounds like it could be realistic. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback Kathy! It’s interesting to take on the role of another character for me, having not come from the acting world. It is fun however! I have not seen Million Dollar Baby (mainly because I heard it has a sad ending), but I heard that Hillary did a fantastic job. The Terminator movies are so fun, if you like sci-fi and the perennial good vs. evil battle. I highly recommend! I always wanted to be Sarah Connor growing up – she’s a super tough bad*** 🙂

Hi GJS, great reads! Your voice is really nice, warm, and rich and seems really well-suited for these commercials. Really nice clarity and pacing for all 3.
Script 1: Good read but maybe a tiny bit slow overall
Script 2: I like this one the best, and I liked the variation in the characters (ghouls, vampires, etc.). This sounded really authentic for you
Script 3: This was good, with good variation in the lists and having a ton that would appeal to kids.

Overall really good!

Hi Lexi, you are welcome! Pacing is tricky, really depends on the script for me. I look forward to hearing more from you!

Hi Breckolin! Very good read! You have a nice authoritative tone which was really appropriate for this. Great clarity, pacing and flow. Really nice!

Hi SL Jones, nice read! I agree with the tone of how you read it, the character sounds resigned to the reality of how things are happening to her. Good work!
