It's crucial that we hear your natural voice, so please avoid using any filters that might alter its quality. During your read, it was noticeable that there was a mix-up with the script—remember, it's "quality value STYLES," not "quality value SALES." This highlights the importance of thoroughly familiarizing yourself with the script before you start recording to avoid errors and ensure your delivery is smooth and confident. Something important to note is when you stumble, don't be afraid to pause and take right back from the start of the sentence versus powering through.
While your character's voice is engaging, the essence of voice acting lies in the acting itself, not just the voice quality. Focus on bringing the character to life through your performance, emphasizing emotional expression and interaction over vocal effects alone. You're not just a random salesman; you really care about these pencil sharpers, and you're determined to share this with the world! Also, there seems to be room for improvement in your breath control; at times, it sounds like you’re running out of air, which can disrupt the flow and impact of your narration. Working on this will help maintain a steady, strong delivery throughout your read.
Despite these areas for improvement, your projection is commendable and effectively conveys your message. Keep working on these aspects, and your performances will become more polished and impactful.
