You did well with your articulation, ensuring that your words were clear and understandable. To enhance your performance further, try increasing your volume to improve your projection. Picture yourself speaking to someone on the far side of a large gymnasium without any microphone—this will give you a sense of how loud and clear you need to be.
Taking in more air will help you sustain your voice and provide the necessary energy for projection. Practice breathing deeply and using your diaphragm to support your voice. This will help you avoid rushing through your lines due to a lack of breath and maintain a steady, powerful delivery.
Additionally, adding variety to your performance is key. Experiment with different inflections, pacing, and emotional nuances to keep your audience engaged. Think about how you want your listener to feel and how they might react to your delivery from a distance. Keeping these factors in mind will help you deliver a more dynamic and impactful performance.
Continue practicing and listen back to your recordings to pinpoint areas for improvement. This self-evaluation will help you refine your skills and make adjustments where necessary. Your commitment to improving is evident, and with continued practice, you’ll see even greater results. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for your feedback! I was very concerned about how loud taking a breath would record and that’s evident in this recording :)
