Nice job Parker!

Your pacing was good and you had great variations in inflections. I noticed on the word “forgotten” you pronounced the “t”s as “d”s. I want you to make sure you are pronouncing them as the proper sounds throughout the script. Great job changing the pacing of your sentences. Adding some pace variation will keep your audience engaged in what you are saying. Remember to keep in mind who your audience is. You described that you would be talking to your own child. When you read a script I want you to picture who exactly you are talking to. If you are talking to your child it may sound more casual and thoughtful. A way to add some realism to your read is to remember that when we speak to someone without a script, we don’t know exactly what words we are going to say next. So drawing out a word while you “think” of the next word can give a sense of it coming naturally from your mind. Overall, you did a great job!
