Hey, hey—great job making it through the script! The first thing that stood out to me was your projection. Knowing you a bit more, I can tell you were leaning into a narration style, which does sound really good and highlights your natural voice. However, remember that this particular script is meant to feel like you’re speaking in a gym full of people. Setting the scene and making the delivery believable for the context is key. Imagine where you are exactly in the space and how your voice needs to fill the room—strong projection is essential to sell that environment. You’ve got a great foundation, so just push yourself to make it more dynamic and fitting for the setting.
I also want to acknowledge and appreciate that you left your mistakes in. That’s a great habit, as it shows your process and how you handle challenges in real-time. When you stumble on a word, you’ve developed a strong habit of taking a quick pause and going back to the beginning of the word, which is excellent. It’s a professional way to recover and keeps the flow intact. That said, there were a few moments where you seemed to power through the stumbles instead, and this caused a slight dip in energy. While it wasn’t a major issue, it’s something to be mindful of. If you ever find yourself tripping over a word, don’t be afraid to take a big, reactive breath to reset yourself. That breath can help you recharge and regain control, ensuring your energy stays consistent.
Your narration voice is clearly a strength, and it’s wonderful to hear how polished it already sounds. Now, the next step is to continue pushing yourself to expand your range and versatility. Becoming a jack of all trades in voice-over means being able to adapt to different styles, tones, and settings seamlessly. You’re well on your way, and I’m excited to see you continue to grow and take on new challenges!
Keep up the great work—you’re doing fantastic! Oh, and PS: Meagan adjusted your scripts, so check that out and get back to me and If someone else is reading this feedback, then shhhhhhhhhhhh🤫 it's a secret.
