Great job getting through the script, Xio! However, I’d recommend spending more time practicing the script before recording next time. There were a few word trip-ups that could have been avoided with a bit more familiarity with the copy. The more you practice and get comfortable with the script, the smoother your read will flow. By taking the time to fully understand the lines, you can avoid stumbles and deliver a more seamless performance.

Your articulation and diction are important here, especially since your accent can sometimes make it easy for words to get lost. Focus on enunciating clearly so that every word comes through sharp and clear. Think of how Peter would feel at different moments in the script to help you find the right dynamics. When Peter is sad, slow down and let the emotion come through in your delivery. On the other hand, when he’s happy, add a big smile and let that enthusiasm show in your voice. It’s the contrast in emotions that will make the performance stand out.

Lastly, remember that there’s no need to rush through the script. If you make a mistake, take a moment, reset, and start again. Sometimes, a second take can sound even better than the first, and it’s okay to give yourself the space to find the best read. You’re doing a solid job, and with a bit more attention to pacing, articulation, and emotional depth, you’ll continue to improve. Keep practicing, and great work!
