I loved your energy throughout; the ups and downs between the words sounded exciting and kept me engaged. I really like the small build-up on the ending, too.I did notice quite a few plosives that could be felt, so I would reccomend getting a pop filter if you don't already have one.

HW REVIEW

Excellent work with your projection. I can really hear you working your diaphragm to push that air out to carry your voice over the crowd you are meant to be projecting to!

You maintain a good grasp over your breath control throughout most of the read. That said, there's a few spots where you begin to strain your breath a little, namely at the end of some sentences. This is likely the kickback from your projection from the start of the script that slowly starts to tire you out, and it will improve as you continue working on your stamina with the daily breathing exercises.

Thank you for keeping your fumbles in! Keep in mind that when you stumble on a script, you can stop and recover yourself and start the read again from the earliest pause or at the beginning of the sentence so you (or the engineer) can edit the audio appropriately.

I had a lot of fun listening to this read! Excited to hear your next submission!

EXTRA side note for you!

Be mindful of your mic when you are pushing out a lot of air. Your recording has a lot of "plosives" in it. You're pushing out that air very strongly (which is good as it's helping your project!, and this can result in it "punching" your mic and creating "boom" or "pop" sounds in your audio which usually can't be edited out without distorting the quality of the recording.

Avoid plosives by using a pop filter, angling your mic or yourself so that your breath isn't directly hitting the mic, and/or using a pencil (or a even a finger) and hold it in front of your mouth (like a "shush") to break the air before it hits the mic.
