Previously, I posted my Commercial Demo Reel and received good feedback from this VO-BB community, although, not always in a positive vein. Nonetheless, I've accepted each critique as a plus. One must often learn from others since others often see/hear what we cannot.

I've herein provided my new Narration Demo Reel for appraisal.
You'll find it at: http://www.vo-bb.com/demos/SandyGreenbergNarr.mp3

Thanks to those who care to respond.

Hi Sandy,

I liked it. Some nit-picky observations. I heard a little distortion in the next to last cut...possibly mp3 related? Music levels on most cuts could be a tad hotter, Otherwise...the piece as a whole sounds pretty solid to me.

Sandy:

I'm trying to put my finger on what I find awkward about this demo.

And awkward does not always equal bad.

I think it’s the pacing of the read.

"...Brian Miller, has stopped..." the comma in the script seemed sounded to me like youhit the brakes or edited out a breath for too long a time (and I know it’s a millisecond too long but I "felt" the pause and I shouldn't)

On applied water management, "welcome to applied water management..." doesn't have the smile required by the copy. It doesn't have to sound pukey but I should hear more smile. "...to our community <comma or breath here, not sure which> is essential.." again, awkward.

I think these small but to me very noticeable "misses" are also very fixable.

I hope this makes sense and if you'd like to call me about it I'd be glad to chat with you on it.

I hope this helps.
