Here's the old that everyone said was missing the emotional connection.

Now here's the new.

Is it better? Worse? Still not quite there?

I don't know what anybody else thinkgs, but that bit kills me every time.

JK,

Smooth out the first cut... it is still too staccato for me. Essentially the first cut is one long, long, long run-on sentence - one thought - with only a couple of pauses for effect.

Other than that... I like it better than the first.

Tightened it up a bit, Frank. Thanks for the suggestion!

And a big thanks to DB, who spent a good half hour on the phone with me going over some exercises and doing some fantastic coaching. She's a superstar and if you have a chance to study with her, do it.

So if you think this reel is an improvement over the other one, that's due to DB. If you don't, then it's all me to blame. Smile
