bruce ... listening now (mostly for inspiration and as a good start to the day!). lots of range, just-the-best voice.
the end piece with its production elements stands out for me. move it up?
i so like listening to you.

Bruce,

Your demo just doesn't work for me. Can you do a job later today?

Actually, the demo brilliant. This is an example of a true "great" in our industry. Thank you for sharing (I am so jealous),

Bruce, it's awesome. One tiny comment - in the medical one, in the phrase following "keyhole technique" - your word/syllable emphases sound kind of random, as if you're reading the words without understanding them or caring about them. You might slow that one down a bit and say the words more clearly. Apart from that, it's terrific!

I am soooo glad you said that...

Bret · Guest

People tell me all the time, "GO LISTEN TO GOOD DEMOS!" / "FIND DEMOS ON VOICEBANK!!!" / "LISTEN TO WHAT'S GOOD AND FIGURE OUT WHY IT'S GOOD!!!" / "SPEAK IN CAPITAL LETTERS AND USE PLENTY OF EXCLAMATION MARKS!!!!!"

The decidedly URGENT nature of these suggestions aside, many of us newbies are left to sift through thousands of VoiceBank demos that may not be so "good." Some of them are decades old, some of them are barely audible, some of them are poorly categorized, some of them are from retired talent, some of them don't make sense, some sound poorly produced. My response to all the suggestions about demos is, "Wait, where are the beautiful demos?"

But I've just had an epiphany! THIS is what people are talking about when they refer to a GREAT demo.

A GREAT demo is something you enjoy listening to! Cheers to that, Bruce!

Bruce.... wow. This is truly a special gift you have!

Bret - you might want to listen to demos from certain agents on voicebank... such as those from Atlas Talent and Vox in LA.

Great demo Bruce! Just a shade long in my honest opinion, but when it's a good as your voice is, people will keep listening.
