As always....you're the REAL deal!! I have landed SOOOOO much work since I first heard these words of advice from you and implemented them! Thanks Bill....You're the BEST!
Thanks Bill for the reminder that when someone hears my demo, they should experience a broad spectrum of my personality and emotions. This is a golden nugget of truth.
I have always just been the guy who has done it for friends and friends of friends but never thought about using my voice as a source of income. Thank you for sharing so much valuable information.
Great advice and awesome demo. When it comes to avoiding projecting your voice, someone once said to me that you should treat a microphone as if you were talking into someones ear and this will help prevent you talking to loudly (unless its intentional and you have to talk a bit louder) as you can probably guess that someone taking loudly into your ear close up, would sound unpleasant and you wouldn't want to listen to them, but if they were talking at a normal volume, then their voice would sound fine to listen too.
I am just starting my voice over career (neutral spanish speaker) and I know that sometimes I read an script louder than It should be. When I read no too loud and not too quiet, My reads fells more confident but I have to battle with the right pronunciation of some words with S, R and N (I do not know why this happen to me). Somedays ago, I started to correct it and now I´ve been doing it better, but now, I have more VO work since I understand what you said in one of your videos that was named "The art of the pause". I also understood that people mostly like natural voices. I have a baritone-bass voice but people most like more my mid-range tone (friendly and smiley voice) ´cause It engaged or it´s more confortable to listen. Anyway, you´re pretty right on what you are saying. I never forget the art of the pause, It really helped me to engaged people to my reads. This is a good video too. Thanks.
@Dobry Dool Do you go through TONS of youtube videos and post this VERY SAME thing??????? Because I've seen this SAME FUCKING thing in various other videos. This Ailyahwan Easy BULLSHIT page is pure garbage. I've seen this Not only it doesn't exists, it is COMPLETELY BOGUS!!!!! Scammers like you should be banned out of youtube ALTOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can you please do a video, walking us through your eq process? I think what really gets us is the fact that we know that people is around so we becomes scared of speaking itself, in the case of sounding weird to someone.
Hey, I was the 7,777th person to view this! Listened to the first 7 minutes and I am absolutely positive that the key to voicing audio books is presented here! In the spirit of what I heard Bill refer to as "spreading the love", I immediately went to a novel I'd recorded earlier and marked up the appropriate, obserevable emotions. Mystical, adventurous, excited and hopefully in the first 20 lines! And how fun is that?
Bill- I have been in the Broadcasting business over the years. I am just getting started in the voice over business. I just wanted to say, you are an "invaluable" resource for the business. I am so impressed with you and what you have to say. These words sum it up. You are incredible!!! Thanks for all the free advise. I wish I could pay you back!
Not just voiceover Bill, but also in how to present yourself in front of a camera lens. I struggle with this all of the time and find it difficult to portray the ‘real me’ once that camera is going. Thanks for this.
TIL that it's actually slowing down during a script read AND love that cover over a multitude of sins, lol. I'll definitely be keeping my speed, intensity, and projection in mind as I practice and experimenting to see the differences that each of them make. Good stuff. Edit: Bummer that emotionally diverse demo wasn't linked to, but I see videos of demos on your channel that will do.
I'm so glad I listened to you! I'm working on a video for my website, this makes me feel so much more calm and confident. You are a great communicator!
Thank you, Bill. These are excellent tips and help me (as a person with a radio background) better understand that there is a world of difference between simply reading or announcing and voice acting. Great stuff.
Thanks Bill. As always, you have provided an invaluable tool into my learning curve to script reading. I have taken your advice and have created a fresh script to practice with using these techniques. I hear the improvement already.
You may be part German - they hold up those 3 fingers for the number three (Americans hold up the middle 3 fingers). Great video. These pearls of wisdom will adorn my computer screen on a side note. But could you wear a different shirt next time? (light reflection) . Thanks again Bill!
Hey Bill is there a laptop that will eliminate the need for a preamp. I move 3 to 5 times a year for my business. I do well at the business I have chosen. People that I deal with daily have asked if I do radio or commercials. I WANT IN! I want to be a personality with the skills to win auditions. I want to be the "voice" of something spectacular. Can you help me achieve that?
Ooooooo, I see now. But, Bill. How long that this kind of job is not taken over by robot? Thank you for sharing this video to make us aware of things needed.
LMAO when he was like projection is not how you talk to a human... all I could think about is that is EXACTLY how all cubans talk to one another. Standing 3 inches apart. It's just how we talk hahahaha
Speed? More clients want fast speed to include more info... unfortunatelly.... Faster faster... I always hear it during recording :-(( Greetings from Poland.

"Most people read faster than they communicate". That was GOLDEN Bill!
