Just read the comments in the previous video about the narrator. I can't give any tips on narration (although I really like Shannons demos and tutorials = personal opinion, sorry new guy), but I've checked the sound files on the last to videos and have something else to contribute. So, here's a tip from an ex audio engineer: Don't ever remove the pauses and replace them with "complete silence" when editing spoken word sound files. Humans aren't used to that kind of silence - especially that abrupt and that frequently. When a listener uses headphones this experience can be extra harsh and some people can get anxiety or nauseous. (That's no joke, but experience.) Aim for a natural recording environment like a small room. Even this room has a sound which sounds very different from the "insert silence" button in your audio app of choice.
Hey Patrick! Thanks for the tip, that’s actually really helpful. Would recording some white noise then placing it underneath help? I typically include music in my personal videos, but these are a little different.
@@LonelyManBGs That be no real fix. You still have the hard cuts and the audible pressure difference just on a 'sound bed'. Just remember it for the next recording.

LovelyManBG's :D

Just a heads up, the video mentions linking a conflicting skills sheet, but that the link wasn't added to the video description.
Thank you! Link now added to video description.
I just looked for the conflicting skills sheet and it is no longer there. Bad link. Can you please repost it?
