Turning Voice-Over Worries Into ‘Wonderful’

·        “Sorry, I slipped on that. Sorry. I gotta concentrate. That was stupid…” – trips, slips and stumbled are natural with a new script. Instead: Slow down, take a breath and concentrate and remember it’ll take a few reads to get the rhythm and the writer’s intended meaning. Ask a producer if they’d prefer you to carry on after any slip, or go back and do that sentence again, or the whole paragraph. Remember: You’re not booked because you’re perfect at doing the greatest read straight off the page. You’re booked because your voice is right for the brand and the message.
