Julie H, One of Studio Center's Voiceover Talents Brings You This Tuesday Talent Tip

One thing you're going to see a lot on a lot of different scripts in the specs is non announcer, conversational. This is hard to do as a voiceover talent because we read our scripts. The goal is to make reading the scripts sound like you're talking to a real person. So my tip, imaging someone in your life that you would be talking to about this product, this promo, this event, whatever it is. Imagine a real person. I do auditions all the time imagining, "Well, how would I tell my husband about this?" How would that be different if I were to tell my sister about it, or my best friend from high school about it? Imagine a real-life person. Add those little nuances that you have in your voice when you're talking to a real human being like the sighs, and the ah-huh, and the hmmms. Those things are great little additions to the script that you've been given that bring that script to life.
