As suggested by Jamie, I recorded a new clip and replaced the first one. As always, would love honest feedback. 😊
Hi Aislynn
Much better opening clip! I would agree with nick that it was hard to make out "mud" or Blood" at the beginning. I think base note of the backing music hit on the first word and it muffled it out, or it could be an overly aggressive gate, if you're using one. I would just say that from the start of "enthusiastic storytelling..." your voice stays on the same pitch for a few too many words without modulating pace of the words coming out. It sounds like you got stuck. But a couple of little tweaks and it would be a great display of your bright and friendly voice.

Michele, quick question about being more "forward"; do you mean more forward in my mic placement (closer to my mic) or in my mouth/voice placement?I mean more forward in the mix, so it stands out better - but yes maybe it's mic placement, but you could also increase the volume a bit or compress it a little more before you mix in the music and amplify the whole thing

Sounding great Aislynn - really enjoyed that. I agree with all the comments about the variety and some great choices to demonstrate your range. My personal preference is for shorter clips, on the basis that once someone has heard that you can do a certain voice, move on to keep attention - I'm thinking of your Better Help clip and the voice in the head, possibly too many lines here, maybe sacrifice a couple to up the pace/flow of the reel? Maybe that's just me. The Oxyclean has a lovely contrasting energy - but I did wonder whether it was 'mud' or 'blood' right at the very start. And the Kayak piece - that's my favourite but I agree with Michele to push the contrast more (between the zen and the exploration lines too) and maybe more pace/energy at the end?

Lovely variety here Aislynn! You could probably push the zipwire part a but further - I know its hard in a home studio but it does sound like you're holding back a bit. I also noticed the bump at the end of the first clip, and you could also try a small crossfade into the 'weekend of zen' clip as the volume goes all the way to zero which is distracting. I'd say your voice also isn't forward enough, especially on the first clip. Clip 2 is much better. Compare the volume with some professionally produced reels and hopefully you should be able to hear what I mean. But overall this is shaping up really nicely
