In the first session together, we will look at the ads already in your voice portfolio, choose a range of styles and additional scripts for your reel and make sure you know what your money voice is, as well as that all important practice on the microphone. Using professional recording equipment you will listen back to your ads and hear how small physical changes and directions can have massive effects on your voice quality and believability.

 

Through the following session, we will continue to test and prepare your ad choices, stretching the range of styles of your voice and giving you real confidence in what you are going to record. You’ll continue to work on sight-reading skills and responding to client direction too, so that when your reel is a success, you’ll be completely ready for this exciting industry. There will even be a chance to practise voice-to-picture (timing your voice to the visual ad on a monitor), so that nothing in the professional studio environment can throw you.

 

Finally, in our last session together, we will test record and polish your chosen ads. I will cut the best takes together in a basic edit before sending to a West End engineer to feedback on.

 

The three sessions are spread over a number of weeks as they’ll be plenty of homework/preparation to do in between to make sure you are as prepared as possible. Between sessions, you’ll have three 30min zoom tutorials, to analyse the recordings you send me between sessions, to make sure you are staying on track with your work and to explore the best ways to market your finished reel. In the final skype tutorial, we'll also talk through the feedback from the studio engineers and make any final tweaks to your scripts.

​

I'll then put you in touch with the engineer so you can arrange your recording date. The Voice Zone has secured a top deal of only £375 for your 2 hour recording session, copyright free music and the detailed edit, mix eq and master of your final fast, punchy killer commercial reel.
