Tips To Help You Improve Your Voice Over Skills

By Helen Perry


If you have ever attended an audition for a voice role, you may have noticed that judges always opt for the participant with an unrivaled vocal symmetry. There is a lot that goes into getting a perfect pitch. While one individual may have it easy doing so, a different person may lack this natural gift. If you fall in the latter category, take note of the useful voice over skills enhancement steps below.

For starters, strive to improve your clarity when speaking. Make sure your listeners can hear you well. Essentially, your train of thought should appear uninterrupted. To improve on this aspect, avoid speaking rapidly. Ensure a typical listener can discern your words with ease. You should also avoid very slow speaking as this may cause an otherwise interesting topic to become boring.

Exuding confidence during speech is also vital. When doing an audio advert for a promotion, the level of interest that listeners will portray is dependent on the confidence your tone gives. A speaker who uses many filler words in his speech is unlikely to get his point across.

Confidence shows that you are not just trying to rip people off. Filler words are commonly used when a speaker forgets a section of his speech. Do whatever it takes to exude a sense of excitement and knowledge on the subject at hand. This is one way top radio personalities draw large audiences.

One can never downplay the significance of research when it comes to performing audio roles. Ensuring you have a great grasp of the message of the day is always a plus. For instance, it is prudent to study about engines and the overall performance indicators of an automobile if doing an advert about one. If by any chance you fail to do so, you may not understand any of the technical jargon you come across. If you appear clueless, you create a bad impression for yourself. Before speaking into that microphone, try and imagine the expectations you would have if you were the listener.

Good bodily care is also vital when it comes to keeping your vocals great. Avoid exerting excessive strain on yourself. Limit the number of instances you shout to the best of you ability. When you are watching a match and your favorite team emerges victorious, ensure your celebration does not leave you sounding hoarse. If this is not possible, complete your recording project beforehand.

Drink sufficient water too. This way, your throat will never run dry. Moreover, retire to bed early so as to get sufficient sleep.

Practicing on a daily basis will always make you good at what you do, regardless of what that is. A footballer who is at the highest point in his career can only attribute his success on the pitch to practice above all else. This also applies to you. Ensure you schedule your practice sessions regularly if you want success. When you get up in the morning, spend a few minutes practicing while showering or when getting ready for the day in front of the mirror.
