WOW!!

I had no idea you had this kind of range! Really, really, really, good. Great diversity, rich, deep voices, perfect accents.... I love it. And it really moves along which is wonderful. Never a dull moment!

Bravo Lance, this is awesome!

Great stuff Lance!

As a production guy, I do have one minor nit to pick on the editing of the piece as a whole... there were a number of spots where the transitions were rather harsh and I could hear a click where one clip ended and the next began. It sounds like it was done on a 2 track editor as opposed to multi-track. I don't know what your production background is but if you like I'd be happy to help.

But, again, it's a minor nit.... I really enjoyed the performances and I like the pacing and sequence of the demo.

Thanks...It was done on a multi track editor, but I the pieces are just slammed/snapped together on one stereo track. I wanted to get some feedback before I polished it off.

I had a feeling it was a rough draft but wanted to mention it just in case... sorry if I offended, wasn't sure what your production/editing background was.

Ah, no offense at all you were very helpful and tactful and that's the very sort of input I was looking for.

Lance, for the first time ever, I wish I was all thumbs. So I could give you 11 thumbs up. (Don't ask)

I'm with Melba! I didn't hear a click or a single-solitary-thing that was out of place.... This *%&$!)* ROCKS! All thumbs up.

Very, very, nice. And an inspiration to the rest of us who wish we had the chops for character.....

Great demo!

I wish I had more versatility like that. I only have a couple.

Nice work, Lance!

Thanks for the comments, it means a lot coming from each of you.

Chris was right, I found a whole bunch of nastiness in there that I believe have been pruned (I knew there was some, but man). Is it good to go now?

Transitions are definitely smoother... but I still hate it Wink

Yeah, that's much better... sounds fantastic! And like I said before, the content and delivery is a home run... lots of range and versatility on display and it really flows together well.

Good, good stuff! 2 daumen hoch
