Second Shot... Trying To Sound More Natural

Matthew Hinman

OK. Back to the drawing board. I listened to some more stuff, read some more posts, loosened up a bit more. But, I'm not even convincing myself at this point. I need some constructive criticism here. I know Robert and others will hit me over the head hard, right guys? Please listen and tell me where I'm off track... (And for those who heard my first post, sorry. For those who haven't, don't bother.)

I'm not going to hit you over the head hard, Matthew. What kind of an ogre do you think I am?
I will, however give you a noogie; a mild little head rub.
You've made advances; it's better by quite a bit.
I only wonder what possessed you to lead with - or even include - the first bit, where you're Triple T : tentative, timid, and tongue-tied.
The others suit you pretty darn well, Matt.
Now you just need a couple of more clips with which to work, a zippier mix, a little more OOMPh in the read, and you'll be heading around the first turn.
Hang in, Matt. You done good.
I salute your tenacity. And progress.
Voice On!

No, Robert, you're not an ogre - I appreciate your candor. I rearranged the clips with what I though was my best sound first, and dropped that other first one entirely. Perhaps tomorrow I'll have time to do some re-voicing.

I'm determined to get it right.
