Hey, guys. I have updated my voice acting demo and I'm coming to you again to seek your advice. Be as candid as you can. No ego involved here. At least not as much that can be hurt.

Thanks. You've all have always been very good to me, and your time is always appreciated.

Hey buddy! You are really talented! But the demo feels redundant. Just several versions of the same thing over and over. None of it bad. Just needs more variety. Better to have 30 seconds of brilliant than another minute of redundancy. And I'd love to hear more acting/interacting. Find ways to add adjustments with each character so the listener can hear where you can take the performance. But again, the talent is there!!!!!!

Hey Daniel,

I listened to your demo and I have to say the things that came to mind were the Lord of the Rings and Dragonball Z. I think you have great acting ability but it just seems to me personally, that your voices all sound very similar to a specific theme like I mentioned above. I'm not sure if you were going for themed voices or not, that's just what it sounded like to me. Keep moving forward!

Hey, Colin, thanks for the compliment, and you're very right. I'm am steadily building a variegated character list. As we do until we check out.

Hope you're well.

-Daniel

Bob, thanks again for stepping in. Advice was noted then, and has been applied. I still need to give it more 'reacting', but this is what I'm presenting in the coming weeks until updated again as soon as I can churn it out.

I hope you're doing well.

-Daniel

I'm not qualified to comment on the acting and how the reel is designed but I can tell you that it is really sizzly in several spots. Could be the file format on soundcloud but I just hear sibilance all over.

Why are we resurrecting thread from a year and a half ago? Please read the rules and create a new thread if you cut a new demo.
