FEEDBACK
LISTENING TO YOUR PEERS
You are welcome to listen to your own recording as well as everyone else’s recordings. They are all available to download to members of the VOWW. Hearing your peers do what THEY do is always a great opportunity to learn.
A piece of copy in any genre can be read 1,000’s of ways. In the real world you are auditioning against 100’s of other actors never knowing really what you are up against. The VOWW is an incredible behind the scenes look into what other actors are doing with the same piece of copy. How other home studio’s sound compared to yours. What feedback would look like depending on how any performance is delivered. It can be eye opening, well EAR opening in many ways for the participants who take the time to delve into all the reads and feedback and not just their own.
