~ Please Read ~
So I have allergies to dust which affects my voice, causing it to sound nasally (how it sounds in my demo reel). However, there is a way to make my voice sound clear with a food diet. I went off this diet over this break, and so the result was this nasally demo reel.


Here is my summer demo reel so you can hear the clarity of my voice:

Honestly, and please don't take this as rude or anything, but I don't understand why you would record a demo reel when your voice isn't at it's best. If your voice would go back to normal after a few days/weeks, then you should have waited until then to record this. A demo reel is what people want to hear your best work in, and if you sound nasally in it, they're going to think that this is your best work and this is how you're always going to sound like. I know you put a "please read" but most people wouldn't read and would just click the video link and think that tone was your regular tone.

You need to expand your range. I know this is really extremely super duper hard but all the voices sounded the same (well aside from the sexy voice). I know you say you can't really do high-voiced characters, but you should practice more, or just extend more into your lower range.

The emotion at 0:38 was really flat and I think you were going for a bossy/snobby tone?

I would have liked to hear some yelling lines.

I hope your allergies go away.

Haha that's because I really wanted this to come out on Christmas, and I had forgotten to record before break due to school. Either way, this is my true voice in the end.
