I focus on a few core techniques that make the biggest difference in how you read copy and connect with listeners:

  1. Sight-reading drills: Rapid cold reads of diverse scripts (commercial, narration, imaging) to build agility and reduce “stumble panic.”
  2. Marking the script for phrasing, emphasis, and subtext so the read has a clear point of view instead of sounding “line-by-line.”
  3. Intent before words: We nail down who you are, who you’re talking to, and why it matters before you ever hit record. Acting first, talking second.
  4. Rhythm and contrast work: playing with pace, pause, and dynamics so the read doesn’t flatten out on mic.

What specific kind of reading do you want to get better at: commercial, narration, characters, or something else?
