We started with taking a look at my booklet and he was happy with what I showed him.
The order was good, the only thing I had to change was to underline the titles and to use a different font.
Not too bad, ey? (=P) I'm glad that was good, only we moved on to the script which I was less sure about.
It was not too bad he said, it needed some improvement which I perfectly understand.
I had the commercial starting with an intro which wasn't appropriate. He taught me I have to start the commercial with the name of the company and announcing the event.
Some wordings were improved, but the content of the lines I wrote pretty much still existed.
Instead of writing 'us' I had to write down the name of the company and the extro also had to consist of the company's name. We basically copied the first line again only changed it slightly at the end to attract the viewer.
After that I had to read the script out loud. Gosh, what a disaster. I felt it was lacking and he also noticed I struggled. We started practicing words as I really really have to improve the 'th' sound.
I have to stick out my tongue more in order to do that, but as I'm not used to it I keep on forgetting that.
I also have to pronounce the p, d and t's at the end which I slur. Well, I know I have to open my mouth more and speak slower in order to pronounce those letters too.
Next thing I have to work on is my confidence. My readings need more energy, but I can't do energy when I'm focusing too much on my speech. I also smile all the time when i talk which is a sign of nervousness.
Didn't even realize this xD but I did feel awkward trying to pronounce the words correctly. I have to work on my seriousness now.
Well, good thing I have a creepy pasta reading coming up (which means reading out a scary story)
So that way I can practice my speech a lot.
He also told me he had to learn the dictionary and memorize all words in college and the way things have to be pronounced. Good advice, I will do that too at words I'm not sure of so I will pronounce them better.
(like the word temperature)
Later I will have to record the same script and work on my energy and pronunciation. That will be a blast, though it will probably take a while to nail it. Confidence is the key.
Now I will get to watch my supervisor to record the commercial. The way it looks now he will be using my altered script so that's cool! Next to that I will be home in the afternoon starting from 1 o clock, but will have to go back this evening for the last recording session for Mike's album.
Will have to cook early this time, spaghetti is on the menu. Yummie.
Cooking is going pretty well! Haven't messed up anything yet, but to be fair I don't change much in my food.
I mostly bake hamburgers, chicken, meatloaf and sausages. I make spaghetti, wraps, rice and potatoes with frozen veggies. I vary more than my roommates though. I never see them cook actually =P
