Michael, it's a GREAT spot, terrificly-voiced, nicely done. I love it.

But it's not a demo. A demo is a short composite of bits and bytes of your stuff.

And I'd love to hear more of your stuff!

WOW, thank you Scott, I really appreciate that. I wonder from time to time if I am heading in the right direction. Sure I would like you to hear more. Should I post some more files or you can check out my voice123 site.
Best regards, Michael J

Scott,
I was wondering if yoou had a chance to listen to the other spots or take a peek at my site? Mike

Hi Michael,
Here's a short example of what Scott was saying.
You need to take short clips (8-10 secs) of spots and piece them together to show your different styles. The total length should be about 1 minute.
You'll need a seperate demo for spots, training, documentaries, on-hold etc.
Good Luck,
John

I think the Mustang spot is the best by far.
The Singleton's spot sounds a bit stilted. By that, I mean I think you are over annunciating. Try it with the same tone but try to be more conversational.
The Honda spot sounded a little muffled as compared to the others.
The leisuremix piece has some noise in it.
That being said, I think you have a great voice and all you really need to do is work on not over annunciating and being more conversational.
Good Luck!
