That is, you don't need to speed up or slow down to follow the words appearing, but trust that the words will be there when you need them. Don’t play ‘cat-and-mouse’: if you go quickly the scroll of the script will pick up pace too. ·        Develop rapport with the operator so you find a balance on your likely speed of the read together with the speed they need you to go to fit with the duration of the programme, so you can focus on your delivery. They will also get to know your idiosyncrasies, such as when you might pause or throw in an adlib. ·        Sometimes the speed the words appear is controlled by you with a foot-pedal or joystick. Be careful not to get itchy foot-syndrome and press the pedal as though it’s a car accelerator as the words will shoot ahead to another point entirely. Hosted on Acast.
