0726 – Your ‘Voice of God’ Voice

2022.12.27 – 0726 – Your ‘Voice of God’ VoiceYour voice·        In this position you are often the face, or rather the voice of the event: the conductor. Assess the brand of the events and the type of content you are reading. Is it a corporate gig or a relaxed and younger audience? Your voice needs to be representative of the client, and fit with the brand and vibe of the event. For example, if you are announcing winners at the “Scaffolder of the Year” award on a weekday lunchtime, it may be a different tone, age and style than that of the “Young Hairdresser of the Year” Award on a Friday night. If it’s a black-tie business event for lawyers, the tone may be different again. If it’s a trade show event for women’s fashion, then a female voice may be the best fit for the announcements. ·        Your voice needs to be friendly but authoritative, a style that will make people listen and act. Your voice needs to be likeable, and perhaps ‘vanilla’: it’s good to cut through but not jar. You need the attendees to understand and act on what you are saying but not notice its qualities.Don’t worry about sounding towards the ‘announcer’ side of the scale. You usually need clean enunciation, clarity of voice, and a measured voice that cuts through, but is still warm and inviting – usually said with a smile and not with a shout. Hosted on Acast.
