I am an aspiring voice actor. Looking for advice.
I have a voicee that is suitable for voice overs, but when I record myself I find I sound stilted and unnatural. Does anyone have any tips on how I can train myself to sound more natural? I have a good home recording studio but have always used this for music. It's perfect for voice recording, alas, I am not.
