I definitely felt a sense of panic approaching the mic. Not fear, but I would feel my stomach start to tighten and find it difficult to inhale smoothly. It felt almost like I had to inhale in sections, and then not always have enough breath to finish a sentence. It worried me because even though this is the only thing I want to do, I slightly dreaded having to record and I constantly questioned my ability.
So much more relaxed and focused. I no longer feel the physical panic and I get excited about recording. I practise some techniques and feel my confidence growing with every bit I do.
I can hear the difference in my recording – I’m no longer stealing gulps of air in between words. My delivery is smoother and I’m no longer thinking about what I’m doing, I’m just focusing on delivering the text.
Getting on the floor! Each time was like a mini retreat. Even though it was work I felt relaxed and focused on doing something purely for me and my vocal development. Having the one-to-one sessions also meant you could pinpoint specific things I was doing & help me correct them.
Don’t expect things to happen overnight. Give time in between sessions to build on what you’re learning and do the work daily. It doesn’t stop once the project finishes either so be willing to find time for it.
