Accent Requirement
Hello,
I have been rejected several times now for not performing a good British accent. I am not mad or venting :), just tired of being rejected. I have now switched my accent preferences, but I still don't hear anything wrong with my British accent. I grew up perfecting this accent, and now, I work for many clients, on and off Voice Bunny, who ask me to perform a British accent and have no problem with the result. I have even asked actual English people about my accent, and they told me that I sounded authentic.
I am willing and desirous to improve so, please, if you hear anything off about my accent, let me know. I want to perfect my performances, but Voice Bunny is the only client saying there is any issue.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
Heidi

Hi Heidi! I hope you're well. I have listened to the recording and have a few comments regarding which parts give you away:
-Over emphasis of certain words, such as 'your'
-The word 'account': 'ou' should sound like 'ou' in the word 'ouch'
-sounds like you are saying 'much' not 'match'
-your 'r's are under pronounced, so sometimes sound like a 'w' -- such as 'fwend'
Thank you!
Hello Kitty!
Thank you so much! This is the kind of detailed feedback I was seeking. Thank you for taking the time to listen and evaluate my work. I will work on improving my British accent.
Blessings,
Heidi
