Simple mistakes are often the easiest solutions.
So today I want to talk to you about headphones. Should you use headphones in the booth or not?
Should you use headphones in the booth or not? I get this question quite often from students who are just coming into the voiceover. There's a multitude of answers for that one. A lot of times it can distract you so that you'll end up listening to what you sound like in your headphones, rather than concentrating on the performance or the storyline in the script. So unless you've got many years of experience in the booth being directed with headphones on, I wouldn't recommend having headphones on in the booth.
It may seem simple, but this one trick will help you become much better in the booth. You'll find that your reads improve quickly!
