0589 – How To Practice Script-Reading Accuracy

2022.08.12– 0589 – How To Practice Script-Reading Accuracy

Practice Accuracy

Keep up your eye-to-mouth accuracy by reading lots of every style, and out loud. It could be bedtime stories to the kids, newspaper or online articles, billboard ads as you are stuck in a traffic queue… some couples even read novels aloud to each other, taking turns at each chapter. Anything. To yourself, to someone else or even into a recording app on your phone. There are plenty of sites[1] with actual or mocked-up commercial scripts, use them to practice your technique.

Volunteer to read for the local school, or at an old people’s home or for the Wireless For The Blind[2] groups. You’ll be helping other people and sharpening your own skills at sightreading (and maybe character voices) at the same time, if you read new material out loud on a regular basis.
