0962 - 'Sloppy' Speech

from Get A Better Broadcast, Podcast and Voice-Over Voice

2023.08.20 – 0962 - 'Sloppy' Speech Sloppy speech Symptom: Good diction doesn’t (usually) matter (!). As I have said several times in different ways (such as in epsiode 263), what’s important is whether your target listener is getting a muddled message. If they are, then you are not communicating with them and you need to consider whether how your delivery or diction is at fault. Prescription: · Relax and open your mouth effectively to help you form the words. Vocal warm-ups will also help, as will lubrication (“hydrate, mate!”) · Breathe properly to give your sound more support. · Don’t over-do the elocution, you want to sound conversational not jerky and staccato
