How to record natural speak to UW-video?

[Sharp]

I made my first UW-video with recording speak for my own voice. I sound horrible because it was sooooo stif.:( Yes, I know that I have to take it again nad again and again...

Any guidance from experts? Do you do mainly speaks by youself, or do you let some one else to do it?

It takes practice to sound natural when you record narration. But some people are more naturally inclined towards it than others. Practice by reading out loud as if you are reading a story to a child.

I pick narrators based on the sound of the person's voice and if it works in the context of the film I'm making. Sometimes my voice works, sometimes not.
