Hi, this is Jason Bermingham—with a bit of a cold this week! Today we continue our study of tongue-twisters with three short warm-up exercises taken from the book Voiceovers: Techniques and Tactics for Success by author and voice-over artist Janet Wilcox.
The first warm-up will help you with the b sound, the second with the s sound, and the third with the th sound.
Make sure you click on the audio link and follow along. You should repeat each line after me.
