Vocal warm ups for podcasters, audiobooks and video content creators
<p>How often do you start recording and then feel like you need to clear a bunch of gunk from your throat?</p><p>You didn’t feel all gunked up beforehand, why is it happening just as you started recording?</p><p>Mostly it’s due to not preparing your voice for recording before you started. You’re coming into the recording with a “cold” voice. Just like an athlete or a musician needs to warm up before they begin, so do podcasters. It’s not just podcasters either. If you’re preparing to record your audiobook or video content, these warm ups will really help you achieve a clearer, more relaxed sound.</p><p><strong>CHAPTER MARKERS</strong></p><p>00:00 Introduction to Vocal Warm-Ups for Podcasters</p><p>01:22 Breathing Techniques to Calm Nerves</p><p>03:43 Silly but Effective Vocal Exercises</p><p>06:08 Projection and Siren Exercises</p><p>08:00 Tongue Twisters for Pronunciation</p><p>09:17 Final Tips for Recording</p><p><br></p><p><strong>BAMBY MEDIA LINKS:</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.bambymedia.com/consultations" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Book A Consultation</a></p><p><a href="https://buy.stripe.com/eVa16f7n79nk42k2ap" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Custom Review Of Your Audio/Edit</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@bambymedia" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube Channel</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>GEAR WE USE HERE AT BAMBY MEDIA:</strong></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3SEWnkM" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SE Dyncaster DCM8</a></p><p><a href="https://puyp.captivate.fm/elgato-wave-pro" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Elgato Wave Mic Pro</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3rkw0VO" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">XLR Cables</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3D0PP7h" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sony ZV E10</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/44e534X" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Elgato Camlink</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3XGyGcx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Aputure Amaran 200d LED Video Light</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/46yVxuG" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Aputure Light Box Min</a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Pre-Amp/Mixers we recommend</strong></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3NIr0SD" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Focusrite Clarett+</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/49EOamv" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rode Streamer X</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3In1QH1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rodecaster Pro II</a></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3Io09J9" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rodecaster Pro Duo</a></p><p><br></p>
