Episode 115
Susanne Schick: The one where We Get Lost in the Middle!
In ep 115 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, Sue Schick joins Sam and Mark to talk about what happens when you lock into one way of doing a script and you can't quite escape from it, there's a windy fun fact, we explore a historical museum audio guide, and there's a surprise for Sam when we ask if you speak differently when you're in front of a mic... and if you do - why?
Our VO question this week is all about the differences in client expectations across international markets!

Script 1
I thought hiding in the forest was a good idea. Turns out I was wrong.
Ahead, through the gap in the leaves I could see the dirt road. I prayed I’d been wrong, that nothing was coming after me. I'd heard stories about this road, and this forest. People being robbed, killed, and it was certainly not my first choice for a hiding place. However, it was better than the narrow roads where I could easily get cornered. I knew my mistake, staying too late at the alehouse.
