Me, reciting "Horatius" by Thomas Babington Macaulay. Feedback welcome. Hope you enjoy it.

Positives: Great facial expressions, exciting body language, and emotionally intense delivery.

Things to work on: I must admit I couldn't understand the text. It was too fast (like Shakespearean acting), and indistinct. My auditory processing ability is not the greatest, and the webcam-quality video doesn't allow for supplementary lip-reading.

Breath technique was poor: I could hear you gasping with each breath. Try breathing in through mouth and nose simultaneously. Also try holding yourself in a balanced forward position so air intake is accomplished by relaxing the abdominal muscles rather than tensing the intercostals.

why so fast? there were some nice passages, but it felt more rushed than anything else; i've always felt the poem called more for a weighty "measured tread" approach.
