Machteld van der Gaag: The one with the International English!
In ep 162 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk (https://britishvoiceover.co.uk/), Machteld van der Gaag joins Sam and Mark from Amsterdam to talk about International English - it's not British, it's not American - but what is it... and is it possible to really nail it? We create a masterclass in what NOT to do! We look at how voicing a corporate script to pictures can lead to so odd sentence breaks... and how to manifest the work you want!
Our VO question this week is all about the types of work we're booked for, and whether it's the work we want to be doing!

Script 1
To help prevent future sciatica pain, Carl works on building strength in his core and back. Strong muscles help stabilise the body and the act of building muscles is in many ways a neural activity. You probably associate exercise with your muscles or heart but recent studies have shown that when we lift weights our nervous system actually gets stronger before our biceps. Working out increases neurons in certain parts of the brain.
Script 2
You could be forgiven for thinking the maritime industry is a woman’s world
We refer to ships as she
They are named by lady sponsors
They sail upon a sea often thought of as a mother
But let’s be honest
The maritime world may still seem a male-dominated one
And that is a shame.
We want to work with the most talented, hardworking people
Qualities that do not recognise the boundaries of gender
So if we want to be the best at what we do
We need to be open to everyone
