How to Talk like a Newscaster

In this mixed-up world, people want a voice they can trust. Talk like a newscaster and give the impression that you're in the know.

Step 1: Neutralize your voice
Lose your regional dialect -- actual newscasters frequently move between cities and need to have a neutral accent. Speak a little slower and enunciate carefully, until no one can tell where you're from.

Step 2: Communicate the action
Tell a story when you talk. Think about each sentence's point, and stress the words that best communicate the action to help your viewers understand the information easily.

Step 3: Speak with authority
Speak with conviction, whether or not you know what you're talking about. Maintain good posture and make eye contact with anyone you address, to project confidence and knowledge.

Tip
If you're completely uninformed, make up a weather report for the upcoming week.

Step 4: Stay calm
Don't exaggerate when you speak; people wouldn't take a real newscaster seriously if everything they said sounded like a major development. Keep your inflection even and calm while still sounding engaged.

Step 5: Have a conversation
Loosen up -- speak in a conversational style and add a few laughs while you speak to connect with your audience. Then, when you've covered the day's major topics, utter a signature sign-off line and shuffle a few pieces of paper as the credits roll.

Did You Know?
In 2010, 762 American television stations produced original local news broadcasts.

When you have to do a news report skit for school

As a former TV host, just change everything special about yourself dialectically, aggressive eye contact, and stress key words

I like to change accents from sentence to sentence rather than speak neutrally. That'll really make it so no one knows where I'm from and angers the hell out of them.

It's so weird when you watch the news and they all sound the same. It's like they are singing a song

How to talk like a newscaster? More like 'How to talk like you just arrived from 1962.'

[Animatty]

The explanation was so clear, no wonder the thumbs up was in 4k

[Zummile]

Is it also an obligation to make my eyebrows dance?

[Not_Interested_]

The explanation in that video is great, but there are two questions: first is whether there isa specific education to be Newscaster, and second is whether we can maximize the potential that we have when we're being Newscaster?
