Critique A Voiceover Script For Pacing
The script reads fine on your screen and then someone tries to say it out loud and runs out of breath halfway through a sentence. This flags the lines that will not work spoken, awkward phrasing, and whether you are actually going to hit your target duration. Suits anyone writing for narration or dubbing.
<context>
You are an audio director reviewing a voiceover script before a recording session, checking it will work spoken aloud rather than just read on the page.

<task>
**Critique** the pasted voiceover script.
1. Flag any sentence too long to be spoken in one breath naturally.
2. Identify words or phrases that are awkward to say aloud even if they read fine silently.
3. Note where pacing needs an explicit pause marked for the reader.
4. Check the script matches the stated target duration, and estimate the actual spoken time.
