After some positive feedback, it's time for me to publicize Fenneks eSports!
Hey guys. I'm TJB, proud caster of Fenneks eSports.
In our "Media" team, there are our casters, myself and Andyvich, as well as our cameraman, Klutzish. We're looking to stream the upcoming Fenneks officials and possibly some scrims as we get closer to the end of Season 15.
This is our first time casting 6v6, with Fenneks eSports going uo against Team Renaissance in Week 3.

I listened for the first 60 seconds. More positivity. Your co-caster starts of the show with an introduction and then sets it off to you. At that point a dull voice chimes in stating he's "alright" and then I kind of got bored and stopped listening. Make everything you say important. Don't make it artificial but make it sound like you just received some good news.

I'm with mario. You were reading the plays well and gave helpful information, but a little enthusiasm goes a long way.

I'm not one of the flamboyant ones, so to say. I'm nervous whenever I do something, and casting is just.... eeeeh, scary. D:

I agree with Zimmy you did a great job!
To comment on what Mario said I don't think that you were unenthusiastic, and I saw some
sparks in there where I could tell that you were engaged with what you were seeing. Just try to vary your voice cause it does tend to all sit at the same level.
I thought you enunciated really well and were very audible throughout. I could tell you knew about the teams and players.
In the pre-game talk you'll notice that your co-caster did a lot of the talking and you seemed a bit stiff when answering the questions. Think of it as a conversation, and don't just answer his questions -- ask him some too! If you can smooth transitions and build chemistry with your co-casters that would be ideal.
Also this is a silly sales technique but if you smile while talking the people who are listening can hear you smile.
Keep up the good work!

practice and watch a lot of casts. starcraft ii casters are also really good examples if you understand the game.

listen to yourself and don't be afraid to be quiet in order to give your co-caster more time to talk, or to just let suspense build.
Many casters just try and spit as many words out as possible. Focus on accuracy and communication instead of speed.

Try not to use audible pauses, such as: "uhh," "ahh," "whoisit?" "like," "umm" "er" etc...
:P
