In the broadcast biz we had a lot of such people because along with
"projection" they learned to enunciate and modulate their voices for

I think it's almost a lost art these days...
Proper articulation, whether you call it projection or enunciation or
modulation or whatever, is just speaking consciously with a knowledge and
appreciation of how to use the voice for maximum intelligibility. People don't
naturally do this; you have to think about it and learn it. Radio operators
who know how to articulate properly get more complete contacts under difficult
conditions.
It's really like using organic, brain-centric speech compression/clipping --
you boost the amplitude-domain and/or the time-domain parameters of sounds
that typically get short shrift in ordinary speech.
