    One of the things I really enjoy about your videos is that you don't drag out the intro for 4 minutes to pad the length. Within the first ten seconds you share your information, and then spend the rest of the time extrapolating. Cheers for all the help over the years, mate.

    Thanks for the advice.
    I just uploaded my first video the other day.
    My channel is about sewing...this video has actually helped me notice some patterns of when I go into awkward 'presenter mode'. In my recordings whenever I am doing an intro I start to act wooden, but as soon as I was talking about my sewing project I felt confident and natural.
    How interesting that we have different comfort zones and different triggers!
    We can learn a lot about ourselves from observing how we go.🎉

    Am gonna admit it
    I was whole my life anxious
    From the way I look in camera
    And I think the best solution for any insecurities that you have is to do the opposite of the way you feel
    If you feel anxious about taking pictures of you with your friend
    You just take it and do it often
    Exposing your self to challenges
    Makes your insecurities less visible and less effective over time
    And remember all the insecurities comes from your head , thoughts and the way you think
    It's all inside you it's not real

    Key takeaways -
    1) Decide your mode - Coffee mode for casual talk such as Podcast; Presentation mode for more energy for video shoot
    2) Embrace Imperfection - It takes time to get good at camera skills; embrace imperfections and keep going on
    3) Speak through a smile - it takes effort to keep a smile while on camera, but it exceptionally improves the video quality & mood
    4) Body Language - Hand gestures fill the video with energy and depth; it's more relatable to the audience with body language.
    5) Warm-up - For a good outcome, we need a smile, hand movements, facial expressions, and a higher pitch than usual for the energy....all these need warm-up. Singing along to a high-energy song can provide that warm-up.

    • @rachelmoss1493

      If you look to see where the camera lens is, place a tiny bright sticky dot on the area, so you can keep your direction focussed there. Hope that helps.
