Tips for Better Videos
- Relax. It’s okay to be yourself. It’s okay to make mistakes.
- Ignore small mistakes. Correct yourself if necessary, and move on.
- Look at the camera lens, not yourself.
- Make sure the lighting is good. Light should be in front of you, and it shouldn’t cast a shadow across your face.
- Minimize background (and wind) noise.
- Focus on the message and your audience.
