5 Tips for Talking in Front of a Camera

Speaking in front of a camera can be scary, intimidating, or feel a little akward. When you feel like this while recording, it'll show on the final video. I'm giving you my top 5 tips on how to look natural while talking in front of a camera in just a few easy steps!

I'm so glad you mentioned looking into the camera lens instead of the view finder. It's so strange when people are looking off or at themselves.

It's been 2 years since I started my channel, and still have trouble talking in front of a cam! Usually I'm not shy in person, it's just the camera! ugh. Thanks for your help

Smiling is also very helpful for voice-overs or podcasts. I once did a short radio report and got that tip before as well. People can hear if you are smiling, even if your face can't be seen. :)

A few drinks actually fixed everything, but do what she says. Healthier.

So helpful - I'm just starting doing videos where I am talking and I know I look awkward and way too serious - hoping with time that I'll get use to it - I subscribed and shared on FB
