    Speaking on camera doesn't come naturally. When I first started recording video courses and TH-cam videos (years ago) I look back on them now and think they are awful! No expression or emotion. I've now learned to loosely script my videos which gives me the opportunity to talk about all the important points, but infuse my personality in the videos. Great video and tips Riaz!

    Something I learned about in this video is about the importance of hand writing your scripts/materials down. This is because when you type out your notes you don't really get to process the information compared to when you hand write the notes instead. Another important point is the use of volume to specific moments. With proper use of volume you can emphasize on certain key points in order to convey their impotance.

    @josephlipp7605 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think that writing bullet points when reading in front of a camera is so helpful because that gives you the option to speak from your mind and not read directly, and in case you forget where you were going with a point, you can peer at your bullet points. I also think the eye contact with the camera is important because it is seen as eye contact with your audience.

    This is so well broken down for people Riaz! As an actor for me what works is writing out my script fully and memorizing because on set this is what I have to do anyway, we don't use teleprompters. And memorizing saves me from rabbling [which is my tendency] and exercises my memory which ironically isn't great. Like you I shoot in segments and then splice together in editing.

    • @RiazMeghji
      @RiazMeghji  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @NissySlim
      @NissySlim 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@RiazMeghji Most scripts for tv/film are dialogue so the flow of a conversation makes it easier. Here I tackle it like a 'monologue'. Similar to what you mentioned, section parts off and tackle them in chucks, it's less pressure! Writing out my script helps solidify it. And rehearse it. If it's a longer 'chunk' repetition and play it back, see what did I miss or can improve on.

I also film in segments/multiple takes, and usually have my script at the bottom of the screen (will review it quickly and 'memorize' before each segment).
