- I BET you've had this experience... You set up your camera, you step in front of it, ready to talk...
And BAM. Your real self takes a back seat, and PRESENTER you comes forward.
"Whatsup guys! My name's X and TODAY we're going to talk about... "
haha. All too familiar right?
I went on an epic sunset mission to the park recently, and made a video about the 3 things I've found MOST useful in my journey to authenticity on camera.

No one else on TH-cam explains things on camera or filmmaking the way you do..thanks for coming back..
Appreciate that man thank you
Thank you Thomas, I can relate to you ..😊
Seriously, nobody presents this delicate yet incredibly important subject like you do. The soothing soundscape and nature shots in this one really amplified the message. Beautiful work Thomas
Appreciate that
This is extremely helpful and exactly the kind of advice I needed right now. Thank you so much! Also incredible film & editing, this felt so peaceful and affirmating!
Thank you for this. Normally I do tutorials in stained- or fused glass, then my attention is with what I do all the time and explaining as I go along. I’m in the process of making my first travel vlog (convinced by my daughter) and all of a sudden I’m out of my comfort zone. This video of yours will definitely help
Gracias por tu trabajo
Hey Thomas your videos have been so helpful for my journey through filming myself. Taking on the 30 day film myself talking to camera challenge and I’ll def using your tips through this process. I’m always looking for ways to improve and your content has been my go to. Appreciate what you’re doing!
Glad to see your back with more videos, Thomas! Really enjoying these ones on speaking to a camera, trying to improve this skill on my own TH-cam channel right now :) Thanks!!
Glad to see these videos, Thomas. Thank you. They help me create more authentic videos - too often I'm focused on delivering the lesson instead of being myself and connecting with the viewer.
You do such a great job of explaining things, and I love the vibe of your work. Thanks.
As a naturally boring person, I find this to be great advice 😊

Absolutely beautiful explanation and tips (that word undermines the depth of what you just said!).

Lol, in a recent video I said this EXACT thing..."Argh, presenter voice!" because I slip into presenter voice all the time.
Thanks Thomas awesome video I learned something new. I feel that this is one thing that will make us different from others and be successful on these platforms.

I just came across your videos and it made me want to try talking to my camera for 30 days. even if i never post it. just to see what I can do differently and build comfort speaking
Me too 👍
Awesome video. This is going to help me a tonne with my business presentations!!
Awesome.

The telegram account is spam and is not me.
This video needs WAY more views. I can't believe this hasn't blown up. It will.
❤️
I am that annoying trying to be a presenter person so thanks for this. 🤗 I want to add too that Daily Vloggers do seem better at this as they don’t think so much about what they are saying to get a video out, therefore coming over more natural.
- [00:34] 🎥 Feeling like you're just mouthing words without authenticity on camera can be frustrating, but breaking out of presenter mode is possible.
- [01:33] 😄 Infuse humor into your content to make yourself laugh and connect with your audience more authentically.
- [04:37] 💡 Talk about topics that genuinely excite you to bring more passion and authenticity to your content.
- [07:47] ❤ Connect with your emotions by doing a breathing exercise before filming and envisioning your audience to speak from the heart.
Hi. You look like a model. Bye. 😊 p.s. Beautiful video!
A great example of self-amusement anyone could check out is Alan Watts!
He's also just one of the wisest men to have ever spoken in front of groups of people.
Changed my life many times over!
agreed, he's awesome
🥳🇮🇳❤️❤️
