This is probably the best DIY teleprompter I have ever seen on TH-cam. It gets the job done, and yet is simple, portable and durable! Great job!
Thanks!
Elegantly simple and the video is exceptionally well produced. No words needed. Just brilliant design and minimalist execution.
Thank you! =)
without a doubt, this is a great bit of industrial design for the home shop! Thanks Doug
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it =)
This is really the finest design I've found for a DIY teleprompter and quite an excellent video showing its assembly. Thank you for sharing your excellent work with us; I am grateful.
Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you liked it =)
@@Soarpix3D Oh, I truly did. I'll be heading to a thrift shop this morning to try to find an appropriate-sized frame. It's going to be a fun build!
Perfect !
Best I have seen! Thank you!
Thanks! =)
I totally agree 👍🏼, best diy teleprompter ever! Congrats!!
Thanks!
Its great video for learning
Thank you!
Well done....
According to teleprompter Apps, Slides with bullet points is the best with the lead of being natural and maintaining eye contact on camera because you don't read word for word instead of script. "No special software needed" just have to mirror-flip the slides and good to go!
Thanks!
Definitely the best. I’ll make one my self, but trying to avoid tools.
what a gift! God bless you!
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it =)
yup, just like they all said down delow. best DIY on youtube ive seen. looks like you could even sell it. ive seen some for 1300 which is insane.
Thanks! =)
The best One ever
Thanks!
Good job, this is the best teleprompter i have seen here on TH-cam. Thanks
Thanks! =)
Many thanks for this high quality no nonsense explainer video! Best here on YT!!
Thanks! Glad you liked it =)
Nice! Great job all around!
Thanks! =)
I love this prompter!!!
Thanks! =)
Awesome, cheap to make but quality will be great. The only problem would be to fix this in a light weight tripod.
Great diy - best I’ve seen. Gonna put this together I ordered beam splitter glass. The rest I have laying around. So should be around 45 bucks total. Than you for the idea !
Glad you liked it! =)
Where did you order your beam splitter glass from?

great idea ...wonderful work..
Thanks! =)
I found this interesting to watch. I am building one using a Siemens LCD Screen off an older computer. My choice of the screen was motivated by it's construction, it is very sturdy. I got some beam splitter glass from a local supplier and put it into a picture frame (as you did). The screen was slightly deeper than the frame and I mounted the frame with hinges against a piece of wood, which is held in place by two adjustable clamps with wing nut screws. I like the idea of a T shirt to make the blackened enclosure, but I used black felt and trimmed it to size. The components including glass and frame cost in the region of U$40.00. I run the autocue section off a laptop. The screen size allows me to position myself quite a distance from the presenter and I can adjust the size of the characters to suit the reader. I used to use an older autocue with a CRT monitor in the past, so this one is considerable lighter. I am just welding a bracket to hold the construction in place on one of my Sachtler tripods. Your video is great
Great. Thanks
Smart design! Thank you.
I'm glad you liked it! =)
I just cannot believe how far we have come with technology. Compare this, an iPhone 8 and EMI 2001 studio camera's at the BBC in the 1970's
=)
Thanks for sharing! I successfully made one and very worth the effort. Keep up the good work!
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! =)

Thanks! Glad you liked it =)
I have experienced that the PPT Mirror tool plan that converts Powerpoint Presentation slides into teleprompter software has an ultimate guide to keep eye contact and sound natural on camera than other apps that forces you to read word for word..
super creative and innovative and resourceful hahahahaha nice thank you so much
you soooooooooooooooooooooooooo great
Thank you! =)

OMG this is great- and quality video production btw- hey aside- do u sell these like on etsy or direct or Shopify etc? What size ipad most perfectly fits in there? Why no need to spritz tinting on the glass to optimize the one-way/two way 'ness? Thanks.
The best one I have seen so far! Thanks a bunch! You have been such a great help! =D

How to make DIY teleporter.
😂😂😂
DIY teleporter would be nice! 😂
Thanks for the tip! I set up my TP as instructed and I have a problem: The projection on the glass is blurred, with shadows on the letters. I have already changed the position and height of my tablet, but it remains the same. Was there a solution? Any adjustments to the TP? Was it due to the type of glass?
About sewing a T-shirt, I found it easier to staple with a stapler.

Thanks for your comment! There will be double reflection when using regular glass. I do not think it is very disturbing if you are not too close to the teleprompter. Otherwise you have to use a special beam splitter glass.
The glass used is the same photo frame simple glass or a special type of glass, please specify
It's the same glass that came with the frame
Great Video. Thanks I will definitely be making one of these. I just started my channel and I know what I want to say and I get tongue ties. This will help out a lot.Thanks
Thanks! Glad you liked it, and good luck with your channel =)
and also if you struggle remembering the words, you could create your script in MS powerpoint and use an app called ppt-mirror.com to convert and mirror-flip your ppt files for your device to use in a prompter, in that case you don't need to memorize the script by simply using your existing slides and also the App doesn't force you to read word for word.. best wishes with your channel.
Dear Soarpix,
Thank you for this tutorial I have tried this method and it worked!
But I saw double text in my selfmade Teleprompter.
How can I fix this? Thank you!
Greetings from Holland
Hi,
You can use beam splitter glass but it is more expensive. I use regular glass so I also have a bit of double text but I don't think it is disturbing if you take a step backwards and make the letters bigger.
Very nicely done.. only I'm confused why not just prop up your ipad in that beautiful stand you just made? Why do the glass and cover?
Thanks for your comment! The whole idea of a teleprompter is that you can read the script reflected on the glass while looking straight into the camera behind the glass. =)
@@Soarpix3D Thanks for explaining that.. Obviously I'm not a content provider, lol. Your design is next level, though, and I enjoyed it for that reason alone. Function and form: 10/10.
soarpix.com I was wondering the same thing... thanks for clearing up. It makes perfect sense! Great vid!
Cool! Great! But, how to fix it to your camera/tripod?
Watch my other video =)
Sabe alguien por que se me ve como doble las letras se me reflejan y si se leen bien
What is the angle of tilt of the glass screen?
The angle is 45°
Wow its cool but i dont have cutting machine:(
me gusto
did you use the same glass from the frame?
Yes, it's the glass that came with the frame
Simple and best solution on the internet. I made it in half an hour. But disappointed due to double image i.e ghost image
Any solution?
Thanks! the solution is beam splitter glass. I use regular glass and I think the ghost image is less visual if I increase the distance between me and the teleprompter
What thickness are the 2 flat pieces of wood you glued to the picture frame? Also, what angle did you open up the teleprompter to to mark where the threaded rod would rest? Thanks. Very helpful video!
Thanks for your comment! The thickness is 3 mm and the angle is 45 degrees.
Dear sir i using different types of glass after I see this video... But all are unsuccessful.. Every glass are showing the text shadow .... Can you explain which glass use for it... Otherwise send me link to buy the glass..
... I have already spend 1500 rs but I am not able to..
You can use beam splitter glass but it is more expensive. I use regular glass (the one that came with the frame) so I also have a bit of double text but I don't think it is disturbing if you zoom in the lens, take a step backwards and make the letters bigger. A thin glass make less double reflection.
Amazing. Do you sell them?
Thanks! Glad you liked it. I'm not selling them but maybe I should =)
Hi are you selling the DIY kits?
Absolutely GENIUS!!! I'll be building my version of this tomorrow. Anyone know if there is an Android app for prompting scripts? Preferably one that can recognize what I'm saying and will move according to what I've said and where I'm at in the script? That would be helpful. I'd hate to feel like I was racing the teleprompter to get something said before it goes away.
He's got links to Android and IOS apps above. I think you'll find PromptSmart is the only one that follows your voice - I'm trying it as of yesterday and it seems okay. I've read that it sometimes jumps forward or back if certain things are repeated. Good luck!
*how to attach it to tripod?*
I have another video where you can see it.
those letters are passing in the front of the lens.i think it will also capture by the camera??
You might wanna google how a teleprompter works to answer your question..
How do you mount it?
You can see how I mount it in this video: th-cam.com/video/1BOb8o24EmU/w-d-xo.html
What type of glass did you make use of?
I used the glass that came with the frame.
Are you selling it?
