Tips for recording on your phone or laptop
Framing Tips: Place the camera at eye level – use a tripod, a stack of books, or a stand. Center yourself in the frame with a little space above your head. Sit or stand about 2–4 feet away from the camera. Make sure your background is clean and not too distracting.
Lighting Tips: Face a window for natural light. Never have the window behind you. If recording at night, use a lamp or ring light in front of you, slightly above eye level. Avoid strong light from above or below – it creates shadows.
Audio Tips: Record in a quiet room with minimal background noise. Turn off loud fans, TVs, or appliances. Make sure the microphone on your device is not covered. Recording: Take a deep breath and relax before you hit record. Look at the camera lens, not the screen, to make eye contact. Speak clearly and don’t worry about being perfect—just be yourself!
