One of the things I really enjoy about your videos is that you don't drag out the intro for 4 minutes to pad the length. Within the first ten seconds you share your information, and then spend the rest of the time extrapolating. Cheers for all the help over the years, mate.

How tf is that underrated
Ali Abdaal certainly knows how to inspire many people to actively do the things that they need to do in their own lives. Seems like undervalued skills are some things that should be taken more seriously.

True, he is really great
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us once again! Love your channel & content - keep it up!
Being Camera sky is normal especially with introverts. However with consistent showing up on camera will help you be less camera shy.
Fantastic idea on singing. Singing, even tho I’m not great at it, always makes me feel better. Add dancing, and I’m ecstatic. Lol
Key takeaways - 1) Decide your mode - Coffee mode for casual talk such as Podcast; Presentation mode for more energy for video shoot 2) Embrace Imperfection - It takes time to get good at camera skills; embrace imperfections and keep going on 3) Speak through a smile - it takes effort to keep a smile while on camera, but it exceptionally improves the video quality & mood 4) Body Language - Hand gestures fill the video with energy and depth; it's more relatable to the audience with body language. 5) Warm-up - For a good outcome, we need a smile, hand movements, facial expressions, and a higher pitch than usual for the energy....all these need warm-up. Singing along to a high-energy song can provide that warm-up.
Great video, very helpful! That's one thing I need to work on, camera confidence!
Thanks for the advice. I just uploaded my first video the other day. My channel is about sewing...this video has actually helped me notice some patterns of when I go into awkward 'presenter mode'. In my recordings whenever I am doing an intro I start to act wooden, but as soon as I was talking about my sewing project I felt confident and natural. How interesting that we have different comfort zones and different triggers! We can learn a lot about ourselves from observing how we go.🎉
Thank you Ali! This is invaluable advice.
Ali never fails to deliver. Thanks Ali for these tips👍🏾

Thanks for this! I am finding your advice really helpful and have finally started my youtube channel after years of postponing!

The fundamental problem is beauty (clear skin and aligned teeth) and speaking ability. Currently, I am concentrating on this. The advice & Course you gave me will motivate me in the future. Many thanks.
Hey Ali what I like about your content is ....in first 10 seconds the intro and then u just wrap up all the stuff in an easy and understand able manner......great 👍......keep going with this....

Another tip. Run through your script and all the other talking points talking to the camera but dont press record. Do it multiple times to get rid of the jitters and anxiety. Helps me
Starting to learn talking in the camera as well. Thanks, Ali.😊
Another wonderful Video. Thank You for this.
The lighting on this video is flawless!
Thank you Ali!

I Can listen to ali’s voice all day long , good job mate !
Very useful. Thank you for sharing. I have always enjoyed your videos.
Am gonna admit it I was whole my life anxious From the way I look in camera And I think the best solution for any insecurities that you have is to do the opposite of the way you feel If you feel anxious about taking pictures of you with your friend You just take it and do it often Exposing your self to challenges Makes your insecurities less visible and less effective over time And remember all the insecurities comes from your head , thoughts and the way you think It's all inside you it's not real
Another Banger Ali!
Thanks very helpful as always.
Thank you so much Ali

Biggest fan sir
Baby Ali!! precious
Why are you selling me on the benefits of camera confidence? I came here looking for how to do it. I already am sold on the importance of it.
Camera confidence, it makes your audience even want to listen to you
You saved my life, Ali
I thank you .
For me, it's energy. Do I have the energy to sustain beyond 3 uploads. Which is linked to motivation. May one day...
I would love to see a video about how you presented on video for youtube from your very first video to now for a comparison of your growth. Sean Cannell of Think Media showed this and the difference was vast in the improvement, showing anyone can progress to be a good presenter with enough practice.
Thank ❤
Great video 🙂
Amazing..😻😍

Ahhh I am so addicted to Ali's videos, Is anyone else lol?

Love sir
It’s one of the most important skills that I’ve been developing for few last years 📲
This was super helpful. Thanks!! The hardest part for me was trying to look straight into the tiny camera behind the iPhone while not losing my train of thought because it felt so unnatural. Do you have tips for that? Do I look at that tiny camera? Is it easier when the lense is bigger? Thank you!!

If you look to see where the camera lens is, place a tiny bright sticky dot on the area, so you can keep your direction focussed there. Hope that helps.

Forget camera confidence, I want to hear more of Ali singing.
Could I recommend changing the title to 2023? I think it’ll attract more people to watch :) epic vid man
Lovely
If you want to achieve excellence, you can get there today. As of this second, quit doing less-than-excellent work.
Everyone complaining about the speed of speech and then there is me who actually puts it on 1.25 speed because I have adhd and I am on meds and so I have no patience and want to get the information as quickly as possible hahah
