Thank you so much! I’ve learned to embrace it 😅

I’m okay with vlogging in the public. What messing me up is loud noise like a loud motorcycle or loud car noise. Sometimes it’s the airplane so loud.

Ugh, that’s a huge problem for me too, and one of the reasons why I often dislike filming outside. Over time, I’ve learned to listen for loud sounds and stop filming until they pass.

Thank you for your time to provide helpful content and tips. I have watched 3 of your video’s so far (trying to learn about my Sony camera. You are very easy to follow and very natural and down to earth. You don’t talk too fast, don’t appear to be rushed to squeeze too much in 1 video

Would definitely love to see more of these types of videos! Or following along with how you script and then talk to camera, that would be very interesting

More videos like this please, it is really great for a beginner like me.

Thank you so much for this video. I've been publishing videos for the last 3 years, have 139 of them posted and still do not have enough views to reach the monetized threshold. I'm working to get them better and I'm gradually focusing on a clearer niche. My point is: watching your channel keeps me encouraged to keep going and to incorporate your points into my video creation. Thank you so much.

I’ve had the same experience, it was difficult to speak on camera in my early videos. But now it comes more naturally. I don’t use a script, but I do have a outline, and I practice it at least once. Great video, and thanks for sharing.

I found this really helpful! A year in, I still get insecure about public vlogging, but definitely have felt the confidence grow.

Excellent tips for a beginner. Thank you!

I found this video very helpful. Make more like these! For me, these have a higher value.

You're so brave. Thanks for your tips

Practical sensible advice! Thank you.

Excellent tips 👍 thanks for sharing, I’ve done too many videos and I’m still nervous to talk in public

Thank you for this video. Would love more videos like this perhaps in a dedicated playlist. For a beginner like myself this is good info.

Love the video. Love the tips. Love this format... Keep 'em coming!

Yes please, more videos like this would be very useful and you're also very inspirational too, which also helps relax and give confidence. There are so many ways and things you can do tagging onto this video, you can do composition of photo/video, setting up equipment taking into account weather and location, you could also do effects techniques in post, etc. Most of all, I totally love your videos and have been a proud sub for quite a few years now. So I still enjoy comparisons, reviews, set ups, editing vlogs, I also love your presentation-style, it's very concise and relaxing. Keep up the fab work, thank you.

Excellent tips! Thanks for sharing!

Love the video! Please make more like this. Maybe talk about how to create urban and nature videos. I know they exist but I always enjoy multiple perspectives. Maybe others do as well. Thanks so much! Greetings from Anacortes!

Thank you for this!!!

thank you for the insight it was very useful

Good video. I like the part about scripting. It is very important for anyone to get better at talking on camera. ALL news people use a teleprompter to deliver the news, so why would it be bad to do it for your vlogging channel?

I found this video incredibly encouraging. I have been trying to work up to putting myself in my videos and I believe this was some great advice.

Great helpful video, thank you

Thanks for the video, it helps!

I started my channel several years ago testing wine on KZread, but only last year I started publishing videos on a different topic than the beginning of the channel. Today I even have a blog.

Great video, totally agree with everything talked about.

This is a fantastic video Mam! I especially liked your point about filming in a comfortable environment. That's something I hadn't thought about before, but it makes so much sense. I think I'll try filming in my backyard from now on.

great advice .....

Love the tips. I started a secret vlog channel, mostly to make home videos of vacations for the memories and to share with family, and It is so weird to hear myself on camera and also makes me aware that I should speak up more. But I decided to try and get comfortable in front of a camera so it helps me on zoom calls esepcially when I need to present.

Keep doing these videos

Thank you for these great tips and your amazing videos. I'm moving towards creating content similar to yours using a mix of topics around travel, creative expression, and personal development. Your hard work and willingness to share is appreciated!!!!

I’m just starting with videography and haven’t filmed myself yet. Thank you for sharing these valuable tips, I found them very useful!

Excellent vid. Thanks for the tips that I greatly need👍👍

Thanks so much for this video! I fell into so many of those categories you discuss that keep me from making videos. I spent many months building a "set" and getting all the right equipment, getting the right clothes, then writing a perfect script, then getting more equipment (a teleprompter) to read the script... and then when I tried to make my first video, it was terrible! I was stiff, worried, robotic... and I've been afraid to try again. Your tips are a great reminder that we all start from scratch and learn as we go. I'm ready to try again!

❤🎉😊please do, I really appreciate you making this video, I can relate with you as I thought that my hubby would be the one in front of the camera, I will watch this over and over again 🎉, thank you for sharing this video 🎉🙏.

Hey, great topic today. I can definitely relate to this video. Sometimes it takes me SO long to get comfortable in front of the camera when I’m trying to shoot a video, take after take after take. My wife says I’m too critical of myself or I sound too scripted. Still trying to find that right balance. Anyway, yes more videos like this please. P.S. I enjoy your tech videos also!✌🏾

Great!

Hi there! I've been viewing your videos for gear and most of my KZread equipment and I always believed you were a natural. So I appreciate this video you offered as I feel much better knowing someone like you had the same struggles! Thank you for sharing your experience and perhaps you're evolving and now can offer more videos like this, but please keep me up on new and improve equipment that makes our passion much more easy and efficient so we can provide our best work! Bye the way, Congratulations on your recent announcement! Wishing you and your family well...

Great video. I've always wanted to do reviews and bike vlogs, but as you've mentioned, I struggle with wanting to be perfect or not knowing what to say. I guess that's more of a confidence issue than anything else.

It’s almost entirely psychological. Even as an introvert, I’ve found that the more I do it, the easier it gets.

As an introvert, extrovert person, I really dont talk as much as I would like too. Im quiet and laidback. I tried of ralking to the camera in my car but when i studdered, or thinking of what to say, I cut the camera off and said "this aint gon work" 😂 I you guys as KZreadr inspires me to want to create content.

Practice really does help, whether it’s talking to people or a camera. I find that the more I do it, the easier and more natural it feels.

Yes yes.. thanks for this clip.. i can't speak once the camera turn on on me! i really do look weird .. and discomfortable whenever the camera is turn on on me ... thanks for this tips

Thank you for this video. I also struggle with talking to the camera. I will have to rewatch this video multiple times. Also, I want to say your channel is one of the best channels I have found. You don't speak over my head; you speak to where I can understand it. We recently purchased the Osmo Pocket 3 with the DJI mic 2, and your videos have been a big help with different camera settings. Thank you so very much.

lol! Unfortunately I’m allergic to alcohol, so that wouldn’t work for me. But I agree about drinking a beverage first. A lot of mouth pops and smacks often happen because we’re dehydrated.

I recently discovered your channel and it's pretty great. If you're looking for honest criticisms on this video I found it a little weird how you often said " talk TO Camera" instead of "talk to THE Camera".....I found you mixed both of those phrases but weren't consistent.

Thanks for pointing that out. I know that I use phrases inconsistently when I go unscripted…something I need to work on!

You say better script the whole video than you say “don’t look at the selfie screen look at the lens” . …how can you look at the lens if you’re trying to read a script in the same time ?thank for the tips

Thanks for the heads up. What I like about your videos is NO profanity. I wll not watch a video or movie with profanity. I was a constuction worker and in the military. So I have heard everything under the sun. Thank you for the videos. Two thumbs up.

Definitely recommend spending a lot of time in pre-production, maybe even writing a script. That helped me so much in the beginning.
