@bonusfootage type “sprint” and i’ll send the “15 Day Yap Sprint Challenge” (waitlist) where I send you an email a day with prompts for talking on camera with confidence. now back to @hubs.life_ , let’s make it totally clear, i commend what he is doing. the best content strategy is to find joy in what you’re doing so you can make it sustainable. in order to do that, you need to test, experiment, and evolve. i LOVE his willingness to try new stuff. #2 he’s totally fine without my ideas, but i wanted to share incase they could help other creators who are thinking about starting to talk on camera. here are ten more tips for yapping: 1. run every video through the “so what” test from the book “get to the point” 2. cut saying “guys” and talk to one person. 3. speed, tone, and volume should match the message. (I have videos on how to practice this) 4. film when you’re “activated” to capture your enthusiasm (fresh off a conversation or experience where you need to share your thinking) 5. people don’t want advice, they want clarity 6. your energy is more important than your lighting, that doesn’t mean performing, it does mean experimenting with your unique on-camera presence 7. if you don’t script, at least know your three bullet points. if you’re not feeling it, the audience won’t either. 8. utility over everything. you’re moving from entertaining to talking head. every video should seek to be useful for your audience 9. your “Chapter 2” video is a treasure trove of talking points. Expand on those points in the video in a way that the audience can think about their own lives. Gives us a directors commentary, filming tips, mindset stuff for your first 10 videos. 10. your words should be as intentional as your scenes/cuts were in your old videos. keep thriving and put the camera on your face!
