Not surprisingly, I get asked "how to" questions about video all the time. In this solo episode, I share the 3 questions I get asked the most by consultants, entrepreneurs, and businesses that want to use video to build online visibility.
During the session, I talk about what equipment you actually need (it's not a lot) and how to save time during the video creation process. I also explain my 14-day BOCA method you can use to become more comfortable on camera.
Takeaways
🔹People often feel uncomfortable on camera due to overthinking.
🔹The BOCA method involves recording short videos daily for 14 days.
🔹Consistency in video creation leads to improvement over time.
🔹It's normal to dislike how you look or sound on video.
🔹A smartphone is sufficient for recording short videos.
🔹Investing in an external microphone enhances audio quality.
🔹Poor audio quality is less forgivable than poor video quality.
🔹Recording one line at a time saves time and reduces editing.
🔹Using a script or notes can streamline the recording process.
