BEGINNER’S GUIDE to CAMERA CONFIDENCE 2023 | How to talk to a camera for YouTube

[@EmilyEberhartt]

I thought I would be good at camera confidence and then I delayed recording for a month because I don't have camera confidence so now here I am :P I so appreciate your help!!

[@angelamanrique9416]

Gosh, this channel is SO underrated! Thank you so muchh

[@AprilynneAlter]

Aw thank you, I'm so glad you liked the vid :)

[@Miraj.Asghar]

In one of your video you said, "its just matter of time" it is so ture for you. Your videos are sssuuuperb. Its just matter of time.

[@AprilynneAlter]

Oh wow, thank you so much!! I really, really appreciate it 💙

[@ShatteredInsights]

Love this video, I’m part of a talk to camera group/course and this short video is almost better than the entire course. I thought this was really good information, so thank you. Subscribed to your channel, can’t wait to see more

[@AprilynneAlter]

This is one of the best comments I've ever received. I literally took a screenshot of it for me to look at later, when I'm feeling down about my content. I really, really appreciate it Steven

[@gareebeshaher2061]

Love the way you explain with honesty.

[@McRizzz]

I’m starting a KZbin channel and seriously struggle with camera confidence and how to plan out a video/script etc. I’ve watched lots of videos on the subject and yours had so many helpful ideas that I’ve never heard before, in any other KZbin videos. Can you please make videos about scripting and storytelling?

[@blissfulaf]

watched a few of your videos and and will probably all of them when i get time lol. just wanna say good job! just hearing someone else talk about all this helps. i seen your most recent video did amazing and i hope its all up from here for you!

[@CollegeFootballLegends]

As a new creator as well, this information is GOLD. Keep up the good work. 💯🙏🏾

[@VioletEmerald]

Your content is all so amazingly impressive and good that it doesn't surprise me that you script every line. That includes how detailed and informative and lacking filler or wasted time the videos are. You're very skilled at the art of performing the script so it sounds natural though and it doesn’t surprise me in part because I'm exactly like you. The bullet method isn't that helpful for me when i try it. It's hard for me to be a presenter at a conference, Podcaster, etc with even only the bullet points. I like to make sure i have the exact words. I'm about to start my first KZbin channel DND I've only recorded videos of myself a small handful of times before and never with the intention to share them that widely. I did find it weirdly hard especially since multiple times i had intensely short time constraints. I appreciate all this advice and am gonna really take it to heart

[@Skyknight0072]

Just wanted to add my 2 cents and say this video and this channel as a whole are giving me so many good tips and insights to grow my own channel and hopefully be monetized as well. I’m not in the same genre as you and I know it’s gonna be a struggle for me with lack of quality hardware and having to grow in a semi-saturated yet limited niche but these tips have helped give me greater confidence. Hopefully couple months down the line I can come back here and show much greater success with the things I’ve learned here. Much appreciated Aprilynne

[@60pluscrazy]

You're a good teacher as well, keep going. Best wishes for 2024 🎉

[@tenaciousoptimistcoaching]

Thank you so very much for the amazing tips you give to new KZbinrs like myself :) I love your tone ,it is very friendly and also the way you enunciate and explain things is so super user friendly :) Many many thanks !

[@verakace]

I tried for the first time filming myself and it was the most nerve wrecking experience thank you for this video! I felt I didn’t knew any English at all but I had one of the highest grades on Ielts I also tried in my native language and it was the same so I guess is my nerves??? I will try to name my camera like you said to see if I feel less awkward speaking to nowhere 😅😂

[@adrianvanleeuwen]

I agree writing the script in the same mannerisms as I talk works best as you mention in video. I need to work at freestyle as well, but scripting with prompter works best for me.

[@TheXxsuperxxchickxx]

I don’t think I want to be a content creator but I think the psychology that goes into it is interesting. BTW I would also script everything if I had to choose lol you don’t sound like you’re reading from a script

[@RailWeekly]

Your content is so helpful. Thank you so much!

[@ArmineShirinyan-u4n]

your videos are amazing. Thank you for putting the time and effort into eacb one,

[@DiabeticGameGuy]

Wow, totally doesn't feel like you're using a script. You are amazing at that. I'm still in the grocery store computer level, but I want to get better.

[@TommyDavidVerbal]

Impressive

[@Dlmaniac8]

[@AprilynneAlter]

[@pettervaxjo]

[@Icecream-s8e]

Girl 👧 you spitting knowledge ❤

[@JustinMemphis42]

[@AprilynneAlter]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@piximdesign]

I have one questions how do you memorize the scripts, how do you memorize and say record same script,..?

[@SlotZofFUN]

Awesome content. Nice and direct. I noticed equipment listed, may I ask what software you use to edit? Slotz channel with lots of visiual competition. Thank you for what you do. 🎉

[@piximdesign]

How do you read script while recording for youtube video

[@Manycartoons18]

I love this video but how I have to work to grow my channel

[@jensschmidt]

Great tips, although for tip 8, it's the exact opposite for me. I hate giving a presentation to two, three or five people - but hosting a grand ball with 500 paying attendees? No problem. Why? Because then I can "de-personalize" the whole spiel. Two, three or five people is a very intimate group where I can see all reactions. 500 people? That's a blurry mass of people that just becomes background noise to my ramblings ;-)
