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.

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.

[@ginalewis6731]

Strongly agree!

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

[@ThreeTwentyTech]

The most underrated skill in 2022 is *being productive*

[@Rampage1Rules]

Recorded my first video the other day & I realised how important this skill is

[@Everything__AI]

Being Camera sky is normal especially with introverts. However with consistent showing up on camera will help you be less camera shy.

[@sophiaisabelle027]

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.

[@deutschmitpurple2918]

True, he is really great

[@astatine0085]

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

[@PostiveMascunlinity]

I've always have confidence on camera, KZbin is good as people can see your truth.

[@FixItOnTheWay]

Thanks!

[@helloimnirmala]

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.

Ali never fails to deliver. Thanks Ali for these tips👍🏾

[@on9francisyu]

He is very good

[@clivengu]

This guy is so good at everything... including SINGING!

[@KathBorup]

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.🎉

[@adrianvanleeuwen]

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.

[@TheJoeCozzoShow]

Ali, what type of lens are you using in this video? I love the entire setup!

[@5canwalk]

For me, it's energy. Do I have the energy to sustain beyond 3 uploads. Which is linked to motivation. May one day...

Skills it matters😍

[@grahamerwhamer]

Very thankful for you

[@WanderingMine]

Thanks very helpful as always.

[@alix_xavier]

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

[@SpillogSnakk]

Great video 🙂

[@yuda4725]

I think one of the good ways to get confident is actually to get bored. If you got bored, that means it doesn’t entertain you, but also doesn’t make you nervous anymore.

[@willpalmeer]

Could I recommend changing the title to 2023? I think it’ll attract more people to watch :) epic vid man

[@tuhaisefrank]

Good work Ali Abdaal,

[@nitinkumar6913]

Just discovered your free courses in the description.... Yeah gotta watch them all

[@creatoratplay]

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!!

[@rachelmoss1967]

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.

[@creatoratplay]

Will try that! Thank you!@@rachelmoss1967
