[@farmermarshall]

Take notes on your videos! I learned a bunch on this video that I wouldn't remember if I didn't take notes. Biggest takeaway - Your body sends messages to viewers that are positive or negative.

[@unboundbytiffany]

You were a chair swiveler. Hahaha. That was my takeaway. Hahah

[@daniel_nduku]

The warmth and competence ques

[@JevonCooks]

For me it was how the to be real, personal and professional. 😊

[@Relaxingpeacefulcalming]

She's too smart for you ...

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Thank you so much for having me on the show! Hope it was helpful for folks

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Thank you for adding so much value! Appreciate you Vanessa!

[@Mike_Virata]

I've taken more notes in this interview than any video. Vanessa, you totally called your audience, that's me. I also bought both of your books, and I'm a big fan. Thanks for the information, I'm about to start a KZbin channel.

[@DominicQuintanilla]

Beyond helpful! Probably one of the most valuable videos I have seen.

[@UGPVlogsLA]

Thank you Vanessa! And congratulations on the growth of your channel…

[@NobodysFaultPodcast]

Thank you for this great information!

[@shannonskiptomylife]

Sean I am always impressed by how skillfully and respectfully you conduct these interviews. Thank you for giving us access to these incredible insights!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Thanks for the kind words and feedback. Appreciate you Shannon!

[@eyesonindie]

One of the most valuable interviews you've done, and your interviews are always amazing so that's saying a lot. I think the "recovering awkward person" probably describes a ton of people on KZbin. I think a lot of us introverts turn to KZbin because it is a venue where we can share our ideas with the world - finally - but in a controlled way. We can have scripts, we can edit. So I think this will be a home run interview for a lot of us. 😉 THANK YOU Think Media!!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

So glad this was valuable. Appreciate you Sarah!

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Oh my goodness I am so honored to help!

[@dranipani]

Facts! --- PS: Sorry for my closeness in the thumbnail...

[@ColorismHealing]

All of this explains why I think my live streams helped my channel grow. I exude so much more warmth and not at all rehearsed compared to my edited videos. Been a fan of Vanessa for awhile! Great collab!

[@maplewoodhomestead2017]

Long keywords in chapters. Also spacing of my body and the camera. I am so thankful because this verified for me a lot of what I have naturally started doing. This helps me trust my instincts.

[@SevenMinutesWithCheryl2]

I’ve never heard of her, but this video was probably the most informative and interesting video I’ve seen in months. Thank you so much!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Woohoo! Nice to meet you!

[@NobodysFaultPodcast]

Agreed. I'm going to look up more of her content. Very helpful!

[@PTOforLIFE]

She's amazing!

[@AndyColeman]

Wow this is the best interview I've ever seen on KZbin about learning how to do KZbin!

[@andyxfilms]

100%

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Oh my goodness thank you!

[@2cuteclassroom]

I absolutely agree💯

[@HEY-ITS-COREY]

For the first time ever...I listened to this podcast this morning on my commute and now I am watching the video tonight to make sure I did not miss anything. So much goodness here. 😎

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Yay!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

🔥🔥🔥

[@AwakeningGlobalEntreprenuers]

"Scripting Is The Death Of Charisma." Soooo Blew My Mind! Thank Youuuu Sean For This Diamond Piece Of Content! God Bless!

[@ConsolingYourMind]

You know it’s crazy how much that all these points goes into making a great vid and getting results. People don’t realize. Seans knowledge about KZbin is so valuable

[@SaintJohnButler]

Without hesitation I’d say this was the best episode to date. I’ll probably have to watch it a couple more times to get all the nuggets that are in there. Thank you both!

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Thank you so much!

[@GarageGear]

This is just what I’m looking for! Great content! BIG Thanks to the entire Think Team!

[@andyxfilms]

Super helpful content!

[@JensuyaBellyDance]

Only a quarter way through, and thank you, Sean and Vanessa! Such spectacular advice. 💕 Sean, you were literally the first channel I studied before starting my channel 6 years ago. It's been slow growing, but making progress (granted, I don't work full time on it. 😂) And yes, I do have your book, KZbin Secrets. 😉

[@mattiasgriot]

Sorry for double posting...would like to give a shoutout to Vanessa for your really excellent delivery.

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Appreciate it. She is awesome!

[@greggillson388]

Can’t miss with Vanessa!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

She is a legend.

[@Azeltix]

31:50 This Tip is awesome ! I could totally see you during a Zoom conference, because this high pitch voice is so typical ! Thanks

[@Afrovazi]

The nuggets I have picked from this video am going to run with it for my KZbin success... Just got started, thank you! 😊

[@JDavisGuitar]

I think the trick with teleprompters is to NOT use them in a robotic way. It’s important to rehearse with your teleprompter. I use them as a way to pace,structure,eliminate filler words.

[@13thStreetKC]

Recently found you - obsessed with the value (me taking notes like a kid in school). THANKS!

[@theplaylabchicago]

I appreciate her explanations and detailed description!

[@feliciagrinie]

This was one of the most practical and yet helpful videos I've watched in a long time. I loved that I can walk away from those and have something I can implement today with only myself as the tool. Thank you both so much.

[@akeelhassanvideo]

WOW. This was so insightful, not just for creators that vlog but how to get a hang on being more confident in everyday speaking. Just awesome!

[@homemakingwithdenise]

This woman is amazing! So much good information.

[@bertyblaze]

Just bought the book, thanks for the recommendation.

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@mamaworkn3717]

this video is informative its taken me 2 days to go through this and REALLY take it in.. whew thankful.

[@AlexWGomez]

This is some of the BEST KZbin advice on the internet. So important! This is the alpha I’ve been looking for. Thank you 🙏

[@mattiasgriot]

Wow! Incredible interview. Everyone should watch this. And I mean literally everyone would have value out of this information. Your podcast is my main go to podcast when commuting to/from work.

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Thank you thank you!

[@GeologyDude]

This was an exceptional interview with lots of awesome information.

[@frugalcreativeliving]

Great video! So informative! I will say that using a teleprompter and still appearing authentic definitely requires some skill. Late night TV show hosts have been using cue cards and teleprompters for ages but they know how to look away from it periodically to make it seem like they're not reading. Scripting and using a teleprompter is too helpful not to employ it as a tool sometimes. But some training videos on how to use a teleprompter and still be natural would help a lot.

[@swixdon]

Wow, this lady's acting is so next-level. Wow. The impressions, both of other people and herself. Amazing

[@Officialflymedia]

I don’t typically watch the podcast as much as I should. I’m binging heavy today, have watched 3 episodes. I’m gonna tune in live from now on

[@tinyhomenetworking]

This lady has some GREAT info. Very valuable ❤

[@mattspadesoundandvision]

This was really helpful advice. Most of this I do on my channel but I certainly learned a lot and got an extra boost of confidence.

[@mercurious6699]

Outstanding, she's a true legend. Thanks so much for this video, great value!

[@gigworkmama]

that was soooooo good! The intonation of your voice at the beginning of your video, the spacing, everything! So so good

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Oh thank you so much!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

🔥🔥🔥

[@EvenSoItIsWell]

Such great content! Thanks so much for this interview.

[@andyxfilms]

I found a ton of value in this content too - definitely going to apply it to my channel.

[@Monefsjungle]

The examples of what hun, hero and help content look like in different scenarios was incredibly helpful.

[@Monefsjungle]

Hub not hun!

[@FoundationBibleStudies]

I’m saving this episode for sure, she’s speaking my language(s)😊

[@anatomiadahistoria]

Incredible value! A masterclass with top pros!

[@ToriksLV]

Oh man what a golden nugget this info is for someone who is learning cameras and presentations.

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Yay!

[@policestuff911llc]

Great video. I learned some things that I need to change. Very informative.

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Glad this was valuable. Appreciate you!

[@TheLastHonestInfluencer]

Using these to psychologically trick my viewers TODAY!!! Thank you!!!!

[@AngelsEdgeOfficial]

I don't always watch how-to videos. I'm listening, though. I personally don't care if she leans over. Your vocal delivery is more important to me. I have a lot of things I have to do during the day, so I'm generally listening to videos like this while working on other projects.

[@lucasgregorio_]

She's pure GOLD! Amazing content delivered, very valuable

[@ScienceOfPeople]

Thank you!

[@enefwe]

This is the best interview at ThinkMedia I watched so far. I keep watching, pause, taking notes, play again! Very very informative and inspiring. Thanks a lot Sean and Vanessa 🎉

[@123.MikeCheck]

Great interview. Such valuable insight and perspectives.

[@EdFaulknerJr]

OK, when you reenacted the different intro’s you tried, I found myself LEANING into the screen to absorb everything you were saying and doing!! Thus proving your earlier point of… leaning in!! Great video!! Thanks Vanessa (and Sean for introducing us to her!).

[@molliesuits]

Really great video. Thank you! I took Vanessa's course and loved it! Very helpful.

[@theultimatefarmwife]

Amazing tips. Loved that these were unique and super helpful! Sean I’d love to hear more about the playlist linking in like videos first time I’ve hear you can do this.

[@d3xm3x]

This lady gave some great info. Thank you both for the interview.

[@andyxfilms]

These are great tips and reminders! Loved everything about this episode. Thank you for putting this together!

[@zhan_velvet]

This is super useful ❤ thank you Sean for this amazing guest 😊

[@iamjordanrhea]

Loved this! Great notes. Thanks!!!

[@iamcoreymcclain]

Using longtail keywords for chapters in a video is a nugget, I hope nobody misses.

[@andyxfilms]

I def have to go back and adjust some of my chapters - thank you for the reminder!

[@rebelholiday5010]

Outstanding and extremely helpful! Thank you Vanessa and Sean!

[@ScienceOfPeople]

You are welcome!

[@jjn6914]

Super insightful. I'm interested in the lifestyle vlog type content creators who don't follow any of these tips. Would love to know what the secret sauce is behind those. They don't do hub, help, etc. or formulaic videos. Just aesthetic, scenic chats with no pattern in the type of content they create. A couple I follow each have about a million subscribers and get 100k views easily in the first few hours. I wonder if the only secret sauce there is authenticity.

[@Marketinginhereyes]

One on my favorite pods from think media 🙌🏽

[@angelodiego8994]

I think that's so very helpful to all KZbin creators and very exciting to how KZbin creators to be successful and thank you for the lesson how KZbin creators success.

[@mastwheel]

Thank you so much for sharing these awesome strategies. Even before I finished watching the video, I ordered Vanessa's book! One question I have as I'm listening--would it be possible to provide the links to any of the research studies that Vanessa references?

[@laszlopetergyarmati6279]

I love her. Pure gold. The advice on intonation especially resonated with me. Wish more YTers would take her advice. ;-)

[@karissajones2294]

The tip on including videos from other creators on your playlist is 🔥

[@JensuyaBellyDance]

Superb! Thank you!

[@Mr.Speechy]

I love her tips at the end!

[@JackieDElia]

Loved this episode! Amazing and very helpful. I just started my channel and will put these tips to work tomorrow! ❤

[@HolisticKitchen]

Loved, loved this interview! ❤ Super informative and extremely valuable tips. Thanks so much to both of you.

[@FaithandTrustinChrist]

Love this video! I'm a pastor who's page has exploded in less than 5 weeks. One video is approaching 440,000 views. Several are between 15,000 and 28,000. Still, recently, many of my videos tanked within 48 hours after launching strongly. I'm watching them over to see if there is an issue with capturing interest that caused. Although, I'm confident this is the issue. Maybe it was the 4th of July holiday weekend? It feels strange to me this is suddenly happening. Nonetheless, I share all that to say thank you @ScienceOfPeople for sharing this incredible and informative knowledge with us. Blessings to you and Sean! ~ Don

[@InvestorsHeaven]

Really great interview, lots of great tips and strategies, thank you !

[@domehouse79]

Measuring the distance between your nose and camera is great in theory. But some important info to give would be to take into account which sensor size a users camera is, and which lens they are using. It might have helped if she had a particular focal length lens and sensor size that she uses herself. However that is a great tip she give.

[@olaars]

This is some extremely valuable stuff. Thank you so much for this interview!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Glad it was helpful!

[@UncleScottsKitchen]

One of the most helpful videos I have seen.

[@ronaldhendersonakathefitne8806]

I enjoyed your video and agree with everything that you said I make it a point to be genuine in all of my videos

[@RosemariesHeart]

This was great information. I learned so much!

[@KicksTV.]

Wow Sean , this is why I listen to you Sean , if it wasn’t for this I wouldn’t be were I’m at thank u ones again and happy Holidays 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙃…

[@jclairexo]

What a great interview! I love both yours and Vanessa’s channels, you both create such helpful content🙂I just bought the book & I can’t wait to read it!!

[@LeadWithAdam]

Vanessa is fantastic! I’ve been a fan for many years of her content.

[@PaulChambersCo]

Excellent interview! I’ve never seen a bad VVE interview and this is no exception. Packed full of actionable advice and tactics. I took a page worth of notes. 🙌🏼

[@karissajones2294]

Excellent tips! Thank you.

[@Lori.Miller]

Gold. Beautiful. Vanessa, you communicate effortlessly and in a beautiful way! It's hard to believe that you once stuggled socially. And kudos to you for studying the topic, researching and practicing all of the nuances of communication to have, I would say, mastered it! Well done young lady!

[@infinitelife1797]

This is by far one of the best videos and interviews on your channel. As a student of thinkmedia and fan of your work Sean- this was super powerful with so many gold nuggets in every single input Vanessa has given. will be repeat watching this video and taking notes. Thankyou thankyou.

[@Nancymusic1717]

Every question i have been wondering about is answered in this podcast wow ! Thanks think media and Vanessa van edwards! I was thinking about thumbnails if i should use a fake or a real background.. question answered!

[@tyee.5023]

Every time your gestures are lying, my first impression isn't to believe your gestures- its "wtf?" 😂 Gets me every time

[@farid4685]

Hello, great content! What program are you using to record this virtual podcast?

[@808.ladybugs]

🌺Wow! love this video and Vanessa has a new subscriber. This is something I need to be more comfortable on camera. Mahalo!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

Welcome! 💛

[@JunyNoLimit]

This is 💎

[@workdetox]

What a great and usefull video ! Thank you 😊

[@Brian_Chui]

Fantastic, I’ve read it like the fact that you have dialed down the entertainment/humor portion of your video content it makes it much easier for audience like myself to watch without having the fear of needing to skip those moments, because personally, I came here for information, and this video is exactly what I needed so thank you for such good work 🙏🏻

[@deanrobertcrabb]

An important point I'd love to add to this: over rehearsal can indeed reduce speaker authenticity, BUT some of us are much better than others at very authentic yet rehearsed material. It's just how some brains work. I have ALWAYS rehearsed speaking ever since I was a small child and to fail to do so would be inauthentic - even dishonest. We're all different. Let's get lots of input but know ourselves. "To thyself be true." Thanks, Think Media. FanTASTic content! -- Dean Crabb - YT, FB, IG

[@andyxfilms]

I remember relying on scripts too much and it would actually kill my cadence and made me appear less knowledgeable, finding a happy medium is key! I've moved to bullet points for my personal content where I want to showcase the true me & I save 100% scripting for the corporate shooting stuff I do at work.

[@_Michael_Head_]

Agree!

[@deanrobertcrabb]

@@andyxfilms Yes! I'm getting better so bullet points should usually be enough for social media personality stuff. Thank you for taking a moment here.

[@theultimatefarmwife]

Love this interview ❤ thank you. Great powerful tips

[@CorazonDesignsandpeople]

Awesome video. Thanks so much for sharing ❤❤❤

[@Mr-Psychologist]

This is what we want ❤

[@AnupamMondal.]

This is so valuable information ❤.Thank you so much

[@Kingpay10_]

As always. Thanks for the endless knowledge!

[@workinprogress3329]

As someone that talks with her hands this was nice to hear 🤣

[@madon6586]

This is by far my favorite video. 😊

[@DrumThruDriveIn]

Wow. GREAT video and GREAT insight! I'm discovering Vanessa here, for the first time. Thank you Vanessa and Sean!!

[@RondellKB]

With regard to the distance from the camera, how will that work with different focal lengths?

[@MatsuXL]

100% disagree about her take on the teleprompter comment at 14:36 I think this is subjective. There are many people who can use a teleprompter for guiding their script and still carry charisma, body language, and come off natural. Just because she had a hard time and felt robotic does not imply everyone will.

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

True. I agree... the key would be keeping delivery and cues strong. I think Phil DeFranco uses a teleprompter.

[@ScienceOfPeople]

If you can do it charismatically that's awesome! I am jealous - I wish I could do a teleprompter without looking like a robot.

[@StefaniRoseMartin]

What an amazing interview! Super helpful tips and insights creators might be missing in the creation of their videos. The nerdy theater director / Yale Drama actress in me LOVED it. Thanks for clearly articulating and sharing all this knowledge! Totally worth listening to the whole interview!

[@johnclay7644]

good long form interview. informative content.
