Teleprompter Practice - Advanced - Words beginning with F

[@stargazernight6645]

I couldn't stop laughing at the amount of 'F' words you inserted in those sentences 🤣

I can't believe you actually did my ferret request. Thank you so much. I have had so much fun reading it (such a good concept too with all the F vocabularies). Love your channel and keep up the good work!

The option of using word for word script usually leads to eye contact confusion in front of camera. I found PPT MIRROR tool to convert Powerpoint slides into teleprompter software therefore I maintain eye contact and sound natural on camera because I always have the whole concept in mind and I don't follow word-for-word.

Not sure I understand the eye contact confusion comment. If someone has the script in front of the teleprompter there is no confusion on where to look. However what I've found is that if someone is thinking what to say they tend to look left or right as a subconscious tell that they are searching for the right thing to say. However everyone is different, so the key is to be flexible and not force a solution on anyone. I've had shoots where we have agreed a teleprompter script, then binned the whole device because the talent was so confident and assured they just didn't either that, or any bullet points. Rare - but it does happen :) If your solution works for you then it is the correct one.

I agree - loads of people trip up on these.

i stammer a little...any advice from any professional pls...btw im just in school i just wanted to learn this randomly

[@BigAntVideo]

It's an interesting issue. Often using a teleprompter can make the problem worse, so people with a stutter can try using a set of bullets they talk around, rather than a nailed down script. I think if you stutter at all, and a teleprompter is being used, then you need the script well in advance to practice and get familiar with, and when you're actually reading off the prompter, focus on your breathing - keep calm and measured, and try to feel the emotion and rhythm of what you're trying to communicate, rather than purely the text. Also make the crew aware of your stutter, so they might make an extra effort to be patient, and create a calmer environment for you before the shoot. They will also be prepared for a slightly slower delivery - as you are probably aware slowing down your speech can help with a stutter, With a real teleprompter, the operator follows you - so you set the pace. If you need to pause - pause. The operator will wait with you.

At the beginning I'm doubting whether there's really "F", not until it happens, all i can say if "F" 😂
