Great Advice Thomas Thanks

[@isloooboy]

I am working behind the Camera so far and little bit shy kind of personality which is not allowing me to come in front of camera yet BUT.... I wish to reveal myself as soon as possible so people know me too after knowing my work. SO your these TIPS regarding how to talk to Camera are very useful for me before filming myself. Thanks for it and keep bringing more and more for us and wish you good luck See Ya SOON!

[@IanSolano]

Great tips, mate. Thank you.

[@milijacabarkapa4408]

Very simple and useful tips and tricks dude. Thanks...

[@tismeDenis]

State management is the (pre key) to any future 'take on' that you want to embrace. Good video thanks

[@silentvoiceofjustice1480]

Great advice again Thomas. Thank you for sharing.

[@riccardosforza]

Thank you for this video! Extremely helpful bro!

[@RaffyChang]

Very informative video thank you for sharing..

[@JoeCoastal]

Thanks Thomas. A variant on your socialising tip, I think I will try phoning someone before I start filming next time. I'll also try the breathing.

[@CEDRICCHALOPIN]

Excellent video Thomas, as always 👍

[@AsuBalo_dulich]

thanks for your sharing

[@Sahabatcreatif]

[@you82.League]

it was so useful thank you i really had problems with talking to the camera since i started my youtube channel and didn't know how to act and it jus wasn't me on the camera acting like a depressed guy tnx for your guide :)

[@maycielvillaluz7064]

It's a big help amazing tips. Very informative and easy to understand what you talk all about. Thank you for making this video available .to learn from your channel is make me interesting and motivated to do some video.

[@ProKinno]

I ride the bike every morning before shooting a vlog! It does make a difference when speaking to the camera after sweating haha

[@misslayer999]

Super easy Breath Practice to activate the parsympathetic nervous system(PSNS): Inhale, slowly and deeply 4 seconds + hold it 4 + exhale 6 . Repeat at least 10 times...and chill! One of the easiest ways to calm your body+mind and take you out of "fight or flight" mode. Stops anxiety, So you can chil, relax and be in the present moment. Great tips overall, TY I really need to utilize physical activity. I mean I know it works, I just keep procrastinating... Fuck it, not today. At the very least ill longboard down the street and back lol

[@JandeBloois1952]

Great tips! I sung on a choir long ago, and before practicing we always did similar practices, and also practices to 'loosen' our vocal chords, lips and tongue. And then we started singing!

[@kailikameoka4915]

Number 2 makes a lot of sense. I feel more talkative after I’ve been around oriole. I also performed better on camera when I was on a team recursive a video podcast.

[@bulliongrowernz1975]

Great! Soo True!!

[@TrekkingPals]

Looking forward to take your film making class in the near future.

[@pettervaxjo]

Thank you

[@OuterSpacesWales]

Picture yourself, you're in a busy high street and you come to a complete stop outside one of the busiest shops. You reach into your pocket and pull out a piece of Lego. You hold it at arms length, and you start talking to it - That's how I would feel even in a room all on my own. I have to admire and look up to people that can do this, either in public or by themselves. Cheers, Thomas 👍

[@J_Hills]

The best way I can look at it is, imagine the camera for what it is. It's your audience. You're talking to people, even if it's just a camera at the time. If people ask what you're doing, just tell them! Some of those people won't understand, but that's ok. :)

[@samuelwoithon]

I think there’s no MasterClass until now about talking to camera... 🤔 Think you would make a great job

[@Intotheoutdoors69]

Thanks Thomas it all makes sense 😁👍

[@onevoiceinc]

Exercise... lost me there... not sure what you mean. All the same, I am tracking what you're saying. Good advice. I sometimes do similar approaches before singing before a crowd. Guess I should be applying the same idea to the camera.

[@loveyou-mc6yb]

Y Nice bro My fev.. KZbinr❤️

[@TrueSelfDiscovered]

I really like how short your videos are! Right to the point! Do you find better results with this time length then others?

[@shrillvision8254]

Thank you..! 👍

[@IWriteDrama]

Great tips, Thomas. Thanks for the advice. Also, put a cine cam on the end of that tripod for those bicep curls. Better results. :P

[@4amwaj]

so good

[@lukascampen]

Thanks for the advise! Compared to your other videos I did find this one to be a little too much talking for too few information. Love your channel and would appreciate if you stick to a more condensed style of delivering knowledge ;)

[@prosocialdistancer]

5:00 that's me

[@NathanHesselman]

Great video just grabbed your filmmaking class and I’m looking forward to working through it great job putting out so much content :)

[@thebluediamondgamer3634]

I think I remember your old yt channel

[@TheXaminedLife]

Useful information. Some I had not heard before. However, clicking on the link, or entering it into google search, results in a message that "This site can’t provide a secure connection." and I can't get to the site.

[@Adriana.Gabriela]

"This is not a fitness channel (yet)". I bet that gimbal of yours would disagree 😂

[@IntresInk]

Yo off topic what do u use for your hair

[@TheHummingbird876]

👀👀👀 do you have some satellite on me...or have you been reading my mental diary? This is me. I've slacked off on working out, stay in my room all day, I don't go anyway...before covid. Hm, pretty good video. Sure hit the nail on the head.

[@anonnimus]

Great video. Concise, actionable, and to the point. Simple suggestion on your background. A little less light. Darken the room a bit, just an accent light on the wood. Help yourself stand out from the background. Don't clutter too much. Not sure how much blur you put into the background. More is better but not too much either. Remember, background accent light is opposite side of you, from the key light in front of you. I . @ *

[@ThomasAlexNorman]

Good tips man, thanks!

[@raduhimself]

man please share with us your abs exercise routine please :)

[@davidkinorani]

Socializing? What is that? How do you talk to people without Teams/Zoom or my computer?

[@JetSurfingNation]

Thank you again for great tips! could you give some tips where to find good callout text animation for premier? i know in essensial graphics there are some but all are pretty basic ones

[@Barloggg]

yes, you are right.all problems is because man is not present. you may add another tip - just walk around you home until you will be present.

[@liveshotsvideoproductions]

...or keep a bag of white powder behind your cheat sheet! (lol)

[@Fitnhealthyab]

do you script or outline. im having a hard time talking to the camera cause i hate reading scripts and if i outline i think too much..

[@anirudhsatavalekar9502]

❤️😊👌🏻

[@tootsllaneta4753]

Inhale slowly and deeply then exhale through your mouth while chanting these mantra GAUR RA ANG GA.🙏 This is called mantra 🧘‍♀️ meditation.

[@WayraSacha]

Haha man get to the freaking point! 3:45 it starts.. its so helpful when youtubers dont waste theirs and ours time.

[@starr8111]

Thank u

[@aedankelly]

It's mostly youtube's itself fault though because you need 8 mins in order to get midroll ads and the creators need the money from somewhere. Here he added 2 midrolls so this is tripling the amount of money he would've made from ad revenue.

[@WayraSacha]

@@aedankelly fair point, I see

[@franciscohestnes]

I don't know who the fuck you are but I'm subscribed so you must be good.

[@Fitnhealthyab]

how to you think so fast as you talk to explain stuff.

[@m34tba11]

yah, "Motion creates Emotion" When I do 1 on 1 with my directs, we do a walking 1:1. When we move we get more blood flow to the brain, we are more energetic etc. As well anytime I need to sort something, I go for a walk.. great tips!
