In a company, it is unlikely that all employees were born with the skill set of the perfect small speaker. However, this does not mean that they should be left in their corner. Florent - sales representative at EasyMovie - shows you how to properly prepare any interlocutor in front of a camera.
It may sound very ambitious said that way but at EasyMovie everyone is likely to pass in front of the camera at any time. Nor do you think that all Easymovians are always on the alert, but let's say that everyone has been able to get used to their own rhythm.
Even if watching a corporate movie you don't expect to find the future rising star of Hollywood, you have to face the facts: a good speaker will always be more convincing than a bad one... Nevertheless, before making your interlocutor the star of your company, you need to know what it means” Be a good speaker ”.
A good speaker, therefore, is first of all someone who does not cry while the camera is running... Ask him to smile at least without wincing if you do not want to give a depressive and too formal image of your company. If her smile is too forced, try telling her a joke that you think is funny. The ways of put a speaker at ease are very numerous.
If we had to keep one and only criterion to define a good speaker, it would be that of The joint. Pay attention to the flow of words as well as to the correct pronunciation of words during a shoot. If you are not attentive enough to this, two choices are available to you when you receive your video: you publish it and nobody understands it or you remake the video... To choose well - even if it's the kind of choice we would like to never have to make - we give you a clue -: don't take it easy.
These criteria - relatively well known, we admit - can just be achieved much more easily by respecting all the advice given by dear Florent. If you think about sending the script beforehand, getting some water to drink before shooting or reviewing the text with your speaker, the speaker will no longer have to think about anything other than his smile and his expression. We can then say that the hardest part is over.
All for what?
Again, we are not intended to introduce you to fire but assume that your speaker, when you put him in the foreground of a video, becomes the image of your company. Far be it from us to put pressure on you to choose the best possible speaker, on the contrary. We said it so we might as well repeat it: Anyone working is legitimate in front of a camera. As we said at the beginning, no one expects to see the Deniro from the corporate movie when they watch what you share on LinkedIn.
The Internet user basically hopes to see someone whose shirt won't hurt their eyes, and for that we refer you to the Anna's tutorial which gives you all the secrets to tidy up your Special filming dressing, and whose speech is as clear as it is intelligible.
Do you understand? If you need more, do not hesitate to look at the advice of Ludiwine, who also has some tips to help you Relax your speaker before a video.
With that, we let you review your texts and outfits before shooting to send us the results. We have no doubt that you will succeed now.
