Obey Your Thirst<\/h3>\n<p>How could this tip not be at the top of our list? Whether we\u2019re nervous, filming in a dry location, or simply not used to speaking so much, anyone can fall victim to dry mouth.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to avoid quenching your thirst in the middle of filming, the keys are prevention and preparation. Be sure to drink plenty of water before you begin filming, and during breaks throughout the production process.<\/p>\n<p>If that\u2019s still not enough, consider working a &#8220;sip break\u201d into your video. If timed correctly, and done in a relaxed manner, taking a small sip of water can feel very natural. It also can give viewers\u00a0an extra second or two to process\u00a0after you say\u00a0something particularly profound.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"think-arctic-vs-tropical\">2. Think Arctic vs. Tropical<\/h3>\n<p>While we certainly don\u2019t encourage filming in a parka (unless, of course, that makes sense for your video), we do suggest you keep the temperature on set\u00a0on the chillier side. With the heat of lights, and the fact that most of us sweat under pressure, keeping your thermostat set to low can help you keep your cool.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"every-video-stars-drugstore-shopping-list\">3. Every Video Star\u2019s Drugstore Shopping List<\/h3>\n<p>Despite the fact that it is now 53 years old, most are familiar with the sweaty, uncomfortable look sported by President Richard Nixon during his debate with President John F. Kennedy in 1960.<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gbrcRKqLSRw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Do not walk into this easily avoidable, yet all too common, blunder! Unlike Nixon, who refused to wear foundation, Kennedy understood the importance of appearance when your audience can see you.<\/p>\n<p>Simply apply powder to avoid glistening on camera. While picking up powder at the drugstore, don\u2019t forget to grab anti-frizz hair serum to tame unruly fly-aways, and Chapstick to keep your lips properly moistened while speaking.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"distractions-be-gone\">4. Distractions, Be Gone!<\/h3>\n<p>Before filming, turn your cellphone off, take loose change out of your pockets, remove\u00a0clunky jewelry, choose a sturdy\u00a0chair if you\u2019re seated, and banish anyone\u00a0not directly involved in the production process. You will benefit from\u00a0improved concentration if it\u2019s just you and those equally invested in the filming process.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"x-marks-the-spot\">5. X Marks the Spot<\/h3>\n<p>Generally speaking, you do not want to move around in a video because it can be distracting for your audience and difficult to control your background scenery. However, if you must walk from one spot to another, make it easier on yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Using chalk, draw an \u201cX\u201d on the floor of the spot(s) to which you\u2019ll need to move. It may seem silly now, but when you\u2019re speaking on camera, remembering even small details like where to stop can prove challenging. In most cases, your feet are not being filmed so your viewers will ever know the difference.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Enemies in Disguise<\/h3>\n<p>Solid green and blue can look fantastic on camera but before you don either of these colors, ensure that you will not be using chroma keying front of a green or blue screen\u2026<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7Qx5xJHx5aw\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Unless the floating head look is what you\u2019re after.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"speaking-of-attire\">7. Speaking of Attire\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>Stripes and small or busy patterns look awful on camera and can even hurt people\u2019s eyes. Don\u2019t be that guy or gal.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, stay away from whites, pastels, nudes, reds, and blacks as these colors obscure the human form on camera unless they&#8217;re really fitted. In other words, you risk looking like a blob.<\/p>\n<p>Rich shades of blue, purple, and green (as long as you\u2019re not working against a green screen) stand up well on camera.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"video-au-naturale\">8. Video Au Naturale<\/h3>\n<p>You already know how important it is to sound like you are talking to your audience, rather than at them, when you create your video. What you may not realize, however, is how rehearsed and unnatural you may sound if you memorize a script word for word.<\/p>\n<p>The same is true if you rely on a teleprompter. You run the risk of sounding like a robot.<\/p>\n<p>To avoid this, either write your own script, or have a hand in editing it, to ensure the words\u00a0roll right off your tongue when filming. Then, rather than memorizing your script, rehearse it a few times until you&#8217;ve got the gist of it. Next, write\u00a0a bulleted list of key points on a piece of poster board (held up behind the camera) to reference during filming, ensuring you stay on track.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"sharing-the-camera\">9. Sharing the Camera<\/h3>\n<p>If you are not the only star of your online video, take extra time to rehearse and gather feedback from the other stars of the show. Remain open to creating a different version of your original script if it makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>Camaraderie is difficult to fake. If you and your fellow video talent are familiar with one another\u2019s speaking style, it will bode well for your final product. Additionally, through rehearsals, you may find you deliver a line better than the person it was originally written for, and vice-versa.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"have-a-good-time\">10. Have a Good Time!<\/h3>\n<p>Relax. Smile. Laugh. Blast your favorite song and dance around like a maniac to shake off your nerves. It&#8217;s ok if this is done using ear buds and alone in your office!<\/p>\n<p>Your viewers are watching your video not to critique you, but because they like what you have to offer. Don\u2019t work yourself up.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>What are some obvious tips that people often forget when creating new online videos?
