Video and Audio Production

Many a good video is ruined by poor audio.

There are lots of things we can learn and apply to improve our recorded and streaming (think Zoom here) video, and in particular audio.

Be the one in the meeting who people notice, who is audible and who manages to ‘pop’ off that screen.

Focus

Stacks Image 100
Often there’s a great deal riding on a presentation. The one thing we tend to avoid at all costs is practicing (rehearsing) a speech or presentation in real time, and yet it is the one thing that will guarantee a better and more effective performance.

Focus first on you - learn and rehearse in a safe space, find out what practical things can help you stay comfortably in the spotlight. Then bring your focus on your audience.

They will straight away be wanting more.

Outcomes

Stacks Image 334
There’s a series of myths about public speaking. What we need to do, to be happy and comfortable on our feet, is to find our own honest voice, enhance our own style, practice and then embrace every opportunity to be heard.

This is simpler than most people fear.

It is also, unquestionably, a skill that everyone can adopt, adapt and make their own.

A little help will get you a long way.
