Video making training

If you are going to make your own videos, you are going to need to learn how
to loosen up behind the microphone. 

Being relaxed is more important than, having an "announcer's voice", a cool accent,
impeccable grammar or the ability to pronounce all your words correctly! 

It's more important than any of the things you believe are keeping you from creating
a high converting sales video. 

Shut off the TiVo tonight, close your eyes, and listen to the voices in the TV commercials 
or on the radio. 

I guarantee that you'll hear all kinds of voices, (probably one just like your own), and I wouldn't 
be surprised if you heard some of them saying words that they seem to have just invented!

If listening to commercials doesn't ease your  the mind behind the microphone, try to imagine
the last time good grammar stopped someone from becoming the President of the United 
States! 

So relax and loosen up behind the microphone.


If you don't, you'll waste hours trying to edit your recordings and you'll run the risk of not sounding believable. 

Before, you press record, knowing what you are going to talk about is important but then while you are recording you need to just relax and tell it like it is. 

Don't worry, people will be drawn to your story even if you slip in an "um" or mispronounce a word as long as you sound relaxed and sound like you believe what you are saying! 

A little mistake here and there just makes you sound human and people tend to find it easier to believe someone they can relate to. 

If you'd like to learn more about how to "be natural" behind a microphone, as well as down-home advice about how to make professional grade audio on a shoe-string budget, you can find lots of info on the internet nowadays.

There are many courses you can buy as well

There are so many online courses, you'll discover even more techniques for relaxing behind the microphone, as well as penny-pinching advice about exactly which budget equipment you can use to sound like a pro. 

You'll even learn how to temporarily turn any room in your house into a professional grade temporary recording studio, and much more!
