Why should I buy a teleprompter?
As someone who makes BTS videos on a weekly basis, I've found that having one of these nifty devices can really help me improve the quality of the videos that I can bring your way. I took a little bit of practice to get things right. Initially I had problems with my eyebrows and expression and looked a little bit forceful… but after a couple tweaks, focusing on getting the right body language and proper camera angle it does deliver some really solid results.
For some odd reason, we tend to get our reading faces on when… well, reading off of a teleprompter. This means that it gets rather stiff and unexpressive. Deep breaths, relax and imagine talking to a person. It helps!
Even with a teleprompter in front of me, I still make mistakes and stumble through words as I go through the presentation. Go through with it anyways instead of restarting from scratch and each run will become more and more fluid. As you go, note which parts you speak too fast/too slow and edit your prompting text until it goes at a natural speed.
