Recording Set Up
- Ensure your default camera and default microphone are the correct devices. This can be found in your settings.
- Avoid using a Bluetooth headset as your default microphone.
- Record in a well-lit room where the light is shining on your face.
- Avoid recording with light behind you (ie. in front of a window).
- Do not wear a hat that creates a shadow over your face.
Recording Best Practices
- Ensure your entire face is located within the red oval that appears on your screen when you start recording.
- When recording, start your Dynamic Video with "Hey there" followed by a brief conversational pause, and then the rest of your message.
- When you finish "Hey there", close your mouth so that your lips touch before starting the rest of your message.
- When you get to step two, ensure that "Hey there" is properly identified by Potion. You'll know this worked because the words "Hey there" will have a purple highlight.
- If when you get to step two the words "Hey there" and only the words "Hey there" aren't highlighted, re-record.
Other Tips
- Do your best to record all of your video messaging in the same room/environment. The more consistent your environment, the more consistent your audio and video output will be across all of your videos.
- Write your script in bullet points rather than full sentences so that when you deliver your script, it doesn't feel scripted.
- Mistakes are okay, you're only human! Avoid re-recording until you have a "perfect" video.
By following these tips for recording setup, best practices, and general video creation, you can ensure your Dynamic Videos are consistently high-quality and engaging. Remember, a friendly and conversational tone goes a long way, so relax, be yourself, and focus on delivering your message in a clear and concise way. With a little practice, you'll be creating professional-looking Dynamic Videos in no time!
