When you need to create great talking head videos for your business you need to be at your best. People sense if you are feeling down, scattered or frustrated. It bleeds through into your video.
What do you do when you need to create talking head videos, but you can’t seem to zone in on doing it right? It can be very frustrating. Especially so if you’re all dressed up and your hair and make-up turned out just right, but you can’t seem to stop tripping over your words.
If you want to create great talking head videos, 99% of it is in your mind and in your attitude. If you can get your mind and energy right, everything else will fall into place.
Here are five simple steps to creating those great talking head videos.
1. Call Back your Energy for Talking Head Videos
Many times we’re unable to focus because we’re too concerned about other things. Maybe your child is having some issues. Or maybe your sister’s going through a divorce. Maybe you’re concerned about your own future. All that energy dispersal is leaving you little for the task at hand, so call it back. Here’s an exercise I use.
Outstretch your arms and make a gathering motion like you’re gathering arms-full of flowers. Make this gathering motion as you say each statement aloud. You will replace the words in brackets with whatever is relevant to you.
- I take back my energy from [my sister’s life].
- I take back my energy from [my children’s lives].
- I take back my energy from concerns and regrets of the past.
- I take back my energy from concerns about the future.
Add your own statements. Be thorough! Keep calling your energy back from wherever it may be dispersed. At the end, hug yourself for a few minutes. Take several deep breaths. As you do, think of releasing all the worry/concern and breathing in all the energy that is now yours to be focused.
2. Decide the Outcome You Want Your Viewer to Experience
- Do you want them to have more hope about their situation?
- Do you want them to come away knowing how to do something specific?
- Do you want them to feel compelled to work with you?
- Do you want them to sign up for what you’re giving away?
- Perhaps you want them to feel inspired, happy, motivated, understood?
3. Relax and Trust That You Can Do This
Now, here are a few more affirmations for you in preparation for filming.
- I am focused and clear about what I want to say.
- I easily create this video.
- The words are given to me in the moment that I need them.
- I relax and trust the process.
- I can easily create a compelling video quickly and smoothly.
- I trust that the people who watch my video will receive exactly what they need.
- When people watch this video, they will [feel/experience … insert your desired outcome here].
4. Say a Little Prayer
That’s what Mama always taught me to do before a quiz or test or whenever I needed a little extra help. I think it’s fantastic advice. Say a little prayer and ask that people will get what they need, that you’ll be given the right words and that it will flow easily from you.
