I’m aware I look a little ridiculous… but there’s actually a reason for it. 😂
Before I film any talking-to-camera reel, I always do this.
I gently hold a pen between my teeth and speak for a minute or two before I hit record. It might look silly, but I find it helps me slow down, pronounce my words more clearly, and feel more articulate once the camera starts rolling.
I wish I could remember where I first learnt this trick because it’s become a non-negotiable part of my filming routine.
If you create content, give it a go before your next talking-to-camera video and let me know… did you notice a difference? I’d love to hear how you go! 👇
