You've seen the cringe-worthy videos that people post on their websites and YouTube. You don't want to be one of those people. You want your videos to connect and captivate your viewers and build trusting relationships. To do that, you need your video subjects to be themselves. Yet the moment many people get in front of a camera, they get self-conscious, freeze like a deer in headlights, or become some over-the-top version of themselves. Stop sending mixed messages where what your subject says and how the video looks are incongruent. Control your visuals so your message is louder than your distracting video mistakes.
