Tips To Ensure A High Quality Video:
- Record in a distraction-free space with little to no ambient noise around you.
- Lighting should be behind the camera and/or coming at you from the front and sides equally.
- Avoid shooting in front of a busy background.
- Wear a solid-colored top (avoid patterns or white).
- Frame the video to focus on your face and shoulders.
- Talk to the camera lens as if you are speaking to another person.
- Very Important: Once you begin to record…
- Count to three before you begin to speak.
- Start with your name and number of years of board Service or if you are also pursuing your first board seat.
- After you are done speaking, count to three before stopping the recording.
- Be sure to check your videos for audio and video quality before submitting.
