Short, practical articles on script delivery, teleprompter habits, eyeline, openings and rehearsal routines for people who record video or host live streams.
Each guide covers one skill you can try the same day, from pacing a script to preparing a first recorded presentation. A new article appears about once a day.
Rehearsal
A practical walk through a short warm-up and run-through you can repeat before each recording or broadcast, so you start calm and finish takes with less repeating.
Openings
Before you commit to a greeting and a first message, run through these questions about audience, wording, delivery and setting so your opening feels settled rather than rushed.
Teleprompter
Most teleprompter trouble comes from a few habits: a speed set too fast, a script written for the page, and eyes that drift. Here is how to spot each one and fix it.
Pricing
A plain look at what shapes the price of eyeline and camera presence coaching: session format, preparation, recorded review and follow-up practice materials, so you can plan your budget.
Team Workshops
A short story about Dana, who manages a small training team, and the half-day workshop that helped four colleagues record their webinar series in a consistent voice.
Script Delivery

A run-through is not a casual read of your script. Priya Nair explains the term in plain words and shows how it fits into a short routine you can repeat before every recording.

Rehearsal
Before you commit to a rehearsal routine, run through these questions about timing, space, voice, script and review so the habit you build fits your real recording days.
Openings
Most weak openings fail in the same few ways. Priya Nair walks through the common slips in greetings and first messages for videos and live streams, and how to fix each one.
Costs
A plain look at how teleprompter practice is priced for individuals and small teams, which choices raise or lower the total, and what to settle before you enquire.

Team Workshops
Practical advice on organising a half-day group workshop in these autumn weeks, so colleagues who record training videos or host webinars together start the new quarter prepared.
Script Delivery
A beat is a short, deliberate pause that gives a listener time to take in a point. Daniel Brooks explains the term in plain words and shows how to mark beats in your own script.
Rehearsal
Two ways to prepare before you record: a quick ten-minute warm-up or a full run-through of the script. Megan Holloway compares them and says which one to build your routine around.
Behind the Scenes
