Recording Tips:
-You can record directly to ThankView on your desktop or mobile device.
-Make sure to film horizontally so you fill the frame.
-When recording with a phone or tablet, use a tripod or prop it up with something like books for stability.
-Keep your device close for good sound quality but far enough away that you are the focus. Try 3-4 feet.
-Choose a location that provides balanced lighting. Try to find a room that has a lot of natural light and record with the window facing you so you benefit from the natural light. If the window is behind you, you will appear shadowed.
-Choose a flattering angle for your recording. Shooting from below is not usually a person’s best angle.
-Avoid echo chambers. Oftentimes sparse offices or conference rooms with glass walls can create a lot of echoes.
-Be yourself and have fun!
