When to Sit vs. When to Stand in Your Videos

- In video we have to make a lot of decisions. The success of each video depends on our choices. So naturally we skip stuff like what shade of lipstick to wear, how we’ll start the video, whether we’ll sit or stand, and all kinds of other things that don’t make any difference in how the video will be received.
Except for one thing.
Your shade of lipstick does matter, how you start the video matters, and believe it or not, whether you’ll be sitting or standing matters, too.
But again, a tiny decision.
Speaking of which…
I’ve decided to create a little oasis of calm and simplicity with something I’m calling “The tinyTutorial™“. (The “™” is a bit corporate, isn’t it? I may have to rethink that.)
The first tinyTutorial (yep, that’s better) is about a shooting decision many people skip, and so it’s often one of the things we talk about before a new client steps into their studio for the first time. - Jak na to + styl
great food for thought. thank you
This tinyTutorial is timely for me. I’m working on a series of videos for my podcasting group that I’m naming Podcast Subject Matters. Many of these will be screen capture videos where I show resources and demonstrate techniques online that can help my fellow podcasters up their game. I will be sitting for these videos, and I was feeling like I wanted your “permission” to do that, since all of my videos in the course that I’ve posted in the Green Room have been standing for my Your Story in Your Voice project. I now see a large bright green light! I will post my Trailer in the Green Room in December and maybe we can discuss it a little in the monthly webinar for the course. Thank you, Steve!
de nada!
Interesting topic and practically informative. Thanks Steve!
Happy it was helpful!
Good stuff. Thank you for creating and sharing.
Really encouraging to know you found it helpful. Thanks!
I've been asking myself this question recently and it's good to hear your perspective. I also followed your guide on setting up a green screen in a small space and have been shooting my latest videos this way. It's worked out very well so far. Thank you Steve, and nice video!
Awesome to hear. Thank you!
Another masterfully done video! Love your style and delivery.
Thank you! That means a lot to me. If there's anything else you'd be interested in seeing a video about, let me know!
I enjoyed the practical examples of topic or tone for sitting. Thank you.
My pleasure. And thank you for the kind words!
I sing and was trained to breathe into the diaphragm. Makes it easier to keep full breath
Yes. Excellent point, sir!
