• If using your phone or a tablet, be sure it is in the horizontal position.
• Natural lighting is best and, often, free. Record videos in front of a window in the morning and afternoon to avoid harsh light. If you dedicate a conference room as a recording studio, make sure it has soft lighting.
• Sound: Record in a relatively quiet space or use headphones with a microphone to dampen background noise.
• Location: Any backdrop will do. Part of the appeal of personalized one-way videos is that is not staged but looks authentic. Try to tailor the background to the situation, and always dress the part.
• Timing: the pros suggest 90 seconds or less, but feel free to expand to 3 minutes as your journey may require more time.
