"I could divide my life in two parts: before turning pro and after. After is better" - Steven Pressfield (The War of Art)
During client calls, workshops and talks, one resounding visibility question I'm asked about consistently by you is video.
"OMG I could not do video, I look and sound awful" (which technically speaking isn't actually a question in my books) but that's what you say
OR
What basic equipment do I need Jenny, to get started?"
OR
How do I work out what to say?
I usually respond with a "Just start where you are" type of response, which I know sounds flippant, but I actually mean it.
Here's why, I remember a few years ago I made a video because I felt compelled to share some really useful techniques and to be honest, I got sick of waiting for 'my big break' before giving myself permission to just do it.
Someone I met had commented and said they had a TV production background and that a video produced in a studio would be far better.
But for who? I asked
Because, I quickly realised from all the other comments I received, that my videos were actually hitting a spot and empowering you to create your own professional videos, without a script, perfect lighting or even makeup (yes men too).
So watch this and tell me if you agree, and notice how I incorporate the sights and sounds too …
