Tips for recording:
- Make sure you are not backlit, or you’ll appear as a silhouette. All lighting should be in front of your face!
- If you’re filming on a phone, make sure you are in LANDSCAPE mode instead of portrait mode.
- If you can, avoid background noise – we want to hear you clearly.
- Keep your camera at eye level with your head/shoulders centered, and a bit of space above your head for any cropping we need to do.
- Remember to mute any notifications! Receiving a text or pop-up while recording will be heard on video – even if your phone is on vibrate.
- We remain sensitive to social distancing and masking. Therefore, videos filmed in large crowds with improper safety precautions cannot be considered at this time.
