Here's what we're looking for 

Speak Naturally & From the Heart

• Look at the camera (or just above it) as if you're talking to a friend.

• Don’t worry about being perfect — honest, warm, and real is what connects.

• A good testimonial includes:

  • What you were looking for or struggling with

  • Why you chose this product/service

  • How it helped or made you feel

  • A specific moment or result you noticed

  • Who you’d recommend it to

How to Record a High-Quality Video Testimonial

Whether you're filming on a phone or a camera, here’s how to make it look and sound polished, relaxed, and authentic.

---

1. Find Good Lighting

• Natural light is best — face a window for soft, flattering light.

• Avoid strong backlighting (like windows behind you).

• Use lamps or soft ring lights if filming indoors and natural light isn’t available.

---

2. Choose a Quiet Setting

• Record in a quiet room to avoid background noise (traffic, wind, pets, etc.).

• Turn off fans or anything humming in the background.

• If outside, find a sheltered area and speak up clearly.

---

3. Frame It Well

• Position the camera at eye level (avoid low or high angles).

• Keep your head and shoulders in the frame — a medium-close shot works best.

• Leave a little space above your head and centre yourself or use the rule of thirds for a natural look.

---

4. Use a Tripod or Stable Surface

• Keep the camera still — prop it up or use a tripod.

• Avoid holding the phone unless it’s perfectly still

---

5. Keep It Short & Sweet

• Aim for 30–90 seconds.

• It’s okay to do a few takes and pick the best one.

---

6. Sound Quality Matters

• If possible, use earphones with a mic or an external microphone.

• Speak clearly and at a steady pace.

---

7. Dress Simply

• Avoid busy patterns or logos — solid colours are best.

• Choose something that feels like you but also intentional.

---

Bonus Tips:

• Smile and pause briefly before and after speaking — it helps with editing.

• Relax — your experience matters, and your words can really help others.
