Recording tips

1. Setup in a well lit room.
2. Try to avoid wearing bright colored clothes or busy patterns.
3. Put the camera at eye level and position yourself so that your face fills most of the screen.
4. Start the recording by staring at the camera for about 10 seconds with a fairly "neutral" expression-neither happy nor sad or angry- on your face. You can move your eyes or head a little bit.
5. Feel free to speak with passion-but speak clearly and distinctly and at a moderate speed.
6. Leave an extra 5 seconds after you finish the last line.
