can make really valuable videos with just your phone and i want to show you how to do it super efficiently and quickly using my favorite teleprompter app it looks like this it's literally called teleprompter look for it in your app store i am not an affiliate of this app i literally just love it and it has helped me record professional looking videos much faster on my phone so i recommend it to all of my friends to all of my clients now if you don't have an iphone and you are living that android life check out one of these prompter apps here and you can apply the same tips that i'm sharing here in this video to make better videos with a prompter app all of the apps work pretty similarly just use the information in this video and apply it to the app of your choice now real quick disclaimer here because a lot of people are like oh i don't want to use a prompter recording with a prompter isn't something that you have to do when you're recording your videos but it can really save you time if you have very specific information that you need to cover in a video or if you're a beginner at making videos or if you tend to ramble or if you want your editing to go faster those are all really good reasons to use a prompter and you may find that you don't need to use a prompter forever and that's awesome i personally like using them because literally my friend it cuts my editing time in more than half and it also makes it so that i don't have to memorize the script before i get on camera super efficient okay let's take this step by step how to use a teleprompter app to record videos fast step one you need to write your script now when you're writing a script for a teleprompter you need to skip a line between each sentence this helps you to have a script that's easily readable and that doesn't get all jumbled up so write your script and skip a line between each sentence i'll sometimes even break up long sentences at the commas or at the pauses so that i can like take a breath when i'm reading next import the script into the app i always save my scripts to my computer and then copy and paste the text into the app because i use my scripts to repurpose for a lot of other different things you can use them for like captions and emails so save your script somewhere and copy and paste the text into the app with this teleprompter app at least a lot of the times the formatting might not transfer if i copy and paste directly to my phone so i will go in there and make sure the lines are all skipped properly you can also use the app on your computer at least on a mac and you can adjust your script there then you need to adjust your settings once you open up the individual script that you're going to be recording there are different settings meant for different situations in this app that i use and literally the whole reason i use it and why i pay for the pro plan you can reverse your text so that you can see the app with prompter glass that goes over the top of a pro camera lens we are not going to go into detail about that today in this video but leave a comment if you want to see how i do this for my youtube videos literally doing it right now in this video we're just focusing on how to use your prompter to record on your phone so the settings for your phone you need to keep the letters the proper way that you would read them on a page left to right not mirrored because you're going to be reading them as they scroll up and you want to make sure that the words are scrolling up not down next thing to keep in mind when you are reading the words on your screen try to pick a speed that allows you to read the words at the top of the screen and to keep pace with those words at the top of the screen the more that you can keep your eyes near the top of your phone the closer it will look like you are looking at the actual camera lens if you are reading words that are at the bottom of the screen it will be a lot more obvious that you are reading a script you can read either horizontally or vertically you would want to record vertically for igtv or reels or stories and you would want to record horizontal videos for youtube or facebook or linkedin and they can also be posted to igtv as well make sure your camera is set up somewhere stable either on a tripod or even propped against something or with one of the million phone mounts that are out there lots of times i'll use this ipad stand with a rubber band around the phone and that lets me tilt the phone if i need without it falling off so at this point you're all set up you're ready to go the last thing you need to do is push record and this will start your camera and then you push the start button and that will start your prompter moving and you can read your script make sure when you're recording you smile and you use your hands to express yourself and you will be good to go if you want more tips on how to appear more natural on camera check out my
