Video marketing can do wonders for your business—if you're comfortable getting on camera. For many, though, creating videos feels awkward and overwhelming. We freeze up, obsess over tiny details, or just have no idea where to start, leaving us feeling defeated before we even hit record. If you’re tired of watching hours of footage, only to realize you didn’t get what you needed, or you just hate how you sound and look on camera, you’re not alone. But there’s a better way to approach it that will make your video creation smoother and your personality shine through.

In today’s episode, hosts Bobby Richards and James Sweeting sit down with Abby Walla and David Storch, Hollywood film professionals and co-founders of Crushing It On Camera. They introduce their proven “Hollywood Method” to help you get comfortable on camera, using simple techniques to deliver content authentically. Whether you’re shooting a short reel or a 30-minute webinar, you’ll learn how to leave behind the stress of scripts or endless retakes. Abby and David teach you how to get prepared, bullet-point ideas, and stay natural. Listen in and learn how to feel confident, authentic, and genuinely excited to create video content.
