Well, this is about times of today where technology and virtual events have become an essence or I would even say a compulsive choice. I'm talking about webinars and individual recorded talks, lectures and discourses, post COVID or lockdown times, let's say. For a webinar or video talk, you need to follow the following guidelines. I will be talking in a very concise manner in this final lecture, more like bullet points because this is more about technical specifications. First, sit straight with body, not curving, tilting, bending or turning. In video, it looks very clumsy and distracts the viewer if the talker or speaker is constantly shaking his body or moving his body, let's say. But you can certainly move your arms and hands in sync with your script as this is part of body language. Second, there should be no background noise. Not even fan or aircon noise should be there when you are speaking. Microphones are tuned to catch background noise more prominently, I have noticed. This is why there are noise cancellation features in most recording devices. The background noise suppresses the primary voice of the speaker. So be mindful of that. Point three, room where you are seated should have no echo. So therefore look to record your talk in a room which is properly stuffed with wooden furniture or books etc. as they are natural sound balances and absorbers. It gives a good supporting acoustic atmosphere. Find a lot of wood, wooden furniture in a room where you are intending to speak from. Fourth point, use a background behind you which is contrast to your attire and costume. Use a library background, some art oriented background or absolutely plain white wall that can also do. Point five, video should cover just upper part of your body meaning starting from little below the chest. You do not have to be visible from waist and up. You have to be visible from somewhere from here as I am visible. Point six, if possible use a collar mic like I am using or otherwise use a camera, laptop or a mobile phone inbuilt mic that will also do provided you are speaking a little louder. You have to speak louder than in case of inbuilt mics. I will prefer you to use mobile phone as a recording device using the inside screen face camera. Keep it closer so that audio visual is of good quality. Point seven, the video settings should be horizontal, not vertical as is in Instagram TV. You have to have use horizontal settings. Point eight, do not take long pauses while you are talking because there is paucity of duration available for video. Point nine, video talk of yours should be less than three minutes, preferably I would say two minutes, 20 seconds or 30 seconds at the most. Two minutes, 20 seconds or two minutes, 30 seconds, definitely less than three minutes. Point 10, your talking script should be in the range of 200 to 220 words then you will be able to timeline your duration well. So your script should be 200 to 220 words. Point 11, you may see the sample videos on the mentor talk YouTube channel. Point 12, mentor talk is a YouTube channel. It is an initiative of the law and public policy think tank Goman bind HTO, in short GBHTO. Next point, I think it's point 13, mentor talk videos focus on topics related to law, public policy and any social or social economic issues. So you can choose to speak on any of these issues and subjects. Point 14, the content of videos should not be political and should should only contain objective views of yours opinions and analysis. Point 15, the videos are widely shared at all social media platforms, you know, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, blogger, Tumblr, Mix, LinkedIn and many more mediums. I don't remember all of these. So thank you and hope you found the series of four lectures on successful public speaking useful. Look forward to having your video contributions as well. Stay safe and thank you.
