I got some face time on a video report!

Most of the videos I shoot here at the Springfield News-Leader are videos that feature my various interview subjects narrating the story while I overlay B-roll of what is being talked about.

On Friday we shot a fun little story about Google Street View finally coming here to Springfield, and I was called upon to demonstrate it in a video. Thought you guys might like to see it, so I'll linky loo below:

Enjoy, and feel free to critique my camera presence as I'm looking for ways to do better stand ups (or in this case, sit downs).

That's cool!

My critique:
Always keep your eyes on the camera. Don't look around. And you should zoom in so we don't see the back of your head.

Other than that.. you have the perfect voice for it and you ain't too bad lookin'.

Good job!

I did notice my eyes darted here and there. That's something I gotta work to overcome...concentrating on the camera.

I can't do it! LOL! I do video blogs occasionally and I rarely look at the camera that I am holding! :lol:

It is really hard.

I am the same with talking to people.
