🎥 Confidence is Key: Stand tall, speak with assurance, and maintain eye contact. Confidence translates well on screen and helps you connect with the audience.

🎥 Craft Your Message: Prepare key points and messages in advance. Be concise and articulate, ensuring your audience remembers the core of your message. Avoid jargon and make your content relatable. Listen to your PR pros and articulate your points in an effective manner in the right tone.

🎥 Body Language: Pay attention to your body language and facial expressions. A genuine smile and open posture convey approachability.

🎥 Visual Impact: Dress appropriately for the occasion, considering the tone of the interview and the audience you’re addressing. Don’t overdo your brand colors or company branding. Your name and designation will be flashed when you are on screen giving your company visibility.

🎥 Etiquette: Mind your manners on and off the camera. Take time to learn the names of the journalists and others on screen with you. Be respectful on how you address each one of them even in the heat of a discussion.

🎥 On Air Conversation: Look at the reporter, not the camera. During the interview, maintain good eye contact with the reporter. View the interview as a conversation with the reporter. Let them direct the angle and lighting.

🎥  It’s always on: Assume the camera is rolling. Take care at all times when talking with the reporter, because the camera could be live. The same goes for the microphone – always assume it’s hot… especially if it’s on your lapel. And once those words are out of your mouth and recorded. Everything is fair game!
