Lighting makes all the difference when recording a video. High-light, low-light and special effect lighting set the mood and tone of your message. Abundant natural light creates a warm and comfortable feeling while artificial light, fluorescent lights in particular, have more blue tones and may alter skin coloring. In the CoVideo offices we supplement our overhead fluorescent lights with incandescent spot and table lighting.

Preview your videos to make sure there is sufficient light and make any necessary adjustments to your camera settings if room lighting is adequate. Cameras have varying capabilities of capturing light sources so the same room setting may appear lighter with one camera than another.

Spending a few minutes on lighting will put you at ease and help you deliver your message with confidence!

Hi, this is Sheila with CoVideo.  And this is your 60-second tip of the week.  News flash.  “Go Green!”  Everybody’s “going green”, and you can “go green” too.  With your CoVideo system, sending out a video instead of maybe a … paper thank you … is a great way to “go green”.  On top of … instead of traveling across the state to meet with that client face to face … one on one, “go green” and send a video email.  I want you to know that CoVideo is a world-class presentation and conferencing system.  We are not just your regular video email company.  So, as you think about “going green”, you need to also know that our goal is to “Connect Your World Daily”.  This is Sheila with CoVideo, and I hope you have a fabulous week focusing on “going green”.

“Hi, It’s Sheila with CoVideo.  And this is your 60-second Tip of the Week. Just wanting you to know that entrepreneurs know the importance of sending out a thank you card immediately after having a business encounter with them.  I want you to know the importance of sending out a CoVideo instead.  Why?  Because it’s that personal touch.  They can see the expression on your face, the excitement in your voice, and the aspect of the fact that you’ve met with them and you’re excited to business with them again.  So, let me encourage you.  Send out a video everyday.  Touch base with those you’ve already seen today.  You can even go back as far as yesterday.  Don’t stress about or think about going back any further.  But right now, start today touching base with people you’ve met … just today.  This is Sheila with CoVideo, and I hope you have a fabulous week.”

Hi, it’s Sheila with CoVideo.  And this is your 60-second tip of the week.  Well, the dogs are barking, the kids are running in the front door, and I have to be somewhere in ten minutes.  But I could not leave without telling you about the experience I had with using this CoVideo system this week.  It’s a marketing experience where I demonstrated four products on my face … and then I sent it to all my prospects … and all my past and present clients.  Well, guess what?  Before I pressed “send”, I clicked that little button at the bottom that says “Let me know when they view the video”.  My email has been torn up with all kinds of replies.  Well, the great thing is all I need to do now is call them and ask them what they think and take the order.  But the greatest, craziest thing is they’re already emailing me saying “send me the stuff”.  So, I want to encourage you to get creative with using your CoVideo system.  Get creative with marketing … and daily promote your product by using this system.  Encouraging you the system everyday, this is Sheila with CoVideo, and I hope you have a fabulous week.

Hi, this is Sheila with CoVideo.  And this is your 60-second tip of the week.  We’re going to talk about technology.  Okay … technology is not one of my favorite things to talk about.   I mean … seriously, look at all these buttons that I have to choose from.  I am so worried I am going click on something and I am going to mess it up.  Then I’m going to have to have someone come in and fix it.  Well, I’m going to share with you what they keep telling me … you’re not going to mess it up.  Get in there and learn your system … and use it.  And that is the really great thing about starting with contacts.  That’s where I started.  Put in five new contacts a day … and then of course, send out five new CoVideos a day.  So let me encourage you to learn the technology behind the buttons.  Enjoy the system.  Get comfortable with it.  Get familiar with it.  This is Sheila with CoVideo, and I hope you have a fabulous week.
