If I had to pick, I think I would like to speak like Guy Martin.. That would be so cool.

Lol, sometimes I think I would only have to double the speed of my videos, and add some silence.

Hi all happy new year,

Just after some advice I did my first vlog on some fake leathers that I was conned with and for some reason I was really nervous and the video came out crap have a look on my channel to havea look if you would like and give me some pointers as I admit myself its not good only just got a mic for when out ridong but dont want to sound so nervous. Do you script your videos when not on the bike or just go with what comes out

thanks for any help

my youtube name is gixer lee - im not posting this so i get views or likes just after some advice if this isnt allowed please let me know or remove it thanks

Hey man, a little tip from many big youtubers I've been talking with over the past few months. Your first video (most commonly) is going to suck.

I, and they, aren't saying that to be mean or put anyone down or anything. Go and look at any top youtuber's first video, or hey, even your favorite youtuber's video. Now go back and compare the quality to what they just recently uploaded a few years later. Much different, right? Great videos come with experience, everyone creates some really bad videos from time to time, much more so when you're first starting out. Nobody, no matter what it is, is an instant success story. It takes hard work and many failures and setbacks to create a masterpiece.

Enjoy what you're doing and instead of looking at it like "Oh man, I really hope I didn't suck too much.", look at it like "Okay, that was a good run and I enjoyed making that video, now what can I do next time to improve it."

Your name rings a bell, I have seen you around YouTube

What helps me is talking as if I'm the only one listening. Bascially, just talk to yourself! Scripting doesn't work for me as I'm pretty good at improvising, so talking to myself works for me. But as others have said, see what works for you

This, so much this.

This is what I've heard so many vloggers say one of the best ways to get over being self conscious about talking into the camera. Treat it like a one-man conversation. You're the only audience for your voice so you feel more comfortable saying what you want to say.

I tend to make mental scripts by just having conversations in my head. Sometimes when I'm trying to sleep at night. Sometime it's enough when i'm motovlogging, and sometimes I just improvise or embellish on the topic I've chosen. 50-70% of what I want to say I say.

It doesn't mean anything if I don't have good footage, or even good b-roll, and sound/music to work with.

...or just don't say anything and let the pictures do the talking (some people are made to perform for audiences and some aren't I've been told ~).....

Second this. If you looked at a lot of motovloggers you will see a fair majority don't talk. If you can make your videos entertaining then you don't need voiceover. With that said, its very difficult though
