Recommendations include how to properly position oneself for a shot, how to improve articulation, how to deal with stress and how to best perform online. "Try-It-Out" exercises help readers put what they have learned into practice and prepare to be on camera. Key terms are bolded in the chapters and are collected in a book-end Glossary for easy reference.
