Yeah in the beginning it definitely felt extremely weird talking to a camera, with no other person in the room. I had trouble talking as naturally as I do to a live audience or even to a friend. This was actually so hard for me in the beginning, that I avoided talking directly to the camera for a long time. Instead I recorded footage of me doing things and then did a voiceover track to put over that. But it is mostly a matter of practice and becoming used to, and comfortable with, that situation. After 1-2 years of weekly videos it didn’t feel weird anymore for me. And nowadays I can talk just as naturally to the camera as to a friend. But yeah definitely a big hurdle for many people I have talked to as well. I think what I nowadays do, without thinking about it, is I imagine the camera is a person in my core audience.
