Helpful Recording Tips:
- Film horizontally, “landscape” style (rather than vertical/portrait)
- Place your phone (or have someone hold it for you) at least 3 feet away from your face and wait 5 seconds after hitting record to begin speaking. Answer the question “Why Do You 5K?” Your answer should be :30 seconds maximum. Once you have completed your comments, again, wait another 5 seconds, looking into the camera. Then stop recording.
- Feel free to film outside on a training walk or run. Showing yourself doing something active will replicate a sense of what you will be doing on the day of the 5K! If you are outside, be mindful of the noises. If you want to film inside, it is best to film facing a window that gets natural daylight. You don’t want to have the window in the background or other backlighting.
- After you’ve finished your recording, please save your file as your name and the month-day-year that filming took place. For example, “Amy Ludwig 10-04-2018”
- Please upload your finished file to the Google link above. Please do not email us your file.
