243: Teleprompter Training to Sound Natural
Teleprompters get blamed for making people sound stiff, robotic, or unnatural. But that is rarely the real problem.
In this episode, Chris breaks down what teleprompter training actually is, why most people struggle with teleprompters, and how poor setup and zero performance coaching are usually to blame. You will learn the difference between reading words and scanning ideas, how presenters should control pace instead of chasing auto-scroll speed, and why a teleprompter is best understood as a recording environment, not a tool.
If you want to use a teleprompter without losing energy, eye contact, or authenticity, this episode gives you a clear, practical framework that works in real-world recording setups.
This is essential listening for anyone using teleprompters for video who wants clarity without sounding scripted.
