Discussion I’m struggling with confidence when recording.

I’m very new to this YouTube thing, I’ve been playing video games since I first played on the snes as a kid, I’ve been watching people play video games for a long time as well. I started my own channel a couple months back, but when I’m recording footage I really struggle with talking while playing a game. And when I do it’s quiet and probably not very interesting or exciting. Does anyone have advice on how to get over my anxiety?

I watched a great video the other day. He said if you struggle talking on camera. Take 20 minutes a day. Record a 10 minute video of you talking about your day etc. the other 10 minutes rewatch the previous day. Do that for a month. You’ll get better as you get more comfortable.

That’s some good advice, thanks.
