How do u look 'Natural' during a camera test?
I have a camera test tomorrow and my face always looks so stiff when I see the red light.
My teacher told me to practice the "3 Stages":
- The 'Cool/Chic' face (Eyes focused, no smile) 🕶️
- The 'Half-smile' (Just the eyes smiling) 😊
- The 'Big Bright Smile' (Show your teeth and energy!) 😁 Does anyone have a trick to relax your facial muscles before the recording starts? I don't want to look like a statue!
Make weird faces for 1 minute before u start. 'A-E-I-O-U'!
My secret is to flutter my lips (like a horse breath 🐴) right before the red light goes on. It relaxes all the tiny muscles around your mouth.
My secret hack: Before the camera turns on, do the 'Lion-Mouse' stretch. Open your mouth and eyes as wide as possible (Lion), then scrunch your whole face into a tiny ball (Mouse). Repeat it 5 times! It sounds ridiculous, but it literally 'wakes up' your facial muscles so you don't look like a statue. Good luck tomorrow!
o literally why is the red light so intimidating?? it's giving horror movie 😭 i usually massage my jaw like a crazy person for 5 mins straight lol.
