Record & Upload Videos

WHAT YOU NEED:

1.    Camera device (phone, tablet, camera, webcam)

2.    Music playback device (phone, tablet, computer)

3.    Headphones

 

WHAT TO DO:

1.    Set up your camera so you can be seen clearly in the video. We prefer to have head and shoulders in frame of camera, if possible

  • Lights and windows should be in front of you, not behind you

 

2.    Open the song’s track on a music playback device connected to your headphones

  • Wear headphones to sing-a-long. Or, if you would prefer wear one headphone only

 

3.    Press record on your camera and press play on the music. Sing your heart out!  And “play into” your character if you wish.  Be sure to smile; unless your Miss Hannigan (she’s cranky!)

 

4.    Review your video after you have finished recording to make sure you can be heard clearly

 

5.    Continue with next song. Not sure what songs to record? Check list Backstage
