    Default Recording-shy - help needed!

    Hello ladies! I've been trying to make some exclusive videos so I can start my Modelcentro site already, but turns out I can't film myself. I have no problems performing live on cam or recording live shows but every time I try filming a custom video I get super nervous and antsy (especially if it involves talking). I can spend a whole day filming one 10-minute clip and another one editing it just to end up shame-quitting and deleting everything. I remember myself having the same troubles making voice records (I have little problem speaking unless I know I'm being recorded). Has anyone else had the problem and how did you deal with it?

    I used to be the same way. it gets much better the more often you make them. Seriously, start making 3 or 4 a week and you'll change your tune soon after.
    all I can say is


    And don't overthink it! write a script, follow the script, edit it all together, and BAM you have a killer clip.

    Are you editing them? If so, do the scene, then do it again, and again, and again without stopping the cam. Switch up positions, talking speed, phrases, anything. Get comfortable with the scene and don't be afraid to laugh, stumble, or screw up your lines, you can cut that out later. Repeat the scene over and over. That takes away the huge pressure of needing to GET IT RIGHT in one take. You'll sound/look a lot more authentic when you're relaxed and thinking "now let's try it this way" instead of "OMG OK CAMERA'S ROLLING, DO IT PERFECTLY NOW".

    You don't have to talk all the way through it. Try filming some ignore videos first. Don't be so hard on yourself.

    Record your privates. When you are focused on your customer you tend to forget you are recording. Once you get comfortable with that, step up to more clips specifically done for fetishes, niches etc.

    YES! Sam's idea of doing ignore clips is genius, or you could start by doing voyeur "spy" videos.. just set it up to record and pretend like you don't know it's there.

    What caramel said.
    Have you watched masturbation or other camgirl roleplay etc videos on tube sites? I've purchased videos from other camgirls before and seeing how not everyone else is perfect all the time either is a good way to be less critical of yourself. Seriously, what some people upload and call a good video is not so great in my eyes.. I became a lot less "judgey" of myself when I saw shit videos bringing in more WAY more $ than mine. Is it how you're acting that makes you delete the video ? Or is it other things? Because you can change both easily, but knowing what bothers you about the recordings to the point of deleting them is helpful for you. If it's only your voice that irks you just listen to it manymany times and realize its probably sexy AF and all the guys love it even if you don't... I hate my voice tbh but everyone else loves it and it helps make me money. JUST DO IT and make that money, we've all gone through it
