    Today we are discussing how to communicate effectively on video, and my guest is a lady that I personally use to help me with just that.

    Not so long ago I was searching YouTube for help on how to use my new Canon M50 camera. There are lots of experts on it, and many have much bigger channels than Diana's. But her videos stood out to me for their clarity, simplicity, and how accurately they spoke to the precise problems I was facing.

    She is a truly impressive young lady and in this episode we discuss all things about communicating on camera, including:
    the most important thing to work out before you do anything on videolighting and equipmenthow to create compelling titles for your videosdealing with being an introverthow long your video needs to bewhat's so good about Popeyes Chicken!Diana Gladney helps busy entrepreneurs simplify video creation so they can amplify their business and their brand using video. She takes the seemingly complicated topic of video marketing and tech tutorials and makes it so simple and easy that anybody can share their purpose, their message, and their business with those who need it the most. 

    It's a great interview so sit back, listen and learn from Diana.
