How to embody an open, enthusiastic body language:
Firstly, smile and imagine you are speaking to your audience.
Secondly, use clear hand gestures illustrating your points. Tell your hands to follow what you say. Be aware this is a video, therefore keep them fairly close to you but feel free to move them. It is proven that when we move our hands, we think better. You will come across a lot more animated and present. DEMO
Finally, adopt an active posture. Do not slouch or rest too much on your chair. Keep your core engaged, and your energy will be sustained throughout the filming. DEMO
Take a deep breath before starting and remember to breathe throughout the video. Breathing also creates necessary pauses to help you and your audience, to stay focused.
To practice breathing, put your hands on your ribs and feel your diaphragm expanding. Doing five breaths using the diaphragm, activates the parasympathetic nervous system and calms us down.
