1. Build up your confidence

Believing in yourself is the best way to seem natural in front of the camera and large studio teleprompter device if you're the presenter. If you mess up with the scroller, deviate from the plan. Since you are familiar with the speech's context, it shouldn't be difficult to rephrase what you previously stated as you attempt to get back on course.

2. Use some casual body language

If you are stiff and deliver a repetitive monologue, it will be obvious that you are using a studio camera teleprompter. Use your hands and smile to break up the monotony and to put your audience at ease. However, this should not come across as a conscious effort.

3. Adapt the studio teleprompter kit to your habits
