Using A Teleprompter Doesn’t Have To Be An Expensive Investment

Professional teleprompters in use at big events such as presidential speeches cost a lot of money and requires a quite complicated setup and configuration to work correctly during the speech.

For “domestic” use and giving a professional impression, it’s enough with a Screen like the one of an iPad.

Place your iPad as close as possible to the lens of the camera shooting the video. With a certain distance to the camera and with some training, it’s close to impossible for your audience to notice that your eyes read the text on the screen instead of focus on the camera lens.

Once you have your teleprompter hardware, you need a software that can roll out the scripted text on your screen. There are many different software you can get for free on the Internet.

The free basic version will in most cases be sufficient, but by upgrading to a paid version, you will get access to a lot of different features.

There are three necessary things you need to get your script to work when using a teleprompter:

1. You need to have a suitable text size. After all, you need to be able to read the text from your screen
2. You need to be able to save your script on your iPad
3. You need to be able to moderate the speed the text is rolling on your screen
