  4. Use Shortcut Keys (Optional)

    • On Mac: Press Option + T

    • On Windows: Press Alt + T

    • Why?: These shortcuts provide quick access to the teleprompter without navigating the control bar.

  5. Select or Create a Script

    • Choose an existing script or create a new one using AI, voice-to-text, or by typing/pasting your script.

    • Scrolling Speed: Use the slider to set the teleprompter’s scrolling pace in words per minute.

    • Why?: Adjusting these settings ensures the script is easy to read and flows at a comfortable pace.


  7. Optimize Teleprompter Position

    • Adjust the teleprompter's height and width to keep it close to your camera, but avoid making it too large to maintain natural eye contact.

    • Why?: This helps maintain a professional appearance and prevents obvious reading on camera.

Additional Tips:

  • Sticky Settings: The teleprompter will remember your preferred size, speed, and position for future recordings.

    • Why?: This saves time by preparing your customized setup for your next video.

Following these steps, you can seamlessly integrate the teleprompter into your video recordings, making it easier to stay on script and deliver polished content.
