I'm Not Great on Camera...

Justin Vajko • April 14, 2025

But this makes it super easy

“I'm not great on camera. I always have the idea in my head to talk to the camera and I just can't do it by myself. I feel silly. So this was super easy to have somebody to talk to and have the questions to be able to give a good quick-fire answer instead of fumbling with my words and figuring out what to say.”


The reason our system works so well is that most people aren’t hardwired to be good on camera. 


(i definitely had to learn to get comfortable…and I've been doing these interviews for over 2 years)


There’s probably only 1% of the population that pops into the world ready to star on late-night shows. 


But that’s okay because we make content from conversations. 


Not everyone can be Jimmy Kimmel…but everyone can have a talk with a friend. 


You’ll instantly have videos that are: 

→ More authentic for the audience

→ More comfortable for you 

→ More guided and impactful


And best of all, they won’t feel like a hassle to make. 


Just sit down and have a short conversation. You’ll get instant value.
