    There’s a time and place for using a Teleprompter and I will go into even more discussion about this later, but in the meantime, here’s some great tips on using a Teleprompter for your eyeline when you have a lot of dialogue and not enough time to get it completely memorized like you should. We will discuss during our Zoom today.
    Let me know if you have any questions about this.

    Great idea! I like the idea of a teleprompter and have set it up for a self tape I’m working on. I’ll often have my printed sides in my eyeline but when reading a page, my eyeline starts at the top and gradually gets lower. A teleprompter is a great remedy for that. I found an app called PromptSmart which uses your voice to advance the words on the screen. Thanks for the tip!

      That’s great! I’ll have to check it out. I also use an app called “Cold Read” It works pretty good and uses voice prompts or last word prompt and has a teleprompter feature that’s pretty great. Also, I have a subscription to Artlist which has a voice over feature where you can type in dialogue and it will repeat it in another voice of your choosing. I simply play it back and record it on the Cold Read app and it’s pretty damn impressive. It’s a bit of work to put it all together, but if you have the time and no reader and your stuck, it’s a great option.
