Real Mum Video Competition Tips

Each week we will be running a competition in the Private Facebook Group for mums to send in their Real Mum videos. Some of the videos will be published on the main Facebook page as well as within the private group.
Here are some tips to follow to make sure your entry gets included into the competition:

• Film your video horizontally. If using a smart phone to film, turn it on it’s side.
• Ensure you film in a well lit room with lights above you or in front of you behind the camera. If you have a window behind you close the curtains so the light behind you is not making you look darker and shadowy.
• Try to keep videos under 2.5 minutes duration
• State your name and how much weight you have lost with Lose Baby Weight so far at the beginning of the video. So something along the lines of “Hi my name is X and I have lost Xkgs with Lose Baby Weight 28 Day Challenges and today I’m going to show you how simple it is to (insert your demonstration)”. See example videos below.
• Remember to BE CONFIDENT and speak clearly
• Also please don’t have any commercial songs playing as background music for workouts etc as we will be unable to publish your video due to copyright.

• Show 3 x 28 Day Challenge exercises and explain each exercise and do a demonstration of each exercise ensuring technique is correct. Click the links below to watch the example videos:
