Lights, Camera, Action
Shoot the video in a room with abundant light and make sure the light is behind the camera focusing on you, not behind you or on either side. Keep the device on which you are shooting the video steady or else the video will be a blur and won’t appear professionally appealing at all.

Prepare in advance
Write whatever you have to say during the video and learn it like a story. Rehearse before shooting. Do not just read out your resume.

Look into the camera
Look into the camera while speaking, not on the ground. It makes you look more confident. Read your resume like a story, with pauses and different tones.

Background noises
Make sure you shoot a video with a silent background or the least noise. Noises add to the disturbance and wouldn’t let. your voice be audible.

Posture
Posture is very important while making a video resume. Make sure that both your shoulders are visible and your face is also visible properly. Keep your spine straight if you are making the video while. If you are standing, make sure your head and body are straight. Body language has a remarkable impact on the way people will look at you.
