Media Training Los Angeles
Aligning your authentic YOU with your On-Camera Persona!
What is media training?
Shannon O’Down specializes in Media training in Los Angeles by helping individuals, such as the owners of the company or a representative to properly communicate with the media (for example, newspaper, podcasts, social media platforms, radio or any other forms of media communication).
What does the media training include?
Shannon’s training media has been improved over the years from personal and customer experience teaching both individuals and company’s master their social media message. Coming up with your talking point is the most important factor for a media interview. Understanding your objective will give clear topic ideas that are relevant to the target audience. Once the topic ideas is created, develop the core message by using storytelling and facts to add credibility to the message.
The key is to rehearse the talking points out loud, until you get comfortable with both the language and the flow. Shannon uses different formats (one-on-interviews, on camera, speeches etc) to refine and deliver the ideal media message.
Lastly, Shannon makes sure to work on the non-verbal communication skills. This factor is usually not worked on enough. Once you start practicing, make sure you maintain eye contact, use the right body language and control the tone of voice.
“Most people feel nervous or anxious about being on-camera or doing video content. I help educate and empower them through technique and coaching so they can feel confident and excited about those opportunities, and how they can actually elevate them to bigger and better possibilities.”
– Shannon O'Dowd, Media Trainer & Performance Coach
