RealTalk allows you to easily browse pre-written scripts, edit your scripts, or create your own! Once you have your script ready to go, you can easily record and share directly from your Member Area.
If you’d like to record your videos on a mobile device, you can do so in the KCM Mobile app! To learn more about using RealTalk in your Mobile App, click here!
If you're wondering whether to record on Desktop or Mobile, we've got you covered! Take a look at this helpful video from the Learning Center to help you decide!
Creating a Script from Scratch
Using a Pre-Written Script:
You can choose the script you would like to record by starting in your Desktop KCM Member Area.
Creating a Script from Scratch:
From the Member Area, select “My Scripts” and then “Create a New Script.” This will give you 2 options:
Start From Scratch: Add text within the text block to get started! Then use the Plus icon to add additional elements to your script. Choose from Image, Text, or AI Wizard to continue creating your script, and save when it is complete. Note: Always review AI-generated copy for accuracy and bias before recording.
Use a KCM Template: Select a Template that pulls in your Local data and visuals and creates a written summary of the visual using the AI Wizard (beta). Note: Always review AI-generated copy for accuracy and bias before recording.
Recording Your Video:
- Once your script is ready to record, select the “Record” button.
- You'll see your teleprompter over your video preview. You can move this anywhere you'd like and you'll also be able to adjust the speed and size of your text. You'll then be able to click "Preview" to practice your Script before recording!
- The "Format" button below your preview will allow you to select how you would like to record your video; 9:16 for Portrait and 16:9 for Landscape.
- The "Settings" button will allow you to adjust your teleprompter text size and speed, make the font bold, turn on Auto-Stop (which will automatically stop your video recording when your Script gets to the end), add a countdown timer, and Mirror Camera. Under "Script Image Backdrop," you'll have the option to choose a color as the background should your uploaded image not cover the entire video.
- When you're done recording you can click the "Stop" button to the right. If you need to record again you can select "Start Over" and start another take.
- If you're ready to watch and share your video you'll select "Review Video" and you'll have the options to Share, Record Another Take, and Save to Recordings. Please note: Make sure you save your video before sharing or starting another take!
- All of your Saved Videos will appear in "My Recordings."
Any Scripts that have recordings will have a film strip icon 
on the bottom right corner of the script tile in your library.
Share Your Video
- You can share your videos immediately after recording by using the "Share" button
- You can also go to "My Recordings" to see your saved videos and share from there!
Accessing Your Recordings
- All of your recordings can be viewed by selecting "My Recordings" at the top of the RealTalk landing page.
- Tip: Record a few at a time, then access your recordings when you’re ready to share!
