Today is the day of the Deutscher Werbefilmpreis (German Advertising Film Awards), where I've been serving on the grand jury. After hours of intense deliberation over the winners, I now have a short window to finalize and memorize my one-minute speech for the "Editing" category. Even in my home city, staying in a hotel was a necessary move to stay in the zone and avoid the distractions of a long commute. The nerves are real. While I’ve preached the power of repetition on this channel for weeks, there is a massive difference between speaking into a DJI Pocket and standing on a stage in front of 600 industry professionals. In this video, I talk about my mental preparation strategy: treating the live audience exactly like my YouTube community. I’m giving myself permission to be authentic, to stumble, and to prioritize communication over perfection—tools I’ve developed through the consistency of this daily vlog. Will the "YouTube habit" actually translate to a flawless live presentation? I’m about to find out. I’m leaning on the fact that making mistakes makes you more approachable, a philosophy that has guided my growth as a creator. If my wife manages to capture any footage from the audience, I’ll be sure to share the result. Stay tuned to see if the "stress-testing" we've done here on the second channel pays off when the lights are the brightest. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - Live from the Hamburg Hotel 00:32 - The 1-Minute Award Speech 01:18 - Respecting the Adrenaline 01:47 - Testing the Power of Repetition 02:13 - Visualizing the Stage as a Camera 02:36 - The Goal: Communication Over Perfection 02:59 - My Public Speaking Toolbox 04:46 - Pre-Show Wrap Up 05:09 - Outro & Recommendations ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
