Talks under the camera.
Each film is a different talk.
What to watch for.
Word by word
The bright word moves through names, numbers and technical terms as they are said.
Off script
The voice leaves the script for a while. Watch what the bright word does.
A slip and a fix
The voice gets something wrong and corrects it, then carries on.
A pause
The voice stops for a few seconds. The text waits.
Slides
In the talks with slides, the next slide comes up when the talk reaches it.
Questions
Is this a real talk?
No. Each film is a scripted demo talk, and the people and figures in it are fictional. The voice reached SAYA through a virtual audio cable, not a room microphone. The accent names are the voice library's labels.
Are the films edited?
No. Each film is one take of one talk from start to finish, with opening and closing titles added.
What does the bright word mean?
It marks your place in the script and moves as you speak.
