What does it really take to deliver confident, polished live video that connects? Whether you’re presenting in Zoom, hosting a live stream, or recording for your course or business, your digital stage matters more than ever. In this episode, we sit down with Alec Johnson of Take One Tech and the Digital Stage Academy to talk about delivering value with clarity, confidence, and connection—without the overwhelm.

Alec shares how he went from struggling to create a single course video to building an entire business around “one-take” live production. We explore the difference between live streaming and live-to-tape content, the tools he recommends for boosting presence and polish, and why using Ecamm and presentation software together is a game-changer.
