Use This Free Online Teleprompter for Your Next Video
If you want to shoot a video and do not like to be silent, the free Teleprompter utility will help you . All you have to do is open their website in a browser, copy and paste any script (or notes). ) you will want to scroll the screen. You can adjust the scrolling speed and text size using the sliders – and you’ll definitely want to play with both to get the perfect combination that works best for your conversational rhythm.
You can’t change anything while your words are scrolling, but you can use some useful keyboard shortcuts to customize your pre-prompt options. Adjust the scrolling speed, for example, using the left and right arrow buttons on your keyboard, or use the up and down buttons to increase and decrease the font size. While your words are scrolling, you can stop and start by pressing the space bar, or rewind to the beginning (and stop) by pressing Escape.
The free teleprompter allows you to copy and paste words in text or rich text format, and adjust margins and alignment for the perfect look of your virtual teleprompter. You can even flip the entire screen horizontally or vertically if you need your text to be mirrored for whatever setting you use.
Finally, and most importantly, you can save and open scripts on your desktop. It won’t save your settings, just the words, but it’s a handy way to save or import your scripts if you don’t want to mess around with copying and pasting again.
While the Teleprompter website also offers a voice control feature that supposedly allows text to scroll at any time, I couldn’t get it to work on Edge Chromium, but it worked fine in standard Chrome. You have to read exactly what is on the screen for the scrolling to work, but this is useful if you need to add a little more action to your delivery rather than relying on a set scrolling speed.
