Reading notes from the side of your screen makes you look away from the camera, and everyone can tell.
ctrlhq scrolls your script right beneath the camera, so your eyes stay close to the lens while you read.
Try it
Hey everyone, welcome back. Today I want to show you something small that changed how I work. My script sits right under the camera, in the notch, so I can read it and still look you in the eye. I pick the speed, I pick the size, and if I need a second I just pause. That's it. Let's get into it.

Text sits right below the lens, so you look at the audience while you read.
