Best practices for producing a fireside chat video
Set the Scene
Lighting and Audio
Prepare your Questions
Keep it Conversational
Get the audience involved
Another great option is to set aside some time for a good old fashioned Q&A. This gives attendees the chance to ask the guests directly about things they heard during the session or anything else they’re curious about. It’s a fab way for everyone in the room to connect, and it ensures the audience leaves with all the answers they were hoping for.

The History of the Fireside Chat
But in the midst of all that turmoil, a bright light shone through in the form of President Franklin D Roosevelt (aka FDR). He knew just what the American people needed: a good old fashioned fireside chat!
That’s right, FDR delivered 30 radio addresses aimed at easing people’s worries and making them feel like everything was going to be okay.
Even though he was just talking over the radio, it was like FDR was right there in people’s living rooms, sitting by their fireplace and having a chat. He became more than just a distant figure – but a real person to millions of Americans.
The fireside chats were immensely popular and helped FDR to connect with the public during some of the country’s most challenging times. Since then, the term “fireside chat” has become a common way to describe a casual conversation or talk, often between a thought leader and their audience.

The many different formats of a fireside chat
First up, we’ve got live fireside chats. These bad boys happen right in front of a crowd, just like a TED talk. But instead of one speaker, you’ve got a couple of cool cats sitting in comfy chairs and shooting the breeze. It’s like having a real-life conversation with your audience!
But wait, what if your audience is all over the place? No worries, mate – that’s where virtual fireside chats come in. You can broadcast your chat from anywhere in the world and your audience can tune in from the comfort of their own homes. And the best part? You can snag guest speakers who couldn’t make it in person! Talk about a win-win!
Now, some of you might be thinking, “But isn’t a fireside chat supposed to be live?” Well, not necessarily. Pre-recorded fireside chats can be just as awesome. You can edit out any boring bits and make sure the conversation flows smoothly. Plus, you can still engage with your audience in the comments section.
So there you have it – three fireside chat formats to choose from. Whether you go live, virtual, or pre-recorded, just remember to keep it cosy, keep it chill, and keep your audience engaged – and above all, keep it Bold.

Why you should have a fireside chat for your business
Plus, when you bring in speakers to share their stories and expertise, your audience gets to break new ground in topics that interest them. It’s like having a front-row seat to a mind-blowing TED talk!
Now, we know that holding a fireside chat virtually might seem like a tall order. But trust us, the work is well worth it. Not only can you connect with people all over the globe, but you can also improve your company’s transparency, collaboration, and overall connection.
