Summary
If you're an entrepreneur who's regularly on social media but feels a little nervous about speaking or showing your face on camera, let me introduce you to the power of B-roll!
This style of content has been around for years, and it's one of the most effective (and comfortable) ways to show up consistently without the pressure of always being "on." B-roll allows you to share your work, your process, and your story visually, helping your audience connect with you on a deeper level.
In today's episode, I'm breaking down how to confidently approach this style of content creation so you're never confused or left in the dark. I'll share practical tips on what to film, how to use it strategically, and how to build a library of footage you can pull from anytime.
Plus, I'm giving you a few resources to help you get the ball rolling and start generating content right away, so you can grow your visibility, strengthen your brand, and connect with your audience with ease.

| 0:09.8 | Well, hey there, welcome back to the podcast. This is She's Equipped with Jennifer Allwood. I am Jennifer Allwood. Thank you so much for being here. We're going to talk about B-roll today and why you should be recording B-roll, like every single week, if possible, |
| 0:23.1 | what B-Rour is. And then I've got a great freebie for you that's going to help with this. |
| 0:27.7 | Okay, so listen, if you are a business person, you own a business, you're showing up on social |
| 0:33.5 | media in any capacity, you need B-Rill. B-Rull is what makes your content, like, |
| 0:39.2 | look really polished, look really professional, but it's also, you know, personal because it's |
| 0:43.9 | things that you're doing and which makes it relatable. And so B-roll explained simply is like |
| 0:51.5 | secondary footage. So I want you to think of like video of you typing, video |
| 0:55.4 | view just walking through the office. Maybe you're making coffee. Maybe you're packaging in order. |
| 1:00.6 | And then you take that video and you put a voice over of your voice or somebody else's over it. |
| 1:06.9 | You put trending audio, which is music that has the little arrow to it. Or you turn it into a teaching clip, et cetera. And so I actually had to look it up. Like, where did the term B roll come from? Because I didn't even know. But it comes from like the old film editing days when editors like literally used two reels. They had an A role for the main |
| 1:29.5 | footage and then they had a B roll for extra shots to like cover up, you know, when they tried |
| 1:34.2 | to seem two pieces of film together or if there was a mistake or something. And so even though we |
| 1:38.9 | don't use film anymore, the name stuck. And so B roll just means any supporting footage, you know, like a cutaway, |
| 1:45.9 | a behind the scenes, anything that makes like, it's a video of you not talking to the screen. |
| 1:53.0 | All right. So if you are someone who hates talking to the screen, like let's say you've been |
| 1:59.9 | in my coaching group, you're in, |
| 2:02.1 | she's equipped and you hear me talking about video and you're like, gosh, Jen, I just don't |
| 2:05.4 | like to talk to the camera. Then you even need more B-roll. And so this is for those of you |
| 2:10.9 | who are like, what do I post? You post video of you doing something with some words with it, |
| 2:15.8 | with some music with it, with some audio with it. |
| 2:17.9 | And now this is like a library of clips that you have that you can make real, stories, |
