You’ve just realized it’s your friend's birthday today — what do you do? What do you think about a birthday video message for a best friend?
Most people send a text message or write a quick message on Facebook. They write things like “Happy Birthday!” or the classic abbreviated “HBD.” These little messages are always lovely to get on a birthday but often fall short of being sincere and hardly ever come off as meaningful, even if they're meant to be. So what to say in a birthday video message for a friend?
Birthday video message for a friend - how to create one?
Take an extra minute or two and record a short video message for a friend's birthday. The truth is, recording a birthday video message is remarkably easy, and you don’t even need to be tech-savvy either. A video message is an unexpected gesture and a surprise that is sure to be sincere.
Here are nine tips and tricks to make a fantastic birthday video message for a friend:
Just be you: No one is you, and that is your power.
Put yourself in their shoes: Think of what your friend would want to hear on their special day.
Share a memory: It can be a recent event or something that happened a long time ago. Whether it’s a story from a travel experience, attending a concert, playing sports, or sharing a yummy meal, if you’ve done it mutually, it will be fun to reminisce.
Location, location, location: Try to record your video clip in a special or interesting location that your friend would enjoy.
Use a quote: Read a quote that reminds you of your friend.
Sing a little: Use lyrics of a song to express yourself or bring up part of a song that you both enjoy and connect with. Of course, it's okay if you can't sing. It makes the video even more entertaining!
Compliments: You can't go wrong with a compliment. Remind them why they're so awesome!
Keep it fun: Make them laugh by bringing up an inside joke, using a creative filter, or greeting them with an original term of endearment or nickname.
Get others to join: The more, the merrier!
