#TalkRoMe Movement to Encourage Open Conversations Between Parents and Children

New video series, Talk to Me, features parents in a conversation with their children. Parents are encouraged to join this movement and share their own special moment, live on Facebook. Facebook Live is the latest offering by Facebook that allows its users to show their life, whenever and wherever they like.

This feature is super easy to use and particularly fun to capture a conversation with your special ones. All you need is a smartphone and your child/parent/grandparent/grandkids to make your very own #TalkToMe video. Just use the hashtag and include a short description. Remember to change the setting to Public if you want your video to feature on HuffPost.

Here is how you can make your own video in five simple steps.

1. What questions to ask

Prepare a set of questions that you would like to ask in your short video. Things like "tell me something that you've never told me," "What do you know now that you wish you knew when you were my age," "If you could have one wish for me and my children, what would it be," etc.

2. Shoot a video with your phone

It is better to place your video on your own than using a third person to film it for you. Place your phone on a something stable and at the eye level of both participants, sit at a 45-degree angle while facing each other, look at each other and not the camera and turn on video mode for a great shot. Always ensure that the light source is in front of you and not behind.

3. Tell your friends what your broadcast is about

Get your viewers attention by writing a short, yet crisp description. For instance, "Here I am with [my parent/child], taking part in The Huffington Post's ‪Talk To Me series highlighting important conversations between generations. Make your own on Facebook Live! #TalkToMe"

4. Make sure your internet connection is strong

Before uploading, make sure your internet connection is strong. Use Wi-Fi or 4G.

5. Tag friends and use hashtag #TalkToMe

Once your interview is up and live, tell your friends to do the same.
