Who Stresses You Out?

Ever felt stressed and under pressure at work? This sound is a great way to shed some light on the situation, as it asks the camera to be pointed at someone who makes you feel stressed.

This video can be filmed quickly and easily, even if you’re alone because spoiler alert, the camera normally ends up pointing at you! Here’s a great example, from Micheal Buble, showing that even A-list celebs are loving this trend.

It Is Not

Have you been in your job for months, perhaps years and have only just found something out? This audio is perfect for sharing your revelation in a funny and trendy way.

Using this sound, film yourself or your co-worker saying the words in disbelief and simply write the fact on the screen, and see the views soar! Click here to see a great example from a nail artist in Illinois.

Is there someone in your team who is known for overreacting? This sound is ideal to recall a stand-out moment over something that was never that serious anyway.
