How To Make Videos

Overview of set up: Record Device, Audio Recorder, Editing Software, Background, Computer.

Record device like video camera, iphone, webcam.

Audio recorder this is for making your audio better, but is not needed. ( You can use anything, but I like this recorder best

Editing software will make your video look better. (software for PC. MAC.

Background for more effect use green screen to change bad backgrounds. (CLICK HERE for where to buy green screens)

Computer you will need a good computer to edited long videos. ( PC CLICK HERE - MAC CLICK HERE

Ideas: All videos come from a idea, great videos come from ideas and planing.

Say yourself this "What do you want to show?" "What emotional do you want your viewers to feel? "If this is for business, what do you teach your employees?"

The answer to any one of the questions above will give you a starting point.

Plan: From your idea/s you will need to plan out your video, if it is to teach new employees what to do, you just need to say what you would say in front of new employees (note. no bad words because kids can be watching your videos.) Keep all videos simple and easy and most of all fun.

Record: Make sure you or anyone in front of the camera, looks the part, if it is for business look like your at a business meeting. (note. Have fun. Keep it simple and easy.)

If first try does not look good, try a again or if it still not looks right, say yourself "can I edited it to make it look right?"

Preview: Watch your videos to see if it needs to redo anything.

Editing: Cut out anything that looks bad. (Note. Try and keep your video no longer than 5 to 8 minutes long. because it will take a long time to finish editing.)

Preview your video if it need any last minute cuts to be done.

Finish Editing. if your video is longer than 10minutes it may take up to 20 to 60minutes or longer to finish editing.

Upload to your youtube account.

In youtube. Change your video title to remove dot wma or dot mov.

Add a description.

Add a tags that work for your video.

click save changes.

Preview: Reason why you need to preview your video 3 times, because when the video is up on youtube it may look not as good.

Share to your friends and family, business partners.
