5 things to consider before creating video content

  1. Find a studio or quiet place to create.
    ​
    It can be tricky to remove background noise and wind during editing. Make sure you have a place that looks and sounds great to film and create your video content.
    ​
    ​

  2. Let there be light
    ​
    Lighting is one of the most important elements of video content. It can make or break the video so be sure to consider how you using different lighting concepts as you create. We recommend illuminating yourself with multiple lights and illuminating the room to remove unnecessary or unwanted shadows.
    ​
    ​

  3. Consider the editing process
    ​
    Even though you can "fix it during editing" you'll want to make sure to reduce the number of things you need to fix later on.
    ​
    Always shoot in the highest video quality possible.
    ​
    Consider the clothing and the colors that you are wearing. Sometimes clothes can make a lot of noise or just be distracting with a bright color.
    ​
    If you make a mistake don't just start from the beginning. Take a moment and pick up where you left off. We recommend always taking a brief moment in between sentences to make the editing process easier.
    ​
    ​
    ​

  4. Presentation and Pronunciation
    ​
    It is always tempting to rush through the material on camera. Make sure you slow it down and consider the amount of information that you are providing.
    ​
    Emphasize important words or concepts and deliver your presentation with excitement and authentic enthusiasm.
    ​
    Check your speaking volume or mic placement as increasing the volume later during editing can distort or reduce the quality of the overall sound.
