Things to do before making a video

🎬 Lights, camera, ACTION! If you want to create a video that will knock your audience's socks off, you need to follow some 🔥 hot tips. First things first, figure out what kind of video you want to make and make sure it's not a total snooze-fest. 🤔 Will anyone actually want to watch it? And what's your goal with this video, anyway? Don't just wing it, you 🦩 fabulous creature, you. Have a solid plan in place and watch the magic unfold.

🎥 Now, onto the nitty-gritty: structure. You want to make sure your video is as engaging as a 🚀 rocket ship taking off. Start with an 🔥 attention-grabbing hook that'll have your audience begging for more. Sprinkle in some dreamy 🌈 promises and terrifying 😱 fears to keep things interesting, and don't forget to keep it short and sweet, folks! Ain't nobody got time for a 30-minute video. And for the love of all that is holy, include a clear and concise call-to-action. Your audience wants to know what to do next, so don't leave 'em hangin'.

📹 When it comes to production, you want to film like a pro. Get that camera at eye-level, adjust the lighting like a boss, and preview that test footage on the biggest screen you can find. And if you want to avoid pesky shadows and bring some brightness to your shot, position your object in front of a window or whip out that trusty whiteboard. And don't forget about artificial light - a ring light at a 30-45 degree angle will do wonders for your video quality.

🎬 Now, onto editing. This is where the real magic happens. And you know what really makes a video pop? B-roll, baby! Get creative and throw in some killer footage that'll take your video to the next level. And if you're working with an editor, make sure to share your vision and be as detailed as possible. Ain't nobody got time for re-edits, am I right? 😅

And now for the moment you've been waiting for - my golden rule for filming a video. 🥁 Drumroll, please... Do whatever the heck feels natural to you! Whether you're a batch recorder 🎬, a spontaneous genius 🧠, or just really dig filming yourself 🤳, you do you, my friend. After all, the best videos come from the heart, not some rulebook. So grab that camera, let your freak flag fly 🚩, and make some epic content that'll leave your audience begging for more! 🤩
