Five-Minute Video School
1) Create an Outline:
Storytelling is all about flow. Before shooting, outline your project. For instance, if you're creating a video for an engagement party, you might structure it like this:
- Ancestry
- Parents' wedding
- Birth and childhood
- School years
- Careers
- Key life moments
- Meeting each other
- Relationship journey
- Engagement
- Recap with a closing message
2) Gather Raw Material:
Before you even pick up the camcorder, gather your materials. Consider yearbooks, old ads, vintage recordings, and anything that captures the essence of your story. Look for audio and video from bygone eras to add depth and emotion.
3) Choose Appropriate Music:
Align your music with the story transitions. Different eras and sections in your outline indicate music changes, providing emotional cues and narrative flow. Consider your audience and select music that’s fitting, whether it's warm and nostalgic or lively and modern.
4) Simplify Effects:
Stick to basic transitions like dissolves. Overusing flashy effects distracts from the story?"your focus should be on the subject, not the effects.
5) Shoot Intentionally for Editing:
Plan your shots: long, medium, close-up, and cutaway. For instance, capture the couple in a garden with various angles and details, like a close-up of the wedding ring or a shot of a newspaper announcement.
By adhering to these guidelines, you'll elevate your video storytelling skills. Get out there and start creating! Good luck!
