Making videos isn’t just as simple as taking your camera and pressing record. If you want quality videos that will catch the attention of millions of viewers, you’ll need to know the general steps to follow.
1. Choose your equipment wisely. How are you going to make a video without the right equipment? You need to know what kind of equipment you need exactly based on your budget and what kind of video you’re making. If it’s just a video for fun, then go ahead and grab whatever camera you have at home. If you’re entering at a contest in a film festival, then you’ll need something more fancy.
2. Choose your subject. What are you going to film? Make sure it’s something interesting, and not just something that’ll interest a few people. If you want to fish a lot of viewers then you’ll need to film something that’s currently popular or trending.
3. Start filming. The actual process of filming is the fun part. Make sure to capture all the scenes you need. You might also want to film things over and over again just to make sure you have enough cuts to choose from when editing.
