Everything You Need To Know About Facebook Cover Videos

Are you being 'too general' or 'too specific' in your videos?

Are you being 'too general' or 'too specific' in your videos?

 Our ultimate aim for any video, should be to get as much use from it as possible - this means thinking about longevity.

But when we write scripts and shoot videos it's usually easy to fall into a trap of making the script really precise - usually so we help out customers. For example, we include a price or a perhaps a date. But doing so can limit the use of our video as if anything changes, it's unusable.

And when we start to look at that, we can often head too far the other way - making the video too generic or general. And if we're here - we lose the viewers attention.

It's a real fine balance between the two, and in today's episode I talk about that.

Improving Your Office Set

Improving Your Office Set

Today, I'm taking a look at my shooting set up - how I go about setting up my office as a set so that it's ready to shoot. Now this episode is a little visual - so you might be wise to check out the video for it.

Head to Facebook and look for our group: How To Shoot Video For Your Business.

-----------

Personally, I think it's about like film and editing - I think about layers and texture. I consider whats in the fore, mid and background, and then try to light/texture each so that it provides balance to the shot.

And just as reinforcement to the episode - this setup has come around over the last year or two and constantly 'learning from doing', so whilst I encourage you to think of set design - please don't it stop you from starting your video journey. I'm hoping sharing my setup provides some inspiration/direction/thought, rather than shaming someone into not recording their video.
