If you\u2019re planning to train people to include video clips in the form of \u2018pieces to camera\u2019 in their digital story or \u2019short\u2019, there\u2019s a lot people need to learn:<\/p>\n

– how to feel comfortable and come across as well as they can on camera
\n– how to say something that\u2019s engaging for the viewer
\n– how to set the camera up to record video
\n– how to set the camera up to record audio
\n– how to frame their shot and not move or zoom the camera
\n– the possible importance of taking covering shots and to tell the full story in the overall visual narrative
\n– etc., etc.
\n– how to review and check everything before deciding all necessary rushes are there and that \u2018it\u2019s a wrap\u2019.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll probably need to allow at least a day for all that.<\/p>\n
