Video tutorial on tips and methods for shooting short videos!

Tips for shooting short videos:

1. Horizontal screen shooting

Our mobile phones are all in portrait mode, but we are usually accustomed to watching videos in landscape mode to make full use of the space. Therefore, we try to choose landscape mode when shooting, so that the picture and proportion will be more comfortable. In addition, the landscape mode is more conducive to the layout of the video screen, and the effect will be better than the portrait mode.

2. Composition issues

No matter what you are shooting, you must learn the basics of composition and know how to use appropriate composition to capture the picture you want and avoid it appearing ordinary. Photographers should be selected who have a certain foundation in photography, or who have good aesthetic sense, to avoid cluttered pictures and chaotic composition, and to ensure the beauty of the scene.

3. Learn to move your focus

You can use the scenery around you to practice moving the focus back and forth, so that when you encounter a suitable scene, you can fully move the focus and collect relevant shooting images.

4. Shooting techniques

Push: It also means push shot, which means the subject does not move, but the camera moves forward to shoot, and the field of view changes from large to small, highlighting the main character and key image.

Pull: Pulling the lens, the camera moves backward, the framing range changes from small to large, drawing the audience's attention from the part to the whole, giving people a more comprehensive impression.

Shake: refers to the machine being stationary, while the body relies on the chassis on the tripod to make up-and-down, left-and-right, and rotational movements, so as to better express the space, the relationship between people and objects in the space, and to connect the things in the environment for expression.

Move: Also known as mobile shooting, mobile shooting specifically refers to placing the camera on a vehicle and shooting the subject while moving along a horizontal plane.

Follow: The camera follows the moving object to shoot. There are shaking and moving follows, and you can also follow with shaking and moving, which is used to better express moving things.

What should I pay attention to when shooting short videos?

1. During the shooting process, avoid a cluttered picture and avoid the subject not being prominent. A successful composition should have the characteristics of prominent theme, prominent emphasis, concise and detailed picture, and be pleasing to the eye. The second is video quality. If you are afraid of hand shaking, you can use anti-shake equipment, such as a tripod, monopod, stabilizer, etc.

2. Prevent shaking: Hand shaking is a fatal flaw for many video shooters. We can buy a bracket to fix the lens. If you need to move, be sure to put your arms on both sides of the body and stabilize your gestures. Move your whole body when following the shot and don't move the phone. This will reduce fluctuations in the video. If you find that the video is shaking, you can also use post-production software to adjust it.

3. Pay attention to light: Light is very important when shooting videos. A good light layout can effectively improve the picture quality. Use soft light when shooting portraits to enhance the beauty of the picture. Avoid obvious shadows and exposure. If the light is not clear, you can manually illuminate the person's face or use a reflector to adjust it.

4. Picture conversion problem: Pay attention to the picture conversion problem when shooting. You cannot use one lens focal length to shoot the entire line. Pay attention to the conversion between panorama, medium shot, close-up, and close-up. Especially when shooting specific characters, you must pay attention to this, otherwise the scene will be very boring.
