How to get started as a newbie in making short videos

1. Determine the theme of this issue

Just like no matter what you do, you must first determine a theme, the same is true for short videos and writing articles. Only after the theme is determined can we do anything with ease. Doing it step by step will help us complete the task.

There are many novice self-media people who just shoot and post casually from the beginning, without any clear theme or practical significance. Posting this kind of content on the platform is empty, and the platform will not recommend anything meaningless to you.

2. Write copywriting and scripts

Writing copywriting scripts means: writing the content of the video you want to shoot in advance, such as lines, etc., so as to avoid shooting The embarrassment of forgetting words and omissions during videos.

The script is to convert the copy into a video form to express it, such as which part is the key point, what to shoot in which part, storyboards, etc. With the large framework of script, efficiency can be improved faster.

3. Shoot into video

The simplest tools for shooting are mobile phones and tripods. Secondly, we must ensure the video quality, so the resolution should be adjusted to 1080p for optimal quality. The purpose of a tripod is to prevent the video from shaking significantly, thereby increasing the viewability of the video. In the end, it all depends on personal performance and technical issues.

4. Video editing

A good video needs to be edited, and sometimes good editing form is also very important.
