How to make a good video.

Here is a list of rules that all the Teams can follow to make a good video.


1) PLAN.
Before you start, decide exactly, word for word, and picture for picture, what you will put into your video. Sometimes it helps if you draw this out roughly onto a sheet of paper. Like this example.

2) PREPARE.
Don't begin making your video until you have all the pictures chosen, the text typed, what you want to say written out and ready to record. Use the checklist on the bottom of the page to make sure you are ready to get to work on the video.


3) JOBS.
Decide who is going to do which job with the video. Who will be in charge of finding and deciding which pictures to use? Who will decide what text to put in the video? Who will write the text? It might be helpful if you decide on one person whose job is to make sure everyone else knows what job they have and are doing it.

Here is a list of different Jobs you might find useful!

You will also need to decide on who will be making the film. You will need editors, actors, readers etc. Talk about the different things that will need to be done.
