Everybody have different ways of shooting, you know, like, techniques of how to get the object that you're going to film, if it's yourself, it's another thing, like, ways of like actually being a good videographer and capturing the right moment or the right object, you know, or like having the right frame and all that stuff, you know, so, and it's a lot of different ways to fail. So I'm going to talk about my techniques, you know, so I want to start with like a technique I know that a lot of people use which is like, what is called cinematic movements, you know, like cinematic shots. So what is cinematic shots, you know, when you typically like see a video on YouTube, or in television, and you see those clips of a car, behind the car, like going in slow motion, stuff like that, you know, it looks like awesome and beautiful, you know, you don't need to have it in your videos, but it's just a way of making the video look even more sexier, and more like cinematic which is like more grateful.

It's pretty easy. Actually. I got to tell you about this. cinematic shoots You know, I've been seeing a lot of videos about this in YouTube as well. And the only thing you need to think about when you're doing your cinematic shots is to try to hold your camera in this case the iPhone as stable as possible, you know. So actually if I want to fill my Osmo action camera, instead of like going too fast, I will film slowly around you know, because it's all about the movements.

So as long as the object that you're filming are moving a little bit, you know, like let's say this is moving this way and then I'm going around with the camera this way I will have a cinematic shot. cinematic shots is most used like B roll which is clips that you use over the main content. For example, if you are making a vlog on a beach and telling the camera how beautiful it is to be on this beach. Then after you're done with speaking about in 20 seconds about how beautiful it is to stay at this beach, you will have some cinematic shots that you take from the world. waves are from the people who are at the beach, relaxing and chillaxing and stuff like that, you know. So you can put that over like your content, like the main content, what you're talking about to the camera, cinematic shots is really like a good thing to do because it's make your videos look much better, like much more professional and cinematic shots does need to be so difficult to make.

It's just about your imagination, but just remember always like smooth movements, small clips, like nearby the object, or far away from the object, you know, just be creative and have it from different angles. That's what is all about in the cinematic shots. Another shooting technique that is really great to know about is to always try to center the object, you know, a lot of people who begin with making videos are not into that kind of stuff, you know, they're gonna film you and then suddenly when you see the shot after your friend has been filming you you will see that you're head is like on the right top of the of the frame, you know, that's not the way you want to be, you know, like you, you want to center it a little bit, you know, so you can be in the middle actually off the content.

I know people have different ways of what they think about this. Some people, some professionals, they say that you should be like, a little bit on the left side of the center, but I like to center it because that's when you're like in the middle of what's happening actually. And that's the cool with this Osmo action that I bought is that it has a like a screen on the front so you can actually see what you're filming. So when I'm filming myself, I can see the frame I can see like where I am in the frame like where I am in the victor in the image, you know, which makes it so much easier for me to control my own vlogs and know where I am like know what I'm talking to, you know, and that's pretty cool. Yes, look at this. Another cool thing is to do slow motion clips and actually you can use the same cinematic clips that you have and make them slow motion.

It just depends on the frame your filming yet. So for example, when I'm editing my content, I like to like edit it in 30 frames, that means that I can go for example up to 60 frames, turn it down halfway and make the clip, half slow motion, you know, if, for example filming hundred and 20 frames, I'm going to edit in 30 frames, I can slow motion it up to four times, but at the pass of the camera you have like, so yes, think about that. Because slow motion is really cool when you're making movies. You know, of course, it depends what kind of YouTube channel you have. But like for me as a vlogger, who makes videos about culture about my travels and stuff like that? I like to like speak to the camera, tell about things and then have some cool cinematic slow motion, like clips over the counter as well so you can kind of get the feeling out of it.

You know? That's Yes, that's a great thing to do. Slow motion is always a winner. So many people ask like also like, should I film in HD or should I film in 4k? And to be honest, like, of course, 4k is so much better because you will have like so much better resolution. But HD is smart and good enough to make your YouTube videos like most people that make video in 4k are people that make commercials for huge brands worldwide, you know, like, but when you want to make a normal YouTube video, it's okay to make it in HD.

And the reason that I'm saying that you can make them in HD thousand 80 is because when you film in 4k, you're going to take too much space, you know, and it's going to be even more harder to edit because it's going to take more space in your computer. So I prefer to film an HD it makes it so much easier for me. And still it's a pretty good egg quality Actually, it's more than good enough. The last technique I want to tell you about is the way I'm making this video right now that is that I have my camera my Sony camera right over there, and it stands on a stabilizer and it's filming me in still, you know I'm sitting here I'm talking directly into the camera. I'm not having a selfie stick in my head. I'm not having my They're filming me.

I just have the camera, put it on the table. And it's finished me by I'm talking about what I'm talking about. Which means that if you're, for example, going to make YouTube videos about you to just learning stuff or you just want to talk to the camera without moving around. This is the last way to do it is just like take the camera, film yourself. Tell what you got to tell. tell your story.
