RECORDING YOUR VIDEO.Double check before you start. Key point to easily record your video is to read and pay attention to details. When you double checked to assure all your settings are perfect, you're ready to begin. The following provides a check list of settings to assure a quality video recordings. 1. BACKGROUND Select or create a plain bright background, uncluttered and neat in appearance. If it's too plain, just arrange a colorful painting or flower arrangement. This will assure no distractions and place the focused attention on your presentation. 2. LIGHTING Provide adequate lighting; use soft light, diffuse light, and consistent light levels. A certain amount of contrast is necessary for lighting a subject, but avoid direct high-contrast lighting. For example, when recording a face lit by strong sunlight from the side, the facial features in the shadow can be lost on video. 3. CLOTHING Dress for success with a conservative tone. Wear clothing colors that complement your skin tone and are sufficiently different from the background and other overlapping objects. Avoid bright colors. 4. TRIPOD When possible, use a tripod or any other method to stablize your camera, when recording video. A tripod will help to keep the video camera still and improve the overall quality of the recorded video. This prevents your recorded video from being jittery. Your camera should be 2-3 feet in distance. 5. AUDIO SOUND. Depending on your type audio source, you'll need to test the distance in accordance with your voice and volume. If possible, secure a microphone to a stable position avoiding paper shuffling or tapping noises.
