You
Hello everyone!
Just like this couple, you must be planning your new camcorder on your next trip.
Of course you are!
It's very exciting and fun to watch the movie you're waiting for when you're back home.
But wait a second, let's see what he's filming there.
So, what do you think?
The image is shaking. It doesn't look good, does it?
It won't be nice to watch it later.
The basic principles of video are filming a lot and having fun filming.
The fun doesn't stop when you stop filming.
Try to have fun afterwards too.
Try to film in a way that you can enjoy the movie later.
There are two important points to keep in mind.
First, don't film for long periods of time.
The viewers can get bored if they watch the same movie for a long time.
Also, stabilize your images.
The viewer will feel uncomfortable if the camera shakes or walks from one side to the other.
So, I want to share these points with that couple over there.
After all, they're on vacation with their camcorder.
Sorry, I've been watching it for a while.
Your girlfriend is beautiful.
It's natural that you feel stupid about her.
But in my opinion, you're not doing justice.
You're just making plans to say goodbye to the camcorder.
Besides, it's the only thing that's being filmed for long periods of time.
It doesn't seem like it's going to be fun to watch this when you get home.
What?
What?
So we don't waste too much time, I'll go straight to what's important.
I'm going to show you how to make a fun and interesting movie.
Just by being a little more careful while you're filming, the result is totally different.
There are many other ways to enjoy the videos.
So, listen and let's get started.
Let's make an experiment.
Let's review what you just filmed.
Oh, I thought I was doing better than this.
It's really not going well.
One of the reasons is because the image is shaking.
That's true.
Many of you film like him, holding the camera in your hand.
That's why it's very important that you stabilize it.
So that this works when you're filming, you shouldn't shake or shake.
First, move your legs to shoulder width and relax.
Yes, that's it.
Then adjust it to your hand.
Put your elbows inside.
And stabilize the camera with both hands.
So, isn't that better?
Yeah, it looks better.
When you use the zoom, the oscillation is extended.
So, you cut something or put the camera on a fixed object to stabilize the image.
But still, it's better to keep the image leveled when you're filming.
Leveled?
Right. When the camera is not leveled, it gets crooked.
And that's why the image looks weird.
Film so that your girlfriend is on the right.
It's easy, but very important.
Just with this little change, the image looks more stable and better.
Wow! This little change makes a big difference.
See? Now let's take a look at this.
Just by doing this to this image, you can see the brightness of the ocean.
And how beautiful it looks on the boat, in contrast to the sea.
On the other hand, if you film more from the sky, the blue sky and the white clouds become the focus.
And the good weather seems to know even better.
As you can see, changing the location of the subject in the frame is called image composition.
The composition, on the other hand, changes the atmosphere of your filming.
Yes, I'm watching.
It is necessary to still pay attention to the composition when filming people.
For example, in these filming of a woman looking to the side, the image is not crooked or crooked.
But anyway it looks too full.
Right.
And now, if we put a little space in the direction she is looking at, see? It looks more balanced.
Again, right?
The angle in which it is filmed also affects the theme.
The angle simply means where it is filmed, above or below.
Observe.
These are the images that the father filmed of his daughter playing with soap balls.
And these are the same images, only filmed at the level of the child's eyes. What do you think?
In these, we can see the expression on the child's face, and she looks much more beautiful.
You can change the angle of the LCD monitor in your camera, so that you can film even at this very low angle.
There are many other angles to film, so try the largest number you want.
For example, look at these images.
The low plane from which the toy car was filmed, gives more intensity to the image.
Even a family image can look dramatic when filmed from another angle.
Such as this image of the flower, when filmed from below, gains greater depth, as you can see more than the ground.
Children and animals look great, as their facial expressions are broadened.
Well, folks, to film funny images that don't bore you after being filmed, there are some rules you should keep in mind.
And they are, film who or what, when and where.
Where do you film this?
I think yesterday, in the Botanical Garden.
Wait, wasn't it that park that had a fantastic view?
You see, if when you go to see these images later, you don't know who, what, when and where from your video,
for those who are watching them for the first time, the images don't make sense.
In other words, it's boring.
Wow!
How beautiful!
When you get to a place with such a beautiful landscape as this,
there it is!
What do you think?
This is what is called a long shot.
It captures the whole scene.
If you film the whole scenario or situation like this, you will easily identify the where.
But I can't see it very well.
It's true, but I hope to see it.
Ah! I'm seeing it!
When you put the different images in order, it can mean a lot.
It can mean where you were, who you were, and even the expression of your face.
In fact, the films are composed of multiple cuts.
They appear one after the other to create the whole film.
And if each cut tells a different story, there is a variety of images and the viewer is not bored.
Basically, long shots are a great way to understand a situation
and a great way to tell when a shooting is taking place.
We use the long shot to film certain scenarios and buildings.
Filming the finalization in tourist places is also an excellent way to show the where.
Yes, I'm seeing it! It's true!
When you have a wonderful panoramic view, do the following to capture it.
Move the camera horizontally in a slow and steady motion.
This is called panoramic technique.
And finally, your girlfriend appears in the frame.
It looks great! By doing panoramic shots, you will get the where and who in one single shot.
Here is a tip for when you do panoramic shots.
First, look in the direction you want to end and turn your body.
Right, right!
Stabilize the camera, start shooting and slowly turn your body to the original position.
When you do panoramic shots, try to do it slowly and make sure you shoot the beginning and the end.
Here it is! This is a tripod.
You can get stabilized images with this equipment.
And you can even do smooth panoramic shots. It's very useful!
Panoramic shots
Next, we will try to shoot focusing on who.
Yes, it's true! The close-ups that our friend has been doing make it easy to identify who.
Let's talk about the zoom button, which exists in many cameras.
The zoom button controls the field of view.
T means telephoto and allows you to shoot objects as if approaching them.
W means wide angle and allows you to shoot areas with greater aperture.
I knew that!
So, why if I change to T, the frame amplifies?
Huh?
Look at this!
Here we have a father filming his daughter in a park. It's a very common scene, right?
And the child moves actively from one side to the other. These are the father's shots.
In this case, the father was shooting from afar using the telephoto mode.
And as we saw earlier, shooting in telephoto mode makes the image seem to be shaking.
So what's this?
So, this time it doesn't feel like shaking that much.
Right! And it's because this time we use wide angle mode instead of close-up.
It's tempting to use close-up through telephoto mode, but if you're closer you can clearly see the expression.
Even when you walk, the image doesn't feel like shaking that much.
I'm watching.
Even on a beach like this, there's equipment that allows you to get closer to the child while filming.
It has sports protection. It protects the water and sand chamber.
You can get closer to your subject of filming even on the beach.
This gives you the feeling of being closer to the object.
You can even film some underwater scenes.
But there are many more fun ways to use it.
This is a scene where we film a tennis game.
However, the camera has to go behind the action.
This makes the spectators go crazy.
There's a fence behind it, so you can't get any further away.
In situations like this one, the wide angle conversion lens.
When using a wide angle conversion lens, you can film a large area even if you can't get any further away.
The angle becomes wider and it's easier to film children or other close-ups.
And if you use this conversion lens for tele, you can get even closer to what you intend to film.
This is a scene where you can get even closer to what you intend to film.
Now for when.
For example, how can we show the seasons of the year?
It could give someone an idea of ​​the season when it was filmed.
And besides, it would give the video a very different look.
For example, during the late afternoon you can film beautiful sunset.
If you use the sun effectively, you can get beautiful shots that show what time the action took place.
To show the seasons, filming flowers is also great.
I'm watching. So, as I said, I have to film not only people, but also when and where.
If you see how to understand these elements, it becomes an exciting visual experience.
It seems they begin to understand.
If you insert shots like these, you can see that time has passed in cuts.
However, if you leave the traditional cuts out of your film, you can only see yourself on the beach,
suddenly you're already having lunch, followed by more images you can eat,
which makes the viewer confused and doesn't understand what's going on.
For example, when you're in a place like this.
I'll film the sign.
Right!
Yuppie, here we go!
If she's next to the sign, we can know who's filming.
And for example, if she says something like...
I found a place that teaches how to dance hula.
I don't know if I'll know how to dance, but it seems fun.
If she says anything like this, we can learn a lot about the scene.
And the truth is that whoever sees it wants to know what's next.
Talking to the camera is a great way to build anticipation.
And, speaking of the passage of time...
In this example it's important to film the frame of the results from time to time.
So whoever sees it knows the game's status, which makes the game more interesting.
OK, we talked about what?
And we're going to film the hula dance!
OK, oops!
What happened?
Oh no, I'm out of battery!
And I forgot to bring an extra.
Nooooooooooooo!
Here it is! An extra battery.
When you're going to film for hours, it's safer to bring extra batteries and accessories.
And more, if you have a spare battery, when you're leaving the house, be careful to always have it fully charged.
Finally, don't forget that the charging takes some time.
If it's in a hurry, it's more practical to always have a quick charger at hand.
Now it's ready to start filming again.
Okay!
If, for example, after your girlfriend told you she was going to dance while you weren't filming, your spectator would feel deceived.
As you can see, it's very important that the movie you made, what you saw, where you walked, what you ate, etc.
Well, there's a technique that allows you to record the dog and the donkey together with the when and what, all at the same time.
Remember the long shots and the close-ups we talked about before?
There's a technique that allows you to film both at the same time.
This is called the Zoom technique.
First, film a little of the global scene.
Then press the T button on the camera.
Look, the field of view gets smaller and you can see that your girlfriend looks bigger on the screen.
That's zooming in.
Now, this is an example to zoom out.
As you can see, your girlfriend is enjoying something that you can't see in close-up.
Press the W button and here it is!
We can see that she was in the middle of a massage.
You can tell a story in just one cut.
In this scene, if you zoom in on this part of the scene, it's easier to know what the close-up will be.
Remember, always film the beginning and the end of the zoom in the right way.
OK, in short, what do we need to make a creative, interesting and fun video?
We have to be able to clearly define who, what, when and where after we film.
When and where after we film.
Exactly!
Keep in mind how your shots will turn out.
If you keep that in mind, you'll have fun.
Now, give her a look at these shots.
Why is she so happy?
Oh, that! We got lost on our way to the restaurant.
So, I had to film lost.
See, if you put her images to the map, ask directions, walk and even some images that show the passage of time and relating to the previous scene...
The viewers will understand why I was so happy.
It's true, emotions take over the screen.
I really enjoyed the long and close-up shots, the result of both is different.
It allows the video to look varied and, as soon as you see it, you won't feel bored.
Long shots that don't have any kind of visual appeal are boring.
An average cut should have 5 seconds.
Using the same angle and the same compositions can also make the video boring.
It's ideal to give meaning to each scene.
Well, I think you know everything. OK, we'll meet you at your house.
My house?
Yeah, remember what I told you at the beginning?
There's still the fun part after filming the video.
Oh, I forgot to tell you that the video is not a video.
OK, as I said, film only half of the fun.
You have to watch it too.
And that's why we're watching it.
Great! I recommend it to be seen on a big screen TV.
