Rules for Good Video 2

2. Have some thing to say.
I know this sound elementary, but how many You Tube videos have you seen were people are just rambling on and on. So think about what you want to say, write it down if you have to and then read it aloud to your self before you turn the camera, or cell phone on. What did you say, you just want to shoot some outdoor scenery. That's fine, but "have some thing to say" zoom in on a stream, find some animals doing something. Just don't plop the camera there just to see trees, make it interesting. There are a million stories out there, you just need to dig them out.
