My Own Practice Tutorial Video


Evaluation of my own instructional video -

Creating my own instructional video did prove somewhat difficult at times, but I think it turned out okay. Firstly, when it came to filming each shot I had to use a handheld camera, meaning each shot was slightly unsteady due to not having a tripod / something to rest the camera on. This made the overall video not as great as I hoped, but I know that when I do come to create my barbering dry run, and also the final product for the client, I will be using a tripod to make each shot steady, making it look more professional. Cutting between each clip, I decided to use a simple cut, rather than using something that could be distracting or things like graphic effects, as I thought that was most suitable for this genre of video. As well as this, after watching several other barbering videos, the large majority also use simple cuts from one clip to another. 

Throughout the video, I tried to include a variety of different camera angles for each shot, so the video didn't feel the same throughout / continuous. I included the liked of wide shots, close up and extreme close ups, etc. Which will also be included when i come to create the final barbering video. 

Furthermore, instead of using a voiceover, I decided to use text on screen with some light background music. I thought this was best suited for the video, but when we come to create the video for the client a voiceover will be used, and possibly use of background music to fill the scene.

Feedback   After distributing a google form to receive feedback and asking questions like what the audience thought and what I could improve on, I have since received answers which will help me when I come to create the final video. When asking the audience what they thought of the video, I was told that it is short and informative, as well as well edited together and the aim of the video is clear. Asking what I could improve on, I have learnt that when I come to create my final video to be assessed, ways I could make it more appealing are to: Use more visual effects Add an outro Provide text on screen to explain what is happening in each step, making the video easier to follow, and also making it appeal to a larger audience Adding a cutaway Following this, I also asked which parts the audience liked most, to perhaps bring into my final piece: The shot types used The volume of the music and voiceover ( how the volume lowered when he spoke ) The overview at the end, to show what the...
