ARAPAHO NATIONAL FOREST, Colo. — Content Creators’ founder Tony Russell recently took a trip to Colorado for a wedding celebration and a cabin overnight.
He recently shot, edited and published a quick video of the trip showing how just a few shots can turn any video into a social media content piece.
This video Russell created actually mirrors a real scenario most commercial and news groups face on a daily basis… adding video/audio shot from mobile devices.
With the advent of cloud storage services like Dropbox, WeTransfer and Google Drive , companies like Content Creators can easily download these client-generated videos to editing and publishing platforms.
Content Creators, also uses Apple’s proprietary services like AirDrop to quickly transfer videos and content obtained by an iPhone right to a Macbook Pro laptop or iMac desktop computer.
AirDrop is an easy way to transfer iPhone video content from the field without any quality loss.
Some shots to be converted/edited to fill the high-definition resolution parameters, which most news agencies deal with when eyewitnesses shoot video/pictures in vertical or portrait modes.
- A photo shot in vertical is edited to fit the high-definition resolution.
Recommendations for clients or viewers sharing video to commercial production or news agencies.
- Always attempt to shoot landscape or horizontal video. This won’t crop the image/video and help in the editing process to fill the entire screen with video.
- Stay steady and wide. Don’t attempt digital zooms or walk. If you need to pan, do it slowly.
- Shoot in 10 to 15 second bursts.
- If shooting an interview, get close so the phone’s microphone can pickup the subject’s voice.
- Try your best to observe the 10 to 15 second rule with mobile phone interviews. Shorter clips mean smaller files to transfer.
- Try to keep your content under 20-30 clips.
- Add all the video and pictures into one shared folder if using a cloud service to transfer.
Content Creators can provide edit client-created video, provide correspondents/reporters, field producers and video production services.
