General tips for taking videos:
  • Always test that the camera is working properly before taking any important shots that you don't want to miss or mess-up.
  • Use a tripod or monopod to keep the camera steady. Viewers can get dizzy if the video jerks around the place. This is especially important when zooming in, since any camera movement will be exaggerated.
  • Always try to have the light source coming from behind you.
  • Don't add special effects in-camera. Leave them till post-production.
  • Use an external microphone if possible, so as to avoid picking up camera noise.
  • Use manual focus, if possible, to avoid the camera having to make constant adjustments.   thesource (378)
