Common Mistakes People Make When Creating Videos
Well, most of us commit the mortal mistake of assuming that making a video is a piece of cake but let us inform you that shooting a video is much more than focusing on the subject and editing it afterward. It involves many technical steps, ultimately affecting the final product.
So, instead of shooting and editing videos yourself or trying to make do with low-quality videos, try to hire a video production company and let them put their resources together to get the desired results.
To help you avoid some basic errors that could prove to be costly, MiJo Productions has put together a list of the most common mistakes made in videos.
1. Not lighting your videos effectively
Lighting is one of the most important factors affecting the video’s quality. Over-exposure or less exposure to light can ruin a video completely. So, a video production company can help you as their trained team is in a much better position to understand the quality and exposure required with light, which will deliver you a perfect video.
2. Ignoring the audio
The audio aspect of a video is equally important. The sound effects can do wonders for any video piece, and a video production company has the desirable resources focusing on the audio aspect. They will add the audio to the video and make an excellent final product.
3. Not shooting and editing with the end in mind
We often make the mortal mistake of shooting a video and then editing it without focusing on the ending. But industry professionals know that a proper ending can conclude the video and reveal the meaning much better. They are the ones who can make the intended meaning of a video be expressed gleefully.
4. Not getting to know your video recording equipment
Recording or shooting a video is more than using a high-end phone with a focused camera. Right from cameras to recording equipment, there is a range of required equipment that you would need to record a video. If you are not from this industry, you are not expected to know about the equipment, but video recorder professionals do.
5. Thinking you’ll fix your video “in the post”
This is one of the most common mistakes people make. Thinking that a video can be edited during the posting part is next to impossible, and we can assure you that the result will be quite messy. Instead, try to hire a video production company and let their professionals do the magic. They will edit your videos in a specific way, enabling you to post them directly without requiring further editing.
6. Failing to frame subjects correctly
While editing or shooting your videos, you need to frame the subjects correctly in accordance with the larger and more extensive background. This is an art requiring both scientific skills and artistic aesthetics. There is a good chance that you are unable to fulfill both these aspects yourself. There is a team of trained professionals who can get it done for you in no time. Trust them!
