How to make a good video on YouTube

How do you make a good video for YouTube?

I will take the time to explain the steps anyone should consider if they want to make a video that shows careful design and implementation.

Lets face it, YouTube is becoming more and more sophisticated as a medium. This means that you have to compete with more and more producers every day.

If you want to build an audience, you need to think outside the basic "birthday party" video. YouTube viewers are seeing more and more professional works from Disney and other production companies and they want to see videos of higher quality.

I take the time to explain steps that anyone should consider if they want to make a video that is of higher quality than the usual family video quality.

This will be part of a larger project that shows that even with basic cinematography knowledge that you can transition your film skills to video production.

I have shot film for many years and for me, transition to video was a matter of finding the equipment that I liked using. My Bell and Howell HR16 filmo  16mm movie camera skills, migrate fairly easily to anyone using a Digital video camera that allows for full manual or semi-automatic operation. In a companion piece:  called  "What Hardware do I use to record my videos, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBhMmeyHZVo&feature=c4-overview&list=UUBxx8Rd-gla5b2yF38Owj1w I show you my hardware.

What I use for equipment may not interest you but, you can use whatever equipment you like. You need to feel comfortable with your gear. Equipment is a personal thing and no one should judge another's choices.

These tips also work for those who want to continue to shoot film and later transfer the finished product to YouTube as well.

The real key of a good video is planning and a good story design.

There will be a few more segments to this series that will be released soon.
