1. Preparation before shooting

First of all, you need to have a mobile phone. Of course, a camera is also acceptable, but mobile phones are convenient and fast, and the pixels are not bad ~ a stabilizer bracket , the stand allows us to take a wider view when taking selfies, and the picture will not be unstable due to bumpy walking when recording.

Secondly, you need to determine the content of the video. Is it travel or daily life? When shooting for the first time, we can refer to other vlog bloggers and start by imitating them to understand the vlog routine. If you feel a little embarrassed to speak in front of the camera, that’s okay. You can start with a vlog of pure background music without any vocals.

2. How to shoot interesting content

How to shoot interesting and attractive video content is the top priority of micro-recording vlog. To summarize, roughly It can be divided into two parts:

1) High-quality content

Content determines the amount of video playback and whether people have the motivation to watch it. This is a very important point. Don’t shoot everything when recording video. Too much useless material will increase the burden on post-editing.

If you want to understand why others want to watch your vlog, there are only two reasons. One is to understand your life, and the other is to see things you have never seen or eaten before, so freshness is very important. We can take pictures of beautiful scenery, share delicious food, and also take some funny clips. We try to think about what kind of content is more interesting from a third-person perspective. The most taboo is long-winded content that looks like a running account. Every time we see it This kind of vlog will be closed immediately within 10 seconds. It felt like I was back in school, and the teacher was talking about "heavenly books" that I couldn't understand, which made me sleepy.

2) Lens language

If showing the picture is also very important, good lens language will make your video content more attractive. Next, I will introduce you to some common methods of moving the camera:

① One shot to the end. This method is commonly used in movies. When editing, it is paired with paused slow motion to create a stronger sense of rhythm.

②Subject follow. In this kind of picture, you need to ask your friends to help~Be sure to stay stable when moving.

③Slow motion, suitable for shooting some beautiful pictures.

④For the time-lapse effect, you only need to fix the phone and shoot for a few minutes, and then use the acceleration effect to play it~

Of course, in addition to these, there are many ways to move the camera. Use them to transition pictures, which can make your video more colorful~

3. How to edit in the later stage

Editing is also a very important step in micro-recording vlog, and now many software can do it Edit videos on your mobile phone, such as VUE, Maobi, Yidian... It is easy to operate and easy to use.

If you are a high-definition person, you can also use a more professional PR to edit. In short, it is OK to choose the editing tool according to your needs.

The following will teach you the simplest editing method. After selecting the background music, switch the screen according to the rhythm of the music~ This way the screen will look much smoother and not rigid. The duration of each empty shot should not exceed 5 seconds. If it is too long, it will be boring.

4. Good sharing platform

The last and most important thing is to choose a good platform. After all, the vlog that you have worked so hard to create is in vain if no one sees it. Here we recommend Weilu app, a platform that focuses on socializing vlogs. It not only has a large number of excellent vlogs at home and abroad, but also has many tutorials on how to make vlogs.
