YouTube Tips

     The first video talked about setting up shots. It told people the importance of including many elements in one shot to make the scene more intense. Without including more than one element, the scene will tell a completely different story than if you include more than one element.


      The second video talked about the importance of lighting. It told people the benefits of having a light in front of your subject at a forty-five degree angle. Your second light should be lighter than your first light, but should also be placed at a forty-five degree angle. The back light, lights up behind the person and will eliminate shadows.



        The third video was about the types of shots to take when filming. Different shots give off different emotions. With the right shot you can influence your audience and their feelings toward your video.The types are a close up, medium closeup, a wide, and an extreme wide shot. Make sure your shot exudes the emotion you want your audience left with.

   
          Pairing a device involves connecting your TV, phone, or laptop to YouTube. It is pretty simple to do, under settings on your YouTube app you can choose "Pair Device". You simply enter the code and you will be paired with YouTube. With this feature, you can run YouTube on your TV from a laptop or your smartphone.
