Video filming tips:
- Shoot in landscape mode, not portrait. Make sure to film all pieces of your video the same way to make them easier to edit together.
- Make sure that your camera angle only picks up green in the background. If you pick up anything on either side of the screen or the floor, you will not be able to edit it out.
- Try mixing video and stills for a more dynamic finished product. You can even edit the video together, then record yourself speaking over the top in a voiceover.
