Picture\u2019s up! 1 – 2 – 3 – Action! Aside from ghastly home movies of yesteryear, creating a film took Hollywood\u2019s directors, producers, actors, and more. Not any more! You can be the star yourself and create your own video! Why would you want to do that? Because your customers will love it! Best yet, you can do all of this with not much more than a smart phone! So let\u2019s take a look at what you should think about before you cry out, \u201cWe\u2019re ready to roll!\u201d

Some people can do improv and pull it off, making it look like they\u2019ve been rehearsing this part for years . . . but most people cannot. Assume that you are in the latter category. Plan your script. You don\u2019t need to write it out word-for-word – because there\u2019s little that is worse than being read to. Instead, rough out an outline highlighting the main points you want to make. Maybe you\u2019re showing your customers how to use the product. Figure out which tips and techniques are the most important, and focus on those. Your video will help your customers know what to do.

Unless you have a director and a stage manager, you\u2019ll need to do their work for them. Ask yourself some questions to get a grip on it. Are you going to show how to use the product right there in front of the camera? Are you going to explain a process and occasionally cut to a list of steps? Are you going to interview those who use your product so your newest customers can see and hear testimonials from seasoned users? Whatever you are going to do in your video, sketch it out so that you won\u2019t need to say wearily, \u201cTake 42.\u201d Your video will help your customers know how to do it.

You must have a purpose in mind or your video will slip into the wretched Home Movie category. Let\u2019s be honest. Most all of us would rather watch a video than read a blurb, but even so, you want your reason for creating the video to become your customer\u2019s reason for viewing it. Maybe folks have been confused about how to use a new feature that was just released. Perhaps you have exciting news about an upcoming conference, so details will be highlighted in your video. Whatever the reason, make sure that it justifies the time and effort that it will take to make a polished, streamlined video. Help your customer know why to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even if you are a rookie at both acting and filming, you might discover that you have a real knack for this. Act natural. Smile at the camera-phone. Explain things comfortably. If appropriate, allow your sense of humor to surface. Enjoy yourself along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
