Shooting for YouTube
Recently, I have been involved with shooting new videos for our company YouTube channel, so I think I’d like to talk about that today.
Our newest YouTube series involves explaining the entry requirements of various schools, with me explaining the requirement in a manner that is easy to understand but that covers everything in a concise manner. Some of the schools that we’ve covered are Keio PEARL, International Christian University’s liberal arts program, and Ritsumeikan APU’s APM program. We have since filmed several more videos, and we just finished filming another one today. I do hope to add more videos in addition to the ones we have published and the ones that we have shot today and last week, so we will work to make some additional videos, as well.
I find this to be a unique challenge, as although I am generally good at public speaking and can give presentations with little to no effort, I have found that when recording footage I tend to do many retakes to get everything perfect. For some videos, it was easy for me to do everything perfectly on the first attempt, but for most of them, I would end up doing multiple takes. Sometimes I would redo the entire video from the beginning and other times I would just restart where I was, depending on how well I felt I was doing before making a mistake. While I had difficulty doing this at first, I have gradually gotten better at it and have generally been doing increasingly small amounts of retakes compared to how I did in the past. An improvement, for certain, but I feel that I can do even better with more practice and experience, which I hope that I will be able to gain in the near future.
