The footage to gather

  1. The first coffee of the morning
  2. A barista preparing the featured drink
  3. The seat or counter where it is served

Keep a little time before and after each action. Record the detail at a readable scale and keep the unedited files so that you can check what a cut leaves out.

Plan a working-day story

Opening

Open before the business is ready for customers.

Middle

Follow one preparation step through to completion with its natural sound.

Ending

Show the point where the work becomes useful to a customer.

Review it for cafes

Check opening times and make seasonal availability clear.

Ask before approving: Does the sequence explain the care behind the work?

Watch once without reading your brief. If the intended answer is missing, revise the sequence or record the missing evidence before adding more effects.
