The footage to gather
- The everyday situation
- Two short spoken lines
- The exchange repeated with context
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
Open before the business is ready for customers.
Follow one preparation step through to completion with its natural sound.
Show the point where the work becomes useful to a customer.
Review it for language tutors
Check spelling and pronunciation in captions rather than trusting an automatic transcript.
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.
