Here are the key ingredients to traveling as a videographer 🎬 ✈️ 1. Apple Airtags- yeah I bet you weren't expecting that but it's honestly one of the more important aspects that often gets overlooked. If your bags and gear aren't being tracked, there's no way you'll ever build the confidence to fly your equipment over and over again💡 2. Master your Craft- you need to be good enough to still produce great content without the studio, the expensive lights and the heavy equipment. By mastering your craft, you should still be able to produce a great video with minimal camera gear, lighting and audio. 🛠️ 3. Fly Solo- This isn't always possible but when you can, slim down your production to just 1 person. This makes it easier for clients to consider flying you across the country for a shoot. When you add more people to the shoot, suddenly your equipment doubles, your paying for 2 seats on a plane, 2 hotel rooms, etc. 🎥 #sanantoniovideoproductions #videographer #videoproduction #sony #filmmaking #corporatevideo #conference #fx3

Editing Breakdown: Sometimes Less is More 🎬 This is a great example of a promotional spot that focuses on being impactful with it's cuts & visuals. With a clear goal in mind, the shoot day and the final edit was pretty straight-forward. The goal was to create a general promotional video for Krysus HP, a recovery center for athletes and people with labor intensive jobs. Since this needed to be created in a very short amount of time, we set out to collect what we needed in 2 days of production and a 48-hour turnaround edit! We were able to collect the majority of the shots we needed in those 2 days but also supplemented our edit with 4 stock clips from Storyblocks.

🎬 "Why do you use a Clapperboard?" 🎬 People are always fascinated to know what its purpose is, so I thought I'd share it with you. For me, there are 3 main reasons it's an absolute 'must' on any shoot: 1. Syncing Sound and Picture: The clapperboard helps me synchronise the audio and video during editing. The sharp “clap” sound and the visual of the clapper closing make it easy to match the sound with the corresponding frame (meaning I can record the sound on superior, dedicated audio equipment and not rely on the camera's inbuilt audio system). 2. Scene Identification: It helps me record essential information like the take number and production title. This helps me quickly identify and organize the footage in post-production; which leads to the third reason: 3. Time Saving: Being able to quickly identify which video clip matches its complimentary audio clip saves me a ton of time, when editing. So, next time you see me with my trusty clapperboard, you’ll know it’s not just for show but a crucial piece of my kit for creating movie magic! 🎥 Okay, yes! It's cool too, I admit.🤷🏻♂️ #Filmmaking #BehindTheScenes #MovieMagic #VideoContent #CorporateVideo #Film #TV #Video #Drone

What your “videographer” isn’t telling you… 🤦🏽♂️🤣 . . You don’t need them. You don’t need me. You have a phone that’s better than most cameras the average shooter is using today. I HATE doing video projects that don’t produce results. It only builds resentment in the end. Once you have people looking at you or your business they already made a decision to give you their attention. Now.. what should you do with this short period of time? Send me a DM and I’ll tell you. . . . #atlvideographers #atlvideoproduction #marquesejamesmedia #contentmarketing101 #businessdiscussions
