Video Creation Fundamentals

Rush makes creating videos simpleand fun. But before you start using the application, it’s useful to considerthese guiding principles:

1.      TheMessage. What is the key message you are trying to convey? What is the call toaction for your viewers? Keep that front and center. How will you tell thatstory in 60 seconds?

2.      Duration.60 seconds. No more, no less. Keep in mind the golden triangle of the 1-minutevideo. 

3.      Music.Choose a track that you think fits the message you are trying to convey. Spendtime picking carefully. Music will set the pace and tone for your video.

4.      100-150words. Write these words first. This should be the narrative or V/O for yourstory. Do not write more than 150 words MAX. Even if you plan interviews,define what you would ideally have the speaker say, in advance. 

5.      VideoFootage. Consider what footage you will now need to cover the 150-word storyyou have written. This guides what you capture, what you don’t, your needs forStock footage, graphics and other considerations.
