How to shoot and edit videos

Video shooting and video editing operations are as follows:

First, shoot a video.

Editing software: Love editing version 4.0.

Operating system: Win7

Equipment: Apple mobile phone 12 (shooting) and Dell computer (editing)

1, script preparation

Before shooting a video, you can conceive a shooting script, that is, write a simple script, which mainly focuses on shooting time, scene, picture content, scene separation, mirror handling and so on.

2. Shooting equipment

In order to make a perfect video, shooting equipment is very important. Nowadays, the shooting function of mobile phones is becoming more and more powerful, which can basically meet the general shooting needs.

Of course, if there are higher requirements for shooting quality, then you can prepare shooting machines with higher imaging quality, such as SLR cameras and professional cameras. In addition, some auxiliary shooting tools are also essential, such as tripod, tripod head, fill light and so on.

Step 3 say goodbye

When shooting a video, you should understand the concept of Jingbie.

Scenery can be divided into distant view and close view (the environment where the subject is photographed), panoramic view (the whole human body and the surrounding environment), middle view (above the knee), close view (above the chest) and close-up (above the shoulder). When shooting, using the combination of pictures from different angles and different scenes to express the behavior or action of characters can make the shot video more professional.

Foresight and panorama are generally used at the beginning of a video or when switching to a new scene. The difference is that the foreground is mainly used to explain the environment, and generally there is no subject, while the panorama has a subject to explain the relationship between people and the environment. Mid shot and close shot are the main body of the character, which is used to express the action and expression of the character.

Close-ups shoot local details of the characters, which are used to highlight subtle expressions, convey the complex inner activities of the characters, and bring strong visual feelings to people.

4. Mirror transmission

Mirror movement refers to lens movement, such as the simplest basic push mirror, pull mirror, shake mirror and move mirror. When shooting a video, the picture effect can be more expressive by moving the lens.

Second, edit the video

1, video clip

In order to ensure enough content, we will shoot a lot of material in the early stage, but we also produce a lot of useless content, and the shots are scattered. Therefore, through a series of editing operations, we need to dig out useful content from the shot video material, combine the selected shots in a certain logical order, and clarify the content to be expressed.

2. Use music to control the rhythm of editing.

Music can make videos more infectious. If you need music to control the rhythm of the clip, you can add music to the video at the beginning of the clip.

After adding music, select the added music in the "Please select the added audio" drop-down box in the lower left corner of the timeline panel, bring up the audio waveform chart, and visually check the volume or drums. In this way, you can match the video pictures according to the emotional changes in music, or switch pictures at the drums according to the rhythm of music, so as to achieve the card effect.

Step 3 Apply the transition

When shooting a video, it is usually accompanied by the change of the scene. The role of transition special effects is to make the pictures of different scenes transition naturally.

Step 4 add subtitles

In a video, there are many application scenarios of subtitles, such as opening subtitles, dialogue subtitles, commentary subtitles, narration subtitles, subtitles indicating time and place or explaining story background, and so on.
