I'm not going to this guy's energy right
now what's up everyone I'm Aaron I'm
mark and we're gonna share with you a
couple of video production tips we've
learned here by working at the future
this video is brought to you by Cobra
FRS USA how do we tip take one hey Aaron
can you go grab the batteries rookie
mistake is to not keep yourself
organized
for example batteries you got one chance
to get this shot and I'm scrambling to
find a battery that works very not pro
so what I do is these batteries are
charged these batteries are not charged
so when I'm done shooting I just take
the battery out it's a dead battery and
I just throw it anywhere and that's not
in that bag and that way I know that if
they're in this bag they're charged it's
super simple memory cards if you're like
us and you shoot a lot of video you
might have run into issues when you
don't know what the heck is on these
cards so in this next tip Aaron's gonna
show a system that helps us understand
what is on it so you can need a notebook
a pen and some of that cheap scotch tape
let's say I'm out shooting boom boom
boom cards full open up my notebook with
this card in here little piece of tape
boom mark and Aaron shooting video
camera a got a lavalier yeah that's
another helpful tip identifying what
audio is on there different knobs
different mics different talents three
days later when I want to edit I just
open up to the page oh what's on this
card Oh mark and Aaron shooting this is
a camera and it has our lavalier audio
on it and now I know what to call the
folder what to name it now I'm super
organized so the key to running a tight
production is communication and that can
be tough if you're on other sides of the
studio or you're trying to direct
somebody from a distance okay are you
ready walk over to me but just be
over-the-top happy like bouncing around
action perfect doing great give me a
jump cover the camera
perfect here at the future we use these
Cobra chat tag walkie-talkies
stay in touch 200 and be hey Mark can
you bring me a lavalier sure I got it
are you getting any levels testing one
two three
yep coming in loud and clear so I'm
running around a lot setting up lights
setting up shoots and sometimes Chris
needs to talk to me but I'm not in the
office so what I do is I slide one of
these right onto his desk with a little
sticky note so that he knows if he needs
to talk to me he just picks up the
walkie-talkie and goes Aaron let me know
when you're done with that shoot I need
to talk to you about the Edit yeah I'm
working on it
they're lightweight wearable and they
have an 8 mile range these are fully
functioning walkie-talkies and they pair
with other walkie-talkies on the market
there's like two kinds of V rolls the
way I look at it there's establishing so
kind of paint a picture of where we are
and then there's transition action V
roll which is great for moving from one
thing to the next I've seen Aaron do a
lot of weird but really cool stuff when
he's shooting b-roll a lot of times
people have all these quirky little
ticks they dude I've noticed catching
these little sort of moments will make
for a really interesting bureau shoot
what nobody else is shooting or shoot it
like no one else is shooting

this guy we know Spencer's came up with
this pretty ingenious low-budget way of
getting high quality audio you could use
your mobile phone and your headset that
comes with the microphone and the
microphone on these works quite well as
long as this place very close to your
mouth I'm actually using this right now
and the audio that you've been listening
to is recorded with the DIY love leer so
here's what you do
pull up your voice memos app on your
phone you just hit record all right now
let's recap everything that we just
talked about first and foremost be
organized you don't have to follow our
crazy system but use something that
works for you next clear communication
it's important in any relationship but
especially in production be direct and
be nice about it make the best of b-roll
it's not the most interesting thing to
shoot but it makes all the difference
when you're editing and lastly don't let
your budget hold you back if you can't
afford an expensive lavalier just make
your own all right guys thank you for
