The location in which you film has a significant impact on the outcome of your video. It is important to take all of the necessary consideration to choose the ideal location for your video in order to maximize its quality. Here are a few things that you should take into consideration when you choose a location for your video.
Depth
The subject needs to be separate from the background. This is vital to create depth in the scene. If the subject is up against the background, like a wall, both the wall and the subject will be in focus and the scene will look extremely 2-dimensional. By separating the subject and the background, you create extra depth in your scene.
Sound
Microphones pick up an array of small sounds. They can capture everything from traffic outside to the buzzing of lights. Ensure that you film in a location where you are able to manage these sounds and prevent them from detracting from your video.
Relevance
Ensure that the location that you choose to film in is relevant to your video. Your location is supposed to add to the scene, not distract from the content or subject matter of the scene. If you are discussing an office setting, you shouldn’t film in a zoo. Additionally, you don’t want anything distracting happening in the background of your film.
The location has a dramatic impact on the quality of your video. Learning how to choose the ideal location will make your video look much better and more professional. To learn more about choosing the right location for your video, contact us at Robin Hood Studios today.
