How to Take Better Videos From Your Phone<\/p><\/div>\n

When you need to capture a quick video of a listing or area for a client, your phone may be all you have. You can still take some quality videos to share on the go and from your phone.<\/p>\n

USA Today recently featured some tips on capturing better videos from your smartphone, such as:<\/p>\n

Turn your phone sideways. <\/strong>The horizontal orientation for shooting video will allow you to get more in the shot. You\u2019ll also avoid the black bars along the side when the video is played back.<\/p>\n

Use the \u201crule of thirds.\u201d <\/strong>To make your videos look more professional, watch your framing. Break up a scene into two vertical lines and two horizontal lines. Place your subject then wherever the four lines intersect. Some smartphones actually let you place this grid on your screen.<\/p>\n

Watch your light. <\/strong>Try different angles to make sure you get the right amount of light in your focus area. Try to avoid shooting into a bright window. Some phones allow you to tap on an area in the screen that you want to focus on and the phone will then do an auto-adjust for exposure and focus.<\/p>\n

Move the phone slowly. <\/strong>To prevent blur while recording, move the phone slowly as you show off a space. Try to get closer to the object you want to focus on rather than just zooming in, which can look blurry when the video is played back.<\/p>\n

Edit. <\/strong>You can still edit a video from a smartphone by cutting, cropping, adjusting the color and brightness, adding transitions, music, narration, captions, and more. Don\u2019t just take the raw footage from a smartphone and send it on. Enhance your smartphone videos to make them look more professional either with desktop video editing software or even an editing app from your phone.<\/p>\n
