# CONTENT CREATION TRAINING

##### The key points to capturing quality content

## COMPOSITION

#### Understanding the best way to position talent.

Engaging people through your content can be accomplished by following a few basic rules around how to frame the subject being captured. The areas we will be focusing on for composition are the following: shot scaling and the rule of thirds for subject placement.

#### Shot Scaling

## CAPTURING to engage

#### Multiple angles allow for more flexibility & engagement.

When filming or photographing content it’s important to capture the action from multiple angles. This allows people to establish context from wider angles while using close-up details to educate viewers with important information. Below you'll find examples of how this can be done in both an interview and b-roll setting.

## Showing your subject in the best light

#### **Recommendations**

Indoors: Use windows indoors to your advantage. This can be great when placed behind a camera or next to it. Avoid placing it behind the subject or in the frame, this often throws off the exposure and is distracting to viewers.

Outdoors: Similar to inside, avoid putting the sun directly behind the subject you are capturing. Place the sun behind the camera or to one of the sides.

## Producing good audio

 

#### **Recommendations**

- Avoid recording audio by air handling units or any machines with loud noises when possible.
- Be aware of wind when capturing important talking content. If needed record talking content indoors for good clarity.
- Proximity helps with clarity and quality. Getting a microphone closer to some talking helps with capturing good content.
- We recommend purchasing a plug-in mic to help increase quality.
