HOW TO SHOOT YOUR VIRTUAL VIDEO

​

You will need:

  1. something to playback (computer, tablet, or phone) AND 

  2. something to record (computer, tablet, or phone).

  3. headphones

  4. your music

 

* NOTE:  if you use a computer you may be able to use the same device to playback and record. (Quicktime for mac and Camera for PC)

 

 

Set your recording device up with a shot that looks something like THESE below.  We want to see your FACE but we want to SEE YOU PLAYING YOUR INSTRUMENT. Some may need a more full body shot than others.  The SOLID BACKGROUNDS look better on the big screen.  If you need to come up to the church to record, we have a space set up for you.  Please contact James and we will set a time for you to be here.  jcoe@cfbc.org.

​

* Note: pay attention to your lighting. you want more light in front of you than behind you. You might want to face a window for natural light.
