Our Top Ten Tips For Recording Your Own Videos!
We’re always looking for great videos to feature on our social media channels. Why not send us a short video featuring you and some of your friends getting ready for the Vhi Virtual Women’s Mini Marathon? You could either be filmed training for the event; sharing some of the fun ways you are fundraising, or simply talking about why your charity means so much to you.

It couldn’t be easier to record a video, and we have some simple tips to help you along the way:
Use a smartphone to record your video. (It’s easy to make, send and post!)
Film your video in landscape (horizontal)– it looks better, and it’s easier for us to add subtitles to your video that way.
Use an interesting background – for instance, film your video outside or in front of a colourful wall or backdrop. Just be wary of background noise on a windy day or from nearby traffic!
If you’re fundraising for a charity, wear your charity t-shirt so everyone can know who you’re supporting.
Check your lighting – make sure your video isn’t too dark or too bright.
Avoid using zoom as this can make your footage shaky.
Keep it simple, avoid using filters.
Send us your video.
Send us your charity’s logo, so that we can include it with your video.
And make sure to have fun!
