Bookmark these eight tips and tricks to make your videos the best they can be
Creating videos can be daunting if you have little experience.
But fear not - this article by Fruitlab shows you how to create your own videos to a standard you can be proud of.
Tips range from using transitions, such as the classic cross-dissolve, that embellish your montages, to adding captions to boost engagement and ensure your videos are accessible to all.
The article also touches on how effective branding straps can be for engaging followers with more of your content as well as making your product look more professional. It also advises to save your content often whilst you are editing, as computers cannot always be trusted to cope with the process and you can easily lose your footage.
There are plenty of free platforms that provide all the tools you need, although tools like Filmora Pro offer another dimension to the editing process if you are looking to invest.
