The Secret to Winning Chobots Video Contests!

Hello guys. I am Help, the main chobots video contest winner. Today I will give some tips on how to make your video perfect. I am typing with a broken arm, so this may be short.

1. ALWAYS have sound in your videos. You can get sound off of itunes, or just stick the disk in your comp and copy the music to it!

2. ALWAYS have an intro to your videos. If you have seen mine they say funny things like. "A Video by Help. Starring Help. With actor Help. Special effects by.....Help." So make sure to make it funny. Unless the video is meant to be serious.

3. Try to have credits at the end of videos. They help people understand and follow.

4. Try the pause and type technique. Pause the video. Type in your message. Then play the video and enter your message. Do NOT type while the video is recording.

5. Try to have effects in your videos. Sound effects can be found a lot of places. Video effects are harder to do.

6. Hard work is the key to making the video perfect. Try, try, and try again.


Enjoy this tutorial, and have fun!!!

Great guide!

Nice tips!

I use Camtasia Studio 10; it's a great tool for a relatively reasonable price. I also use Photoshop CS4, but not always for my videos.
