We’ve read a ton of tips for Vine video creation, but these stand out in our minds as important since you are making a video with a mobile device after all. To get the best possible video:
- Use a Tripod. For obvious reasons, mobile devices notice every breath you take, so keeping it as still as possible will make your video stand out as top notch. Don’t have a tripod? Use a chair, countertop, or table as a makeshift steadier.
- Test out the time-lapse video and stop-motion capabilities. Yes, they might take some practice, but how cool is that?!
- For better audio, try earphones with a built in microphone.
- Watch it, and watch it again before posting. Remember you might not want to be the next big name film director, but your video could go viral and the whole world doesn’t need to know every detail about you. Check it for safety and privacy and then … have fun!
