Sequencing : The Foundation of Video StoryTelling


Sequences compress time in a video story. If you didn't have compression, your just let with long clips that people wouldn't like to watch.
Proper sequencing gives the video editor a better way to adjust your story by using wide, medium, and tight shots.
Along with using b-roll to make your video more exciting and catch the viewers attention, instead of filming somebody walk through a door, take a video of them turning the handle, the door opening and him walking out the house, from the inside.

When you videotape or take photos you should get some footage of varies place of different angels to make everything more complex and eye catching instead of videotaping one place through the whole clip. Try ignoring the zoom, when you zoom closer and closer you lose more and more quality.
If your making a commercial video you don't want to videotape from one perspective, and have a big long clip, people would get bored so just shorten the clip by editing and taking out scenes that are unneeded.http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

For the video, their were close, far, and medium shots within the video.
People talking while changing the scene and shooting a video of balls juggles instead of having the taping the speaker the whole thing. So by making a quick adjustment and changing the scene it creates motivation and eye catching to keep the viewer interesting.
