PHOTO/VIDEO TIPS – Additional Tips from our Development Specialists…

  • For the privacy of all participants, please DO NOT take photos/video in bedrooms, restrooms, or medical treating/dispensing areas.
  • Smiling, Activity/Action, & images that tell a story all make for good media
  • Try to get as much variety as possible (NOT a huge amount of footage/pictures taken of just one event)
  • Be aware of your subject ‐ the focus (the Important Moment) of the photo/video.
  • Be considerate and try to avoid visual embarrassments (while eating or while at swimming/waterslides)
  • Try to reduce showing a guest’s name tag, if possible (adjusting the angle of the camera can help)
  • When recording video, ALWAYS film Horizontally!
  • Keep steady, especially while zooming… use a tripod and/or hold your breath
  • Use sparingly when shooting video ‐ wide (far out) shots, zooming from far to close, and significant panning
  • Keep video in short segments (under a couple minutes)
