no7. EX2 - TRAINING VIDEO (FOOD)

TRAINING VIDEO = any video which aims to train the viewer (a how-to video)

Topic: FOOD

Think about:

- Story Angle 
what do you want to show & tell in your video & why?
what is the focus of the info that i will present in the video?
what is my story about >> what is my 1-sentence-summary?

- Ask questions
what about food?  what kinds of food do people love?
why food? why do we all enjoy food?
where does food come from?
when is food most enjoyed?
how is food such a huge part of our lives?
who are the experts on food?
what will my target audience want to see and learn from my video?

- Do your research
what info will you need to present in your video?
how best to show/tell?
what info is important for the viewer to know?
how can i make the info more interesting and exciting?
