Guidelines for Optimal Video Quality


  - When filming, please use a landscape orientation, not a portrait orientation. This is especially important when filming video with a smartphone

-  Use a tripod. This is especially important in close-ups

- Avoid excessive zooming. Use the optical zoom only; do not use a digital zoom

- Turn off all camera special effects

- Avoid using autofocus. Manual focus is more accurate. Keep the camera at a fixed distance from the subject

- Ensure that individuals being filmed are wearing white clothing and use of gloves. The clothing with T-shirt, jacket, ties are not allowed

- Record a few extra seconds before and after each cut or after changing the camera's position. This allows for easier editing

- Verify that the video(s) are viewable in QuickTime or Windows Media Player before uploading

-  Use plenty of diffuse light; avoid shadows
