Video Storytelling Projects: A DIY Guide to Shooting, Editing and Producing Amazing Video Stories on the Go (Voices That Matter)

Part handbook, part classroom this book has everything you need to make your story a reality.

Nowadays, telling a story through video is a necessity. Video has become the new printed word. Creators must be able to craft video narratives using one of the most powerful tools available―the smartphone.

In Video Storytelling Projects, award-winning content creator RC Concepcion shows you how to combine the timeless principles of storytelling with the latest technology. You'll identify the right gear you need in your bag, the best techniques you need in your notebook, and the precise skills you need to make, edit, and share your creation.

The book is broken into four parts:

1. The essence of a story, from ideation to structure and dialog
2. The gear and techniques you need in your pocket
3. How to assemble a story using Adobe Premiere Pro
4. Three practice projects that guide you on how to put it all together
