Izzy Video 097 – Better Family Videos
New to Izzy Video? A few things you should know: I created this site to be a resource to help you get started and develop your skills in shooting video. I've posted more than 100 video tutorials on how to shoot and edit video. Several are free downloads, and I consistently release new tutorials every month. You'll notice that many videos are available to members only.
Finally, I recommend you subscribe to my RSS feed, or the newsletter (the form is in the sidebar) to make sure you get new videos as they're released. Thanks for visiting!

Many people have asked me how to get better video at family events and outings. This is an interesting question, because you usually don’t have all the tools you might normally have when shooting video. For example, it’s not very likely that you would set up three-point lighting on a camping trip! Without all the tools, and without a controlled studio, how do you shoot great video?
This Izzy Video tutorial covers three keys to getting better family video. (I really like this episode; it’s one of my favorites so far!)

Excellent video, Izzy — and great HD footage. Love the slow-motion!

Hey thanks, Stephen!
I had a lot of fun making this video, both shooting the original footage up in the mountains, and also assembling the tutorial itself.
I’ve got a couple more great ideas for the near future, so I’m excited to get those going as well…
Thanks for watching!
