Hey everyone~
So one of my main problems with vlogging is that when I start editing, I suddenly think of shots that I could have added or worse: shots I actually need.
Last weekend I went to an archery lesson and was able to film heaps, but now in hindsight I realize I hardly tell my audience anything. Some things I can do with voice over, such as telling a bit about the club and the owner (who is a Youtuber as well), but other things I can't really do without proper footage, such as explaining how to actually shoot a bow. I basically have an hour of footage of me shooting a bow and about two or three times that I talk to the camera.
Anyway, my question is: How can I avoid missing shots I need? I'm pretty bad at planning out what I'm going to shoot, because I don't know the structure of the video until I start editing and often don't even know how the day will go before I start shooting. Any tips and tricks would be appreciated!
