Hold your phone straight up when you film so the video fills the screen properly on phones. If you shoot sideways, people will see black bars or a cropped video that feels awkward to watch on Reels or Stories.

Light makes a big difference. Stand near a window or film outside when the light is soft—early morning or late afternoon works best. Indoors, use soft white lights to brighten your face without harsh shadows or color changes.
Shaky video looks unprofessional and can be hard to watch. Use a tripod, phone stand, or even lean your phone against a stable object. This helps your shots stay smooth and focused, especially when you're talking or showing something.

A messy background can take attention away from you. Choose a tidy spot, remove clutter, and avoid anything strange behind you. A clean space helps your subject stand out and makes your video look more thoughtful and clear.

Always film in the best quality your phone allows—1080p or 4K. This makes your video sharper, more detailed, and easier to edit without losing quality. It also looks better on all devices, from phones to TVs.

Even short videos need a plan. Think of what you want to show and how it should begin and end. Good planning makes your video flow better and helps you stay on topic, whether it’s funny, informative, or promotional.

Use all the vertical space your phone gives. Don’t leave too much space above or below your subject. Come closer to faces or items so they appear big and clear—this makes your video more fun and easier to watch.

Phones auto-adjust light and focus, but this can make videos look jumpy. Before you record, tap and hold on your subject to lock both. That way, the video won’t suddenly go dark or blurry when things move.

If your sound is bad, people might skip your video—even if it looks great. Use an external mic or record in a quiet room. Stay close to the mic or phone, and avoid wind, echo, or noise in the background.

Vertical videos need vertical edits. Use mobile-friendly apps like InShot or CapCut to add text, music, and effects that fit tall screens. Avoid cropping wide videos—it often cuts off important parts and looks weird.
