Video Testimonials & Before and After Photos - Best Practices
How To Shoot Video
Keep it steady. If you don’t have a steady hand, try popping your phone up against a wall or with a popsocket.
Check your lighting. To avoid dark images, the light source should come from behind the camera, not from behind the video subject.
Have questions ready. Even the most confident person may not know where to start with their testimonial. Have a few questions ready to get them going.
For example: Why did you decide to commit to implants or Invisalign? What was your life like before your treatment? How has your life changed since treatment was completed?Keep it short. The video doesn’t need to go into details about the procedure, it simply needs to convey how a given treatment improved the life of a patient. If your video subject is loquacious, there is no need to interrupt. We can always clean up the content with some editing.
