Video Testimonials & Before and After Photos - Best Practices


How To Shoot Video

For best results, please shoot video with your phone vertically in portrait mode. This is most beneficial for social media.

  • 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.
