For best results, use a tripod with a tilting head to achieve precise angles.

Create a bokeh effect by shooting with a wide aperture to produce beautiful, out-of-focus background lights.
For best results, use a lens with a fast aperture, such as f/1.4 or f/1.8.
Cinematography

Audience Engagement
Leverage User-Generated Content (UGC)
Encourage your audience to create videos featuring your brand, and integrate this user-generated content into your campaigns for authenticity and broader reach.
Use tools like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube to promote UGC, and use platforms like TINT to curate and display user content.
Editing
A/B Test Thumbnails and Titles
Experiment with different thumbnails and titles, then A/B test them to see which generates higher click-through rates and engagement.
For best results, use platforms like YouTube’s A/B testing feature or TubeBuddy to compare and analyze thumbnail and title performance.
Storytelling
Behind-the-Scenes Footage
Show behind-the-scenes footage of your organization in action to build transparency and trust with potential donors.
For best results, use handheld or gimbal shots to capture authentic, real-time interactions.
