Notes:

  • Capture every location in a wide (locked off) and drone looking down. This will allow for a beginning or end split screen of all the locations for a nice bookend. Text/gfx/animations can play over if needed.

  • When filming, think of in-camera transitions. Example: Film someone smiling then pan or tilt FAST in camera that will connect to another shot. Think transitions at the beginning of a shot as well.

“Beats by Dre” Effect:
