I’ve started producing GameDev tutorial videos. I’ve started a video production guide that works for me. I’m three videos in now and I try to improve it on each iteration. Here’s what I have at this point.

What’s your template look like, or do you some other planning tool?


Summary

  • Key message

Title

  • Think of keywords used when googling

  • Use google search, tube-buddy

Outline

Filming punch-list

From the outline, I’ll break down each scene and determine what A (A00) and B (B00) role shots will be needed.

  • [ ] ::A01 Intro

  • [ ] ::A02 Outro

  • [ ] ::B02 Image of device
