How to make a YouTube video with your iPhone

A robust online presence is more important than ever in today's business world. And one of the best ways to do this is by creating engaging videos that showcase your products or services. But if you're new to the video-making process, it can be daunting.

Don't worry. With help from Legal Growth, you can easily create professional-looking videos that will help promote your business and build your brand. This blog post will show five steps to make a YouTube video with your iPhone.


How to plan your video, what will it be about? and what is the desired audience?

Making a YouTube video with an iPhone may seem daunting initially, but planning your video and considering your desired audience will make the entire process easier. The most crucial step is to determine the content of your video; what topics or stories do you want to cover? Consider who would be interested in the subject – does it appeal strongly to a particular demographic? Knowing what emotions you hope to evoke and whom you're aiming to appeal to can help refine the focus of your video. Ensure that your content attracts attention and stays ahead of trends by researching popular topics and media that resonate with people. This, combined with exciting storytelling techniques, will enable you to create a great video and attract viewers.

How to record it, use advanced camera apps.

Choosing the right ‘gear’ to enhance your videos

You must invest in quality gear to make great-looking videos with your iPhone. Here are a few must-haves:

Lighting is critical to get excellent footage. If you're filming indoors, ensure plenty of light so your subjects don't appear dark and shadowy. Natural light is always best, so if you can film near a window, that's ideal. Consider investing in a lighting kit.

Audio is just as important as visuals when creating an engaging video. Make sure your subjects are speaking clearly and loudly enough to be heard. External microphones can help boost the audio quality of your videos.

Investing in a tripod will also help ensure steadier footage. This is especially important if you're filming solo and need to set up the camera before starting to shoot. Tripods come in all shapes and sizes, so you can find one that fits your needs and budget.

How to edit on iPhone

Editing videos on your iPhone can be a great way to ensure your YouTube video looks polished and professional.

There are several apps (like Splice) available that you can use to ensure the highest possible quality for your video. With a few simple taps, you can trim or crop your video, add keyframes, and modify many other technical details while editing your phone. You can also use colour correction, saturation adjustment and even sound adjustment, allowing your YouTube video to stand out.

Taking the time to master these tools will help turn a decent video into something truly outstanding. But if you don't have the time, like many of us don't these days, that's okay, as any of our team members can handle it and edit your videos to the best they can be.
