Video formatting requirements for The Get On TV3 Competition.

Here are some basic filming guidelines from our friends at TV3. Stick to these and your clip has a good change of being shown during the live broadcast.

• Make sure you get quite a few wide shots — everybody included — i.e. show the size of your event.
• Then make sure you film as many individuals/groups as possible doing whatever they are doing to fundraise.
• Possibly film and record a couple of sound-bites. These are short sentences from a key person that explain what you are doing. Make sure the sentences are short; 10–15 seconds no more, and make sure we can hear them clearly.
• Make sure you keep your shots steady — USE A TRIPOD — DON'T USE YOUR ZOOM.

You can film on Mini DV tape — DVD (you must finalise the disc) — or HDV Card/Disk & then transfer the footage to DVD. These are the standard formats that you need to be working with. Your footage should be a maximum of 5 minutes long in total.
