The skinny on squeezing every drop
• Think of the 1/60 rule• For every one hour of footage you shoot, you’ll keep a minute.
• So think about the other 59
• As your recording the content, think of what else you might be
able to use it for
• Then organize some of the content accordingly – pre-shoot
• Make sure as you’re recording to...
• Write down the best takes so you can use later
• Shoot still images as well as record vlog content.

Alumni events.
Tools of the trade

Social media tie-ins
• Market like a networker – what’s in it for them, not you.
• Make your content matter and make it big!
• Know who your real friends are
• A Facebook page is worth very little if all your fans are your friends and
employees.
• Say it loud, but don’t you be the one to say it!
• Find your greatest influencers and get them to speak about you.
