5 tips to produce a story at home to keep safe from #coronavirus

#1 Speak on the phone with the person the story is about.
*Identify key parts of the speech
*Ask him/her to film the soundbites with the phone following instructions (below) or record the interview on the laptop

Ask him/her to follow these basic #mojo instructions:

*Film landscape (#TV)
*If he/she is with someone, ask the other person to film him/her
*Keep the phone still or place it somewhere to avoid shaking
*Clean the lense before filming
*FILM LANDSCAPE Telling once is not enough

Ask to film around 4 to 6 clips in 2 sequences, including at least:

*General view of the place with the action taking place
*Close-up of activity
*Clope-up of object of person important to the story
*Repeat (if possible) doing with another activity

Guide the person through the filming. Ask to send the clips inmediately to complete, correct or improve them.
People tend to get truly involved, mostover these days
This example is from a story shot by the manager of a charity food service for @asturiassemanal with our guidance

Always keep control of the story. Social media is crowded with videos made by others but... do your journalistic work. Research and check the story, personalize the storytelling and edit the video yourself. From home may not be the best option but now it can be the only one #mojo
