    How to shoot great birthday videos

    Nigel Barker, professional photographer explains how to capture all the memorable moments at your kids’ birthday parties:
    • Use creative angles. Try from up high or down low using the tilt screen of the camera.
    • Shoot with objects in the foreground, like balloons, to capture the atmosphere.
    • Don't hesitate to capture little moments that bring the event to life, like kids swinging their feet under the table.
    • Think about where the action is going to take place and plan to shoot accordingly. You want to avoid filming the backs of peoples’ heads as much as possible.
    • Use available light, like when the candles are being blown out. If it is very dark, try pointing the light at a wall and not directly at faces.
    • Shoot a combination of videos and digital images.
