EditSteps
-
1Gather 2-5 friends who you know can stay dedicated to the show. Write down some great, funny, entertaining ideas, like iCarly does. Do not copy any other show because people won't enjoy it and you might be breaching the law of copyright. Get solid legal advice if you don't know what you're doing.
-
2Get a good camcorder. A handheld is good. It should be good quality. If it's not the best, that's fine too: you can use computer sites to improve lighting, effects and such.
-
3Rehearse! Go ahead and feel free, loose, and stay yourself. Do not be snobby or rude, because viewers may find that distasteful and could stop watching your show.
-
4Have a website ready to upload your shows to, and make it interesting. Choose vibrant, fun backgrounds, and have pages for special requests. Maybe someone wants to send out a special shout-out on your show for their BFF's birthday?
EditTips
- Make your setting interesting, and fun. Don't use a blanket as a backdrop. It is very unprofessional and no one would want to look at that.
- Make sure you have a whole bunch of ideas ready to go!
- Back to the setting: try to find an airy, open space to shoot, preferably not outside. If you need to do a messy experiment though, outdoors is acceptable.
- You want to make sure people can't see beds, personal belongings, or, most importantly, the address of anyone's home!
EditWarnings
- Do not give away personal information. Generally, its okay to reveal your first name. Nobody will no which "Bob" or "Tyler" or "Megan" you are.
