There are many opportunities to make video in classrooms, which can be teacher or student created. Thinking through videography as a director of a movie, commercial, news show, or any other event that broadcasts can add an engaging dimension to instruction. Teachers often incorporate video making into their instruction to document interviews with students, have students role‐play parts of a story, or to have students share their own stories. Using various components, teachers can make homemade video look much more professional. To begin with, the goals of the video and instruction should be outlined, which would include the audience. Sound should also be considered, as that can make a video much more interesting to watch. Other areas to consider are angles, rules of third, cuts, and lighting. Creating video that students, teachers, and families enjoy watching or learning from can be a beneficial way to make lasting instruction.
