B-roll

The other day, a friend told me to look up b-roll, if I wanted to take my video-making to the next level. So I did, and this is what I found...

The first thing that I did was to just look it up on Google. I went to this website, and I understood the basic concept of a b-roll, but I decided to dig deeper.

I then looked it up on wikipedia . I discovered that you use b-roll to create flashbacks and other cool effects on your videos.

I wanted to find different apps that allow you to use b-roll and the first one I found was this. This link shows the many different ways that you can use the b-roll feature on filmakr. You can change the speed, audio, and order of your video clips.

When I just use iMovie, I have to go through many steps that are unnecessary when using b-roll. This will shrink the time that it takes me to make videos, allowing me to focus on making the quality of my movies better.

I love how this website explains it. "B-roll lets you show and not just tell." This website also shows you the difference that b-roll makes in your videos.

Now it is your turn to discover b-roll for yourself.
