make it more fun by giving the actors some specific attributes instruments, toys, clothes
let the actors act freely and spontaneously but in some fixed framework

MOVEMENT - HOW TO COMPOSE MOVES
group movements
change directions and speed
repeat the same moves to create some kind of a ow and rhythm
keep the movie dynamic, let actors follow the same direction and then change it, speed up or slow down, come towards camera or away
keep in mind general composition remember to create overall impression, not only single good moments

MOVEMENT - HOW TO SET CAMERA MOVEMENT simple
Camera movement doesn’t have to be very complicated. You can just follow main character for the verse. It can follow
dynamic interesting steady
the same path in a loop. But it can also make some “unexpected” transitions between actors. It’s your choice but remember to keep camera steady and in focus, this will keep viewers engaged and make your video look more professional.
