    Great video.
    I try to use as much B-roll to tell the story. I use A-roll much like the narration for the video.
    What I sometimes say is that if I mute the audio, the B-roll will tell the story. That works very well.
    Also, when I go out for a _"gig",_ I tend to shoot the interviews first. I listen to what they say to shoot those things they talk about. This way I know exactly what to shoot as B-roll footage. Of course it helps a lot when you know what the people in front of the camera will talk about. But in many cases I don't have the luxury to have that much time.

    Thank you so much Dovey for your clear explanation. Now, I can distinguish between A-Roll and B-Roll. 3 Tips for Awesome B-Roll. 1. Get Smooth Shots - Gimbal, 2. Shoot Shallow Depth of Field (Throw the backgound out of focus) - Wider open aperture lenses 35, 50, 85. 3. Slow Motion Shots - 120 fps recommended

    Finally somebody took care. As I saw over YT ppl thought B-roll was just any footage... they just like the term. Without bothering to look at the definition. Thanks!
    You can produce your project with A-roll footage alone: it is the primary footage. B-roll is supplemental footage or alternative footage. To further distinguish between the two types of footage, think of A-roll as telling, and B-roll as showing, or narration, and illustration.

  • @snowbeach11

    A Roll like what you're doing now talking to us & the B Roll is like showing things or showing background footage.
    Stock footage that's like your bank saving minus the interest or zero or without interest. It's like your pandoras box. Your own treasure. Learning every time w you Jeven. You're a great professor w gadgets & you tubing. You're doing it w passion you just want to help. Sharing is caring. 👍

      While this definition is nice, it can be an over simplification. Like cutting to a close up of a cellphone you are reviewing while you are reviewing it and away from your "A' may not feel like "Background" to a layman. As these would be very close intensional shots of small object. While on some level what you say is technically true, calling B Roll "background" shots could make some people think it's always like in the world of establishing shots or landscapes. When enhancement close ups (such as cutting to a close up if a camera you are reviewing) is also operating as B Roll.
