Rise and Shine will not sell the video or give the rights to it to another entity without your permission.  

Tips for filming a successful video: 

We hope these videos will be candid conversations with Rise and Shine staff, families, and our community. No preparation or fancy camera setups are necessary! Below are a few tips to help make a great video. 

• Place your camera or phone at eye level so you are looking into it directly. Propping the camera or phone up on books may be helpful. If you are recording on a phone, place it on a stable surface (don’t hold it in your hand!)  
• Ideally, choose a quiet space with natural light. The best lighting is when you are facing the light source (sitting in front of a window is usually great!) 
• Frame yourself in the center of the video, facing the camera directly. 
• If you are a parent, including your child, they can sit on your lap or reposition the camera or phone at a lower height to capture their face.
