Ambassador Video Guidelines

Flow Star Tutorial Video Parameters

1. Filming Orientation & Quality
  • Horizontal (landscape) please see Horizontal Filming Template at the bottom for creating a video that crops well to both Horizontal and Vertical orientation.
  • Use at least 1080p (HD) — higher if possible (4K looks great, but not required).
  • Keep the lens clean and stable (tripod or prop the phone if possible).
2. Lighting & Background
  • Film in good lighting (outdoor daylight or well-lit indoor space).
  • Avoid backlighting (don’t stand with a bright window or sun directly behind you).
  • Choose a clean/simple background so the Flow Star design pops.
3. Framing & Distance
  • Keep your full body + Flow Star visible in frame at all times.
  • Leave a little space above your head so nothing gets cut off.
  • Center yourself — Flow Star should be the star of the show.

4. Length

  • Keep tutorials 3 minutes max (short + digestible).

Horizontal Filming Template - Keep center of focus in the "Essential Center Square" so that the video can be cropped for Horizontal and Vertical formats.

EXAMPLES

 

 

5. Teaching Style
  • Start with a quick intro: “Hey flowmies, this is (Your Name) with First Earth, today I’ll show you how to do the [trick name]!”
  • Show the trick once at full speed.
  • Prerequisites - Let them know any tricks they might need before attempting
  • Break it down step by step slowly.
  • Repeat again at full speed.
  • Optional: add tips (“Keep your wrists loose,” “Think of drawing an infinity sign,” etc.).
  • Optional:Slow Motions breakdown
6. Audio / Voiceover
  • Clear voice if you’re talking while filming, clip on microphones are cheap and awesome!
  • If audio is noisy or if your not comfortable speaking while teaching, feel free to add a voice over or subtitles.
  • No background music (we can edit in music if needed).

7. Thumbnail Photo

  • Please include a photo that can be used when we create the preview thumbnails. 

8. Other Tips
  • Wear something fun/First Earth gear if you have it (brand rep 👕✨).
  • Use a First Earth Flow Star!
  • Use a tripod.
  • Do a practice run or two!  



👉 A good structure is:

  1. Quick intro (5–10 sec) — say the trick name, maybe a fun line.
  2. Full-speed demo (5–10 sec).
  3. Step-by-step breakdown (45–90 sec).
  4. Repeat full-speed demo to close (5–10 sec).
  5. If it goes a little longer (like 3–4 min) for more complex tricks, that’s fine, but ideally under 3 minutes keeps it easy to share across all platforms.
