Sydni didn’t need a lot—just her phone. But she met so many amazing people from her group, she didn’t want any other accessories. That’s the spirit.

Camille took it day by day. She paired her favorite songs with her favorite views and always kept it authentic and 100% real.


So that’s what’s possible. There’s a lot to see, and even more to record. So here’s how to get the most out of it.

Keep it simple

Don’t worry too much about editing or trying to make it perfect. Just keep it authentic.

Find your light

Lots of light is super important, so keep that in mind. Natural is best, but you can use your flashlight or bring an external light.

Stay still

No one likes shaky footage. Look for a flat surface to balance your phone on if you don’t have a tripod.

It’s all about the angles

Get creative. Cut from one angle to another, or try making a continuous video by filming the same shots in every place.

Speaking of shots…

Do your research and make a shot list so you’re not scrambling at the last second.

Don’t forget about trends, whatever that means to you—music, a day in the life, or whatever you’re into.

And the most important tip of all:

HAVE FUN!

Be yourself. Explore. See new things. Make new friends. Bring it all into your content. You’re about to see some amazing things, meet some really cool people, and have the adventure of a lifetime.
