16:07Inside Paris’ Craziest Tiny Apartments
Save referenceScale & Specificity
Shot from above, the whole home fits in one frame, bed, toilet and all, with Lucile in the middle. So you see exactly how small 'tiny' is. 'People live here?' says what you're already thinking.
'Craziest' promises the extreme end, not just small apartments, and 'Inside' offers the nosy look around that viewers can't get any other way.
The camera held high with a wide lens takes in wall to wall, and Lucile's spread hands turn the text into a what-can-you-do shrug.
When your subject is surprisingly small, tight or cramped, shoot it from above with a wide lens so the whole thing fits in one frame. Put the viewer's reaction in the thumbnail as a short question.
Fit the whole space in one shot, and voice their disbelief.
Apply this pattern to your next video.
Bring the reference into a packaging brief, then decide what your title and thumbnail should each communicate.
