Eight Ways to MAKE MONEY Using Your Video Camera!
Now that video cameras are seriously dropping in price, it is a great time to be looking into earning extra money. Taking videos offers many opportunities to make extra income. I have some ideas and suggestions below that can possibly turn your camcorder into a money-making tool for you.
Take videos of special events.
Everyone wants to remember special events such as birthday, wedding, sports events, piano recital, graduation, parties and many other events. Take short and important video clips of the event, then put them together to make a nice & memorable video.
Offer your services to make video gifts.
Think of something unique that will make your services stand out from the rest. For example, you could do a video interview of a husband who wants to give a surprise gift to his wife. In the interview ask questions such as how he fell in love with his wife, what is the best thing he loves about her, etc. Any woman who receives this gift from her husband will be very happy. These are simple videos and do not need to take a long time to make. This kind of business is easy to start, you can even volunteer in the beginning to let people know about your business. Its fun, and at the same time youre making lots of people happy!
Offer your services to make video letters.
Similar to above, but instead of interviewing a person, you take a video of the person talking and saying a greeting. Its like a personal video greeting card. You can then edit the video greetings by adding different effects on it. Then as part of your service you can wrap the CD or DVD ala greeting card style and mail it. You can be as creative as you want. Birthday, Christmas, Valentines, Anniversaries are great opportunities to make video letters. Start out with friends and family, and by word of mouth your business will grow.
Make your own how-to videos and tutorials.
There are many websites that let you upload your own how-to videos for free. There are some sites that you let you earn money through revenue sharing. Examples are Triond, Bukisa, Associated Content, etc.
Partner with friends.
If you like the idea of creating how-to videos but prefer other people to do the actual tutorial, this can be possibly done too! If you know of friends who specialize in a certain field, why not team up with them to make video tutorials and split the earnings? For example, maybe you have a friend who is an expert at doing scrapbooking or cooking. You can offer to take the step-by-step videos and do all the back-end work to make the video nice and presentable. You can either charge for your services, or split the earnings after you sell them. You can sell the DVDs on eBay or Craigslist. The internet offers lots of opportunities to upload videos and earn money too. I think this is another good idea to earn extra income using your video camera. It doesnt hurt to try it out!
Teach others how to make neat home videos.
If you know how to edit videos, add effects, background music, and do all sorts of fun things, you can use this talent to earn some extra money. Its like being a video tutor. There are many people who would like to learn how to quickly manipulate short video clips and turn them into nice home videos. But it is very time consuming to read books, search online and learn by trial and error. Its much easier to learn something when you have a tutor beside you, right? If you already own a camcorder, then theres no cost to start this video tutor business. Your biggest investment will be your time, and you will reap the rewards if you put your heart into it.
Take inventories of household belongings.
This is another tip on how to make money with your videocam. Offer to take videos of household inventory for insurance purposes. This is a task that many people do not put on their priority list, so it means there are many potential customers for you!
Share your success!
Teach people how to make money with a video camera!
Once you have succeeded on any of the above video business ideas, help other people succeed too! And at the same time earn some more additional income. How to earn this passive income? Videotape yourself talking and explaining how you earned money, and share your success story. Make your title eye-catching, like How I Earned Money With My Video Camera From Home.
