The footage to gather
- The opening screen
- One deliberate tap sequence
- The useful result
Give each moment a little breathing room. Get close enough to show the detail, and keep the original clips handy.
Plan a troubleshooting tutorial
Opening
Show the specific stuck state before suggesting an action.
Middle
Demonstrate the corrective steps with readable labels and a reason for each change.
Ending
Show how to verify the fix and where to seek help if it fails.
Review it for mobile apps
Use readable crops without obscuring the navigation a user must find.
Ask yourself: Does the tutorial cover the symptom it promises to address?
Watch it as if you were seeing it for the first time. If something is unclear, try a different cut or add the missing shot.
