Tips from http://mindymcadams.com/tojou/2008/17-video-tips-learned-on-the-fly/
SHOOT TO EDIT (in other words, always remember to turn off your camera after every shot so capturing the video and working with it will be easier).
STORY MATTERS.
“Spraying video” is not smart storytelling. (when you take a camera out and just record everything, cutting it together with voiceovers)
Video involves compressing time in pictures.
As with still photos, composition matters.
If you are going to tell a story in 90 seconds, you cannot have a huge cast of characters.
Close-ups, close-ups, close-ups.
Long shots set the scene.
Let the camera run long, before and after the shot, so that you have handles of time for editing.
You’re gonna need 10-12 shots per one minute of finished video.
Watch out for your camera reflection in windows, and for background audio such as traffic.
Don't move the camera too much.
Hold your camera steady.

Questions to ask when taking a photo or shooting video?
What story am I telling?
What/Who is the main focus of the shot?
Where do I want the focus be in the frame?
Do any objects, body parts or shadows appear cut off?
Are there any distractions in the background or foreground?
How is the subject lit?
Is the frame filled?
From what other perspectives could I capture this subject?
How am I going to hold the camera? Portrait? Landscape? Angle?
