Writing for a visual medium

Honestly, when editing together the videos, it wasn't that much of a leap from writing an article. Maybe it's just the way I think, but arranging the elements of a story together, no matter what the medium, still requires a focus, a theme, some sense of where the story is going and possibly an angle. Of course, there's an extra dimension when you add images and/or sound, extra things you can do to enhance the story, plus learning about accepted practices such as framing shots, varying close-ups with medium shots, etc. Sometimes the voice of the "narrator" can cease altogether to let the images speak for themselves. Ultimately, though, there's always a mindset of "statement-quote-statement-quote," or more roughly, "statement-proof-statement-proof."
