Run your weekly shoot day from this list, start to finish: permissions and the gym before the shoot, framing and sound during it, then editing and publishing. You're filming while the gym is open, so the most valuable thing this list does is protect your members' rights and the flow of classes.

Before the shoot: plan and permissions

10 items
  • Each of the 6 to 10 videos has a topic, hook, call to action, and goal (new members, education, or trust) on one page.
  • The shoot falls in the gym's quietest hour, doesn't overlap with classes or peak times, and the front desk knew ahead of time.
  • Team members and trainers who'll be on camera agreed in advance, and you talked through what they'd wear and which move they'd demonstrate.
