Here are a couple of great videos with some tips for shooting good footage. Make a point of getting close to your subject. If you are interviewing people get close enough to create a head and shoulders shot.
When working on your Day in the Life videos, do not go any longer than 10 sec per shot unless you are doing a time lapse or a sped up shot. Keep your transitions simple, probably a fade in or out. Do not walk with the camera, it usually does not look good. If you are panning with the camera, do it very slow.

REVIEW CRITERIA
Day in the Life Video: You are to video and edit a day in your life and set it to music. Likely you will need to shoot on more than one day and make it look like it was all in one day.
Keep your shots short, 3-5 sec.( maximum 10 sec) and make sure they are sequenced properly. The video should be 1-2 min in length. Make sure your shots are in focus, shot from various angles, and well composed. You should be choosing a song to put with your day in the life video. Do not forget you are trying to tell a story of your day.
