Location Video Hunt
Give your hunters a list of physical locations to document with certain requirements necessary for their footage. For example, list the top five physical location points at your local state park and provide a list of interactions to document at these locations. These can include things like birds flying over a lake, people riding bikes and kids playing at the playground.
People Video Hunt
Develop a list of five to 10 human interactions that are common occurrences, then take your group of scavenger hunters to the local mall or park and have them gather footage recording each interaction on the list. These interactions can include a parent holding a child's hand, lovers sharing a kiss on a park bench and people feeding animals. Be sure that the hunters clarify their presence to the people they are documenting so as not to raise suspicions about their intentions.
Telling a Story Video Hunt
Objects can provide an interesting twist to the video scavenger hunt. Give each team a character object, such as a yard gnome or a stuffed animal, and give them a short plot or story-line they need to film with their character. Encourage the teams to create storyboards and map out their plans for gathering footage ahead of time to enhance the creative results.
Object Video Hunt
Create a list of objects for each team to capture on video. Be sure to include a few challenging objects and subjects that will require the teams to employ their creative thinking skills in order to find and document the object.
Action Video Hunt
Give the teams a list of actions that are likely to occur in a given location or that are associated with a sporting event and have them capture each action on the list. For example, give your team a list of possible actions that soccer players make during the course of a game, take your teams to the local sports complex on a weekend and have them capture their list of soccer actions.
