English term or phrase: "pad your shots"
It's a simple text with tips for people who want to make short movies with a home camera

"Remember that you're shooting for the edit. Get a wide variety of shots and keep them short and concise. But also make sure you pad your shots for a few seconds before the action starts and after it's over to give you some flexibility in your editing."
