Do You Preplan and PreFilm your videos?

I have a "series" of scripted stuff that I plan for long periods of time. The long periods are because I'm lazy. On top of that, I have several video ideas that I keep a list of so that I can eventually hit em all. Short answer: yes.
 
failing to plan is planning to fail :) For my art videos I normally sketch ideas out first, then quickly paint it out a few times then finally record me painting it
 
Yes your answer is perfectly normal! Only an idiot would turn on the camera with no plan and upload it to YouTube. While it's cool to catch that unexpected moment it is very rare and the best videos have a script and are thought out

I have a list of about 75 ideas and when I finish the last video I use one from the list. I write it out 2-3 times and while I'm doing that I picture how ill film it and how it sounds in my head. Then I record and edit it down and throw out parts I don't like
