The #1 Most Important Thing re Video

By on January 27, 2010 in Making Videos

I get asked questions about making videos all the time.

What camera do I use, how do I set up the lighting, where should I shoot, where do I host the video, how do I to edit, what software should I use, etc. ….

But that’s missing the point.

There’s one thing, one huge most important thing, that must be in your video, or you are wasting your time.

To learn how to make your own videos, check out my newest video program 3 Days to Video live virtual workshop or get the free Quickstart to just learn the basics!

So what questions do you have about making videos? What has your experience been with video?

I’d love to hear from you!

    Killer message Elizabeth, couldn't agree with you more! You make the video, always. You talk about being yourself in your videos and if you're not, people can easily tell. My experience with video has been awesome! It allows you to connect deeper with your viewers then a regular blog post and to some, it's just easier to consume.

    Great video Elizabeth! People get waaaay to wrapped up in the details and forget that the most important thing is being themselves. Same is true for their websites, brochures, business cards, etc. – most businesses don't put their Personality into their Marketing!

    Funny Video! I too like making videos. I just included a video bio on one of the site I frequently visit.
    It's GREAT fun and allows you to stand out in the crowd. Cause NOT everyone likes to video themselves. Thanks for doing this! ;)
