018 Audio for Training Videos

Published: Dec. 7, 2018, 9:31 p.m.

Video is BIG in L&D.
\n
\nBut I don't have to tell YOU that.
\n
\nAll you have to do is think about the last time you visited YouTube and you'll realize how engaging and effective video content can be when done well.
\n
\nOr how ineffective it can be when done poorly.
\n
\nSpecifically, I'm talking about poor audio quality.
\n
\nKnowing how effective video can be for training, I wanted to discuss how you can get started taking steps to improve your audio quality.
\n
\nWith how great cameras are getting on phones these days, in my opinion, audio quality is the low-hanging fruit when it comes to improving the effectiveness of your training videos.
\n
\nThings covered include:
\n
\n \t* A short rant about audio in videos
\n \t* Camera Audio
\n \t* Mic Solutions - Upsides and Downsides
