When presented with the task of creating a training video for your company product or safety procedures there are five useful tips you’ll need to know to ensure the best results when starting your video planning.

1.     Start with a clear objective for your video.
2.     What is the purpose of the video; who will is serve?
3.     What will the video teach/what will the audience learn?
4.     In what setting will the video be viewed? (On-line, in a training room with others via DVD, on demand, etc.)
5.     What happens after the video is over? Will there be need for a link to additional information or a contact person?

Whether you are creating the video yourself, or hiring a professional agency, make sure you take these five tips into consideration before outlining your video script.

If you are going to create your own video make sure you have a good video camera that will allow the use of an external lavalier microphone. Quality picture and sound are essential to the viewing experience and can drastically affect how your message is perceived.

The editing program you select will need to have the capabilities to digitize and edit your footage as well as export the file to a DVD or streaming video file for playing on a computer or uploading to a streaming video server.

Should you choose to hire a professional video agency, these five tips will help the pro’s start on the right path to creating and executing your video project.

  3. When creating training videos, it is important that you know your audience. From there, you could start making an effective video because you know who you’re talking to. It is important that you know your audience, so you could avoid using jargon which your audience might not be able to understand. And it is easier to conceptualize a theme and a topic that way.

  4. I do video production in Boston MA and have done a few training videos for clients in the area. Training videos, if done for customer support should most likely be done by a professional. Though if it is done for internal use, then a video production specialist probably isnt needed.
