reasons to think twice
• Skeptical audiences
• Videos may be seen beyond the intended audience
• Consider the ‘longtail’
• Final product will reflect your investment—time and money
• Viewership may be limited
• Can you be true to your brand?

ask yourself (and a few others):
Are they good on video? Comfortable in front of the camera?
Is it interesting? What are they saying that can’t be communicated in text?
Who are you talking to? WHY?

length matters
2 minutes is the sweet spot.
Beyond 2 minutes, focus entirely on the content. If the viewer would benefit from brevity, go short. If they'd benefit from depth, don't cut just for the sake of cutting. (3-12 minutes)

quality matters
• Good picture quality — the best you can afford
• Good audio: it must be clear
• Make graphics count, they can add meaning
• Avoid the teleprompter
• Remember mobile viewer, it won’t always be big

plan ahead, but roll with the punches
• Think about what you want to communicate and the desired actions
• Write a clear Creative Brief so your partner knows the goals (and you can remind yourself in editing)
• Establish a budget
• Be open to discoveries and opportunities along the way

Stories are visual and verbal.
Business stories communicate and connect, for a purpose.
