You can use whatever
video gear you have to share experiences and expand relationships, but it's best to use it in such a way that it makes it easy for your audience to receive
the information you are giving.
What you should be aiming toward is helping the viewer get involved and
continue listening to your message.
For example, if you
use a cell phone or camera (using the built in microphone) to make a video, one
thing to keep in mind is that the microphone is only able to clearly pickup
what is loudest, closest to it. In order to get audio that easy to listen to,
there are a few basic things you should be doing.
Find the quietest
place possible to record and get very close to the person who is talking. If there is any other sound in the
environment it will be distracting and can make it very hard to understand what
is being said.
Remember that many
of the people who are going to view your video are most likely not willing to
work hard to get your message. Make
it easy for them to hear it and they’ll thank you with their time and attention.
