Video Information

Videos are a powerful tool for conveying information, but they must meet certain standards to be effective. Here are some guidelines to optimize your audiovisual content

  • Make sure the narration is at an appropriate pace, avoiding speaking too fast.
  • Don’t use effects like slow or fast motion that could hinder comprehension.
  • If using a voiceover, make sure it matches perfectly with what is shown on screen.
  • Avoid overly dark or light screens that make it difficult to view the content.
  • Always use high-quality video and sound to ensure a good viewing and listening experience.
  • Ensure sound and fullscreen buttons are easily visible and accessible.
  • Informative videos should last no longer than 20 to 30 minutes to avoid overwhelming viewers.
  • Clearly explain any changes in the recording location to avoid confusion.
  • Use easy-to-read subtitles, and offer the option to turn them off if needed.
  • Use simple language in audio descriptions and allow the option to disable them.
