DoingMedia on Tech in Twenty

My friends Jennifer Navarrete and Luis Sandoval asked me over to their BlogTalkRadio show to talk about How to use the Online Video Tools. It was a lot of fun.

What will you hear? Well, a lot of the same sort of thing you’ll find here at the DoingMedia blog.

Here’s a high level recap:

• Use a tripod – There’s “shaky cam” and “shaken cam”. Unless your purpose is to get your audience sick, or worse, click away, keep it steady and put it on a tripod.
• Get the best audio you can – use an external microphone. On camera microphones pick up everything within about 12 inches, then, no so much.
• Prepare – Run through a checklist, either on paper or in your head, to make sure you have everything you’ll need when you press “Record.”

Or listen to the whole thing!
