First Things First: Have More Fun2m 36s
When you do the same things, day in and day out, you start to lose sight of the things you love. That’s where I come in. In the following videos you’ll learn how to reach a new level of energy in your pitch and innovate around people.
Video Killed The Radio Star...3m 49s
....and that’s a good thing. Moving images move people. Other than being in the same room as someone, video is as close as you can get to another person via digital communication, making it the most important tool in your arsenal.
Wait. What IS Video?2m 19s
Webinars, webcasts, Townhalls, that one-off video you recorded for Steve while waiting for the train because it was easier than writing an email on your phone--it's all video, and all video is communication. So let's make sure it's clear and effective.
Why? Why? Why?1m 04s
This is the question you should ask before you do anything. Why are you making this video?

I’m going to need your full attention for this: if you follow these steps, all of your communication from now on will be infinitely better.

As interesting as you are, your videos will be vastly improved by bringing your colleagues, your mentors, people who inspire you together for the camera.

When The Camera Crew Is You3m 46s
When you’re recording a video it’s more than being in the right frame of mind… you also need to get the frame right!
Cult of Personality2m 08s
The best speakers have a resonant brand. You can, too. Find what makes you special and translate that quality into a vibrant energy you’ll deliver in your video.
Try, Try, Try, And Then Try Some More1m 53s
Don’t think too far ahead: get some quick and dirty ideas rolling, start shooting, and then get feedback from your peers. You’ll be surprised how much you learn.
