Free Guide to Learning How to Create Web Videos

Videos are a great way to connect with your audience.  You can upload them to your website or one of the countless social media venues, and use them to distribute anything from tutorials, to testimonials, brief how-to-tips, and even products.  I’ve started using audio but have quickly realized that video is almost becoming a necessity for some businesses and services.

That’s why I was very interested when I learned about the Online Video Toolkit at www.onlinevideotoolkit.com . Jim Kukral  has prepared a free guide that tells you everything you need to know to make high-quality web videos… with relatively inexpensive equipment.

His videos are free and cover:

• What equipment to buy
• Creating a simple set that looks professional
• Lighting your room (this tip is great because some online videos are dark and difficult to see)
• How to find inexpensive and easy-to-use editing equipment
• How and where to upload your videos
• How to effectively use sound

I’m assuming that he’s offering these videos as a way to introduce people to some of his paid programs or products. However, just using his free information will get you well on your way to producing your own videos. 

Update 6/9/08:  Just to clarify,  Jim Kukral contacted me yesterday and assured me that he isn’t selling anything.
