About 3 months ago I did a review of TubeMogul Destinations, a no-cost service that converts your videos into web-ready formats and delivers them wherever you want. However, at the time Destinations didn't allow you to adjust the quality of your video conversions and didn't support Amazon S3. Now they do. And in this video, I show you how it works.
Normal video is wider than it is tall. But with tall screen or portrait video, the video is very tall and thin. It's a format that can be very effective both for marketing and certain types of demonstrations. And in this video, I show you step by step how to create tall screen video.
Testimonials are an important part of marketing as they provide social proof. However, written testimonials have lost much of their punch these days. On the other hand, video testimonials can be very powerful. The problem is it can be tough to get them from your customers. But in this video I share a simple trick to solve this.
A few days ago YouTube released a new online video editor. How does it work and what can you do with it? I show you in this video. Resources YouTube Online Video Editor
Why are some people...with no prior experience...successful with web video while others fail? Over the years I've identified 3 key traits as to why this happens. And here they are.
In this video I review the Blue Yeti, a microphone that not only records outstanding audio from your computer, but during video chats and Skype video calls too. In fact, about the only thing more impressive than it's performance, is it's price. Resources Blue Yeti Microphone
If you're shooting video outdoors, in the sun, it's often very difficult to see anything in your camera's viewfinder. In this video I share a very quick and easy solution...a do-it-yourself, sun-blocking hood for your camera's viewfinder.
You shoot a video only to find out there's annoying background noise in it. You want to fix it, but how? In this video, I share a new, simple and inexpensive solution. Resources: iZotope Music and Speech Cleaner
When it comes to using green screens with video, most people think in terms of the TV weather person, where they stand in front of a big green screen and replace the entire background with something else. But there's another technique that can be far simpler and even more effective. I share the technique in this video.
I get asked every day what equipment I use to make web videos. So in this video, I share the equipment I'm currently using to create the videos you watch.
One of the easiest ways to communicate through video is Skype. But what if you want to record your video calls on Skype, for example if you're interviewing someone? Well, I share a very easy and flexible solution in this video. Resources Replay Telecorder for Skype
Last week Tubemogul introduced a service called Destinations, which promised that you could give them any video, they would convert it so it's web ready and then distribute that video anywhere you want...at no cost. But there's been some misinformation passed around about Tubemogul Destinations and it turns out their "from anywhere to anywhere" video distribution claim isn't entirely true. So here are the facts you need to know about how this new service works.
As video cameras get smaller and smaller, the footage from them often ends up shaky. The simplest and best solution is to use a tripod with your camera. But what if you have existing footage that you need to use and it's a little shaky? There are a few software solutions available and in this video I review one of them; Stabilizer from NewBlueFX. It's not a miracle worker and is best used for video with just a minor amount of shake. But if you don't have time to re-shoot your footage using a tripod, it can help.

In this video I review the new Canon Rebel T2i, a camera that shoots pro-quality still photos and pro-quality video. And when it comes to video, it's on par with cameras that cost 5 times as much. Resources Canon Rebel T2i * Extra Note - If you want to see a really long video where professional filmmakers compare DSLR cameras like the T2i, head to head with each other and with Hollywood film cameras (while debating every aspect of the footage they produce), click here.
In this video I answer 5 of the most frequently asked questions I receive...from streaming live video, to making videos clickable, to properly sizing web video and more.
