So I just posted something regarding information taking on a graphical form. This reminded me of a recent Youtube video that I watched. It is about coffee, so I hope you enjoy it.

Is basically a narration and animation of graphics. Similar to what I have stated in my blog regarding info graphics – simplifying information. It is important for bloggers and online marketing pros to understand this. So for those who sees this blog – please make your next blog easier to read with pictures and videos. So my tips for a good marketing/info video on YouTube:

1) Strike a balance between animation and static graphics – videos does not need to have amazing animation. pictures and appropriate transitions work wonders.

2) Use background music – always good to set the mood

3) KISS – aka keep it short and simple. time is important, that’s why there are simplified infographics and videos. too much information just scares the audience away or makes it harder to keep them interested

4) use tones when there are narrations – whenever I hear monotones, my first reaction is to turn away.

These are my personal thoughts on youtube videos. Add to this if you’re up for it ^^

here is a good example:
