-As with any creative project, a detailed and organized plan can help ensure that everything runs smoothly throughout the rest of the production process. While there does not necessarily need to be a verbatim script written out beforehand, it is highly recommended that there is at least a detailed outline of the format and content of the planned video. This will be useful for the filming and editing of the video and help to ensure that everyone working on it is on the same track. +detailed and organized plan can help ensure that everything runs smoothly throughout the rest of the production process.

 In general, shorter videos tend to be more successful at holding a viewer’s attention. Videos that are two to four minutes long have the highest levels of engagement, whereas anything longer than twenty minutes tends to lose a number of viewers. As we are often making videos for a more targeted audience they will be more likely to engage in a longer video, but it is still best to keep it as short as possible while still conveying the necessary information. In general, shorter videos tend to be more successful at holding a viewer’s attention.
