Plan for different learning styles. You might want to include visual aids, hands-on demonstrations, screen-recordings and verbal explanations to help different people understand your message!

When interviewing, create a comfortable environment. Prepare questions in advance but be ready to ask follow-ups. Encourage the interviewee to rephrase the question in their answer for easier editing. Remember to nod silently instead of verbally agreeing to avoid interrupting the audio.

Good lighting is crucial for professional-looking videos. Natural light is often best. Watch out for shadows. If you are filming inside, you may want to use lights. Try a three-point lighting setup if possible: key light, fill light, and back light. This creates depth and eliminates harsh shadows.

# data[].attributes.body
Clear audio is as important as good visuals. For voice-overs and interviews, a USB microphone works well. Always do a sound check before recording to ensure optimal audio levels.
