Why Transcribing Certain Videos Come In Handy

Today marketing and advertising that used to depend upon print medium has been replaced by interactive videos that keep the viewers engaged to watching and hearing what is being said. This is a far more engaging medium and everyone without exception would prefer watching videos than reading articles, but then if the marketing video is of longer duration and runs more than 30 minutes, will people still be watching? We doubt it.

It has been seen that when training is imparted via video the comprehension of the trainees as well as viewers in other cases is much better than when the same is done through some other mode of presentation.

Whether the video is short or long one can decide only at the end of watching the entire video if it was worth it. But then generally videos which run more than 3 to 5 minutes tend to bore the viewers and will not be able to hold their attention for long. The viewer’s maximum attention span would be around 5 minutes or a little longer.

It may be a good idea to also hand out to the viewers a pdf or a presentation print out of the video that you are intending to show. Thereby the viewer is able to mark and makes notes on the same paper and go back to the video at a later point of time to refer things.

Many times viewers are not able to view the videos that you send them for sometimes they may not be able to download the file for it is too big and takes too long or some technical problem in their system might make it impossible for them to download. This defeats the purpose totally.

A viewer who has difficulty in downloading might find it much easier to go through paper print out faster and this might get him more interested in wanting to watch the video. He will then make sure he gets hold of the video somehow and watches it with an attempt to seek clarifications to the questions he has in mind after reading the print out.

You have two options on hosting your videos. One is to list your video in the video directory sites. The other option is to have SEO in text for the search engines including google still judge content according to text and place them accordingly in the SRPs.

You can be innovative and use both text and video in your file but ensure that the text is seen first. In fact you can list your files with text and videos in other directories too as video-text.
