Guidelines for Video

Creation - 1
Keep the length of video short (not more
than10 minutes). This is because it has
been found that shorter videos are more
engaging[1].
If the topic is too big for a single 10 min
video, split the topic into multiple videos.
Ensure during screencasting that there is
both text and audio narration. This will
make assimilation of content easier.[2]
