No Hologram? Do Video!

By TJ MacDonald |

Not everyone has the resources to do a Star Trek trick and beam into a distant location as a walking-talking hologram that’s life-size, full-colour, three-dimensional version of themselves.

When Prince Charles addressed the World Future Energy Summit (as a hologram), he suggested a substitute. Globe trotting business people were challenged to make more use of teleconferencing or video-conferences.

If you don’t need the ‘live’ interaction of conferencing, then ‘beaming’ in one-way as a video-stream is an easier, low cost option.

With all the social-media sites like YouTube happily hosting video for you, your distribution costs can be ZERO! Not a cent!

Plus there’s a swag of production tools available for next-to-nothing (even free) that continue your cost savings. The embedded YouTube video above is one quick example of idea-to-broadcast in no-time flat.

When having your message up and out their is more important than agonising over production values, then do-it-youself video broadcasting is worth a shot.

There are however, situations when you should NEVER use free public services. And tons of tips to know when you do.

That’s just one of the reasons I’ve been asked to co-ordinate a practical learning workshop to:

help build digital leverage into the expertise of people who
educate, train or coach others as part of their business.
