Dear everyone who is considering making a video of yourself talking rather than just writing the *exact same words* into a text file, a blog post or a PDF:

Unless you're specifically targeting people who literally cannot read...

Please don't.

Sincerely, A Person Who Doesn't Have Literal Free Hours To Hear You Slooooowly Say Something It Would Take Me Five Seconds To Read And Also I Can Ctrl-F It

@natecull IMO, it really depends on the style of the video. If I'm watching instead of reading, I want the person I'm watching to actually use the medium rather than just stand and talk at a camera. Do some cutting and editing. Add some humour. Be funny. Be interesting. Show relevant things at relevant times. Do literally anything more than just sitting and speaking.
