If you'd like to learn how to make the best use of video for nonprofits, RSVP to join us on May 20th for the NetSquared DC Video for Nonprofits event. I hope to see you there.

  • Keep the audience in mind
  • Make a clear call to action
  • Shoot video with repurposing in mind
  • Think outside the box
  • Prepare a script and get some feedback
  • B-roll is important
  • Sound is critical
  • Give the viewer the right web tools
  • Host a screening
