Video production, Washington
Videos in a corporate, industrial, or similar environment serve a wide range of purposes, but they do two things especially well.

  1. Motivate or Inspire – Presenting visuals and audio that will affect attitudes or behaviors in the way you wish.
  2. Visually Demonstrate – Showing something, or some activity, or presenting some message in a way that would be hard to simply explain verbally or through text alone.

Professionalism
Amateurs in most fields are not necessarily less experienced than professionals, but to a significant degree they are more able to focus on their craft and products without taking into consideration what others may need or think.

Interviews in communications
WHY video, print, web and other communications can benefit from interviews.

Strategic communications
Some communications may be designed to simply inform - to just pass along facts or background information. While this could serve some value as content or data that may be used by audiences in some manner, most communications, through a wide range of possible media, have a more challenging goal - to go a step farther and help create change.

Instructional design in Washington DC
What is the role of information Technology within curriculum development or instructional design?  Wikipedia defines IT (Information Technology) as “the application of computers to store, study, retrieve, transmit and manipulate date or information, often in the context of a business”. As applied to curriculum development, what this means is that a learning management system (LMS) and specialized e-learning software (such as Adobe Captivate, Articulate Storyline) can provide a practical web-based learning experience.

Can clients be plugged into a mold? When does one size fit all? Probably never.
 
In the world of adult curriculum development (or really any media or communications development), clearly delineated, established processes are used by experienced teams to assure specified needs are met. Catch is, every client is so different that it is nearly impossible – or often simply not necessary – to fully or strictly apply every standard practice on all projects.

  • Budgets
  • Development Timeline
  • Available Content Resources (including Subject Matter Experts)
  • Expectations
