Creating videos can be a work-intensive process – especially when you’re doing everything from scratch.
But it doesn’t have to take eons to come up with a well-rounded video, and that’s what Andy Owen, the Social Engagement and Video Manager at TechSmith, discusses in this episode of The Visual Lounge.
