Words to watch and listen for in videos

~For easy-to-understand video manual production~

Point Seminar on Creating Video Manuals in Manufacturing Sites


Will be held.

 

Videos are composed of various elements such as images, movements, captions, and narration. In order to effectively use each element, it is necessary to understand their characteristics and distribute information accordingly.

On the other hand, when trying to create video manuals in the manufacturing field, there are often problems such as slow-moving captions and narration, or too much information causing blurriness.

In this workshop, experienced Technical Writers will explain how to effectively and balance the use of captions and narration, as well as important points to keep in mind. They will also touch on common concerns in production and provide examples to illustrate their explanations.

We also conduct workshops, so you can deepen your understanding with certainty.
