Even out-takes can teach you something...

I wanted to talk about Video today, and then the thought came to me... When I was recording the videos to share at the beginning of this week, I did a really good first take, only to be interrupted when I was in flow... You will notice that the video comes to an abrupt end...

As I watched it back this morning, I noted how my energy level was higher than in the video I eventually shared and yet I also was reminded this week of what a difference using different ways of communicating the same message can make. Using Video, Audio, text.... will reach out to different people.

The out-take still had value, albeit the ending needs explaining or editing into another piece to enable it to continue.

So many of you have been kind enough to say that you now understand more about the thinking behind My Digital Village and the way the High Street works.

I hope that this "Out-take" adds to that for those of you who did not see Monday's video... Do go back and watch the complete film if you have missed it.

And I wanted to encourage those of you who are thinking about using video. Do it! There is a place for capturing and sharing your thoughts. There is also such an opportunity for creating powerful story based video and I am thrilled to have the team at Sonderseen to work with helping my connections create some fantastic professional footage.

SO.... If you make a mistake (Create an out-take) Give it a few days and look at it again, are there ways of using it to benefit from the effort of creating it.

Lets talk, whether you want to talk about My Digital Village or Video I am always keen to explore different ways of providing value. To my mind it's not mixed messages, it is simply offering my network, my village access to the gifts and skills I have been blessed with.

Great post Jay, content consumption depends on so many variables (time, location, age, preference). That's why delivering it on different platforms and in different ways is crucial. The bits we cut can be chopped up and used as snippets. Reusing content that you have already will save you on a lot of time and energy to constantly coming up with new and fresh angles.
