• Videos are good for SEO.
• Videos allow your news organization to extend its

• And yes, they make money, but more about that in a

• The best reason to shoot video, however, is that we
are storytellers in an increasingly visual world, and
video reconnects us to the reason most of us went
into journalism — to learn about the world and
communicate that to others.

32. CONCLUSION

One take-away from the Pew Study:
Online video news continues to grow in popularity
among a very desirable demographic, but is not at
present accounting for a large share of ad revenue
for news organizations.

Poynter’s Al Tompkins answers when to use video on
stories
Tompkins
champions using
video when you
can find a CCC
— a central
compelling
character — to
illustrate the
story.

and read “Aim for the Heart!”

Tompkins’ advice on framing story angles
In his “Telling
Memorable Video
Stories” series,
Tompkins lists five
motivators that
engage viewers:
• Money
• Family
• Safety
• Health
• Community
37. WHEN TO USE VIDEO
VIDEO FOR THE WEB
Tompkins’ advice on framing story angles
The idea behind
the five is to think
of fresh angles
that will interest
people who
might not be
interested in the
subject matter.
The key is to
attach it
immediately
at the top of the
story.
38. HOW TO USE VIDEO
VIDEO FOR THE WEB
Good editors like
Tompkins
encourage
establishing a
hook / finding
focus
immediately
because viewers
are fickle.
Unfocused videos
can have
clickaway rates as
high as 85%
within first 10
seconds.

39. LENGTH OF VIDEO
VIDEO FOR THE WEB
You’ve probably all heard the 2-minute max. for the
“typical” online news feature, but perhaps that’s
oversimplifying a bit.
Gretchen Frazee of WTIU (Bloomington, In. PBS affiliate):
• Their audience seeks more in-depth stories so their
longer-form stories (about 4-5 minutes long) draw the
most traffic, but that is also because they are the main
ones they segment out of their shows for YouTube.
• They have realized that videos posted directly to
Facebook typically receive many more views than if they
post just a link, but Facebook has a file size limit.
40. INTERVIEWING
“It’s not your job to make them respect you, or to
think that you’re smart, and then to walk out of
the door with nothing in your notebook... Your job
is to get them to answer questions, and to share
things with the public.”
—NPR reporter Laura Sullivan
VIDEO FOR THE WEB
41. • Always conduct a pre-interview and plenty of
research. Ask about noise / lighting at the location
and ask the person to have ready any materials
needed (e.g. scrapbooks).
• By the time you get to your shoot, you should already
know what part of the story your source is going to
explain.
VIDEO FOR THE WEB
INTERVIEWING
42. WORD/IMAGE HARMONY
In putting together a video package, you will have two
different (speaking) audio tracks that provide the
explanation of what’s going on — your VO and the a-roll
of the person.
• Remember that you don’t always have to hear the
person’s voice over the b-roll. Let natsound
contribute.
• Viewers don’t want to stare at a talking head (a-roll)
for long.
• Ask questions that describe processes and
environments so that you can then run b-
roll that matches what the person is saying.

this well:

45. VIDEO LITERACY #6:
In a traditional broadcast, what is the percentage
of the video piece that is the VO (the narrator’s voice)
versus the person being interviewed (SOTs)?
ANSWER: As lopsided as 80% VO, 20% SOTs
VIDEO FOR THE WEB
46. Using your subject’s own voice entirely is becoming
much more common, but it requires more thorough
interviewing
• You must record enough SOTs to explain
everything through that person’s eyes.
• Your interviews become more challenging, but
using only the subject’s voice makes the piece
more intimate.
• As you watch this video, consider how it uses
first-person and also bucks traditional news-
gathering conventions like timeliness and using
multiple sources
• Ryan Brady: The Polevaulter

FIRST-PERSON VO
47. • Before you even head out, write a list of b-roll musts:
1) Close ups and medium shots
2) Establishing shots
3) Close-up of hands and other cut-in shots
4) Details mentioned in pre-interviews
5) Good opening and closing shots
VIDEO FOR THE WEB
SHOOTING TIPS
48. • Look for action you can capture through
sequences, or series of shots that are edited
together:
1) Establishing shot, medium
shot, CU to set a scene
2) Interactions (a gymnast being spotted
by her coach)
3) Action and reaction (e.g. a winning
basket goes in, crowd cheers)

INNOVATION
• Several companies (JumpCam, Mixit, Peepsqueeze)
have been developing collaborative video software
where several creators can upload shots together for
live streaming.
