I often get asked about video plugins for Wordpress.  With so many available it's tough to say which one is best.  But what I can do is tell you what I personally use and recommend.  And that's what I do in this video. Resources Simple Video Embedder Simple Video Embedder Documentation

In this video I compare four popular pocket cameras...the Flip Ultra HD, the Kodak Zi8, the Creative Vado and the Canon SD 780.   But rather than debating technical aspects, I keep the comparison simple; by shooting the same footage with each camera under various lighting conditions and then viewing the results head-to head.  Which camera won?  View the video to judge for yourself.

It ranks high on the list of my most frequently received questions.  You buy a new HD video camera, you go to edit the footage, and it plays back very choppy with the video and audio out of synch.  The camera you have is most likely shooting video in the AVCHD format.  Here's what you need to know about it and how to fix these issues.

If you've ever landed on a web site where a video plays and it appears that the person in the video is magically floating on top of the page, that's a transparent video.  And in this video, I show you how to do it.

Several months ago Kodak came out with a new camera, the Zi8, that was heralded as the Flip camera killer. I've been asked countless times to review this camera, and in this video I do. Tech Notes This entire video was shot with the Zi8 in 720p, 30fps mode.  It was edited in Final Cut Pro.  No filters or color correction were added...this is raw footage off the camera.

Many people want to add clickable links to YouTube videos.  And there are several ways to do it.  But in this video, I share one of the slickest ways.  The best part?  It doesn't cost a thing. Resources PLYmedia

If you've ever clicked on a link and seen a video magically appear in the center of a web page, that's a video lightbox. Creating them has always been a bit confusing. But in this video I share a tool that makes it point-and-click simple for anyone. Resources VideoLightBox.com

We all see video ads wherever we go online.  But they are not just for the big boys.  Small business owners can run videos ads on popular web sites too, and for a lot less than you might think.  I share how in this video. Resources Jivox

Let's say you have a video or a series of videos and you want to charge people to access them online.  How exactly do you go about this and what are your options?  I provide the answers in this video. Resources CreateSpace Youreeeka

Many newer video cameras use SDHC (Flash) memory cards. But when shooting video, there are specific cards you need and it can get confusing. Plus, how do you get your video off of these cards? I cover what you need to know in this video.

As video cameras get smaller and smaller, people wonder how they can keep their cameras steady while shooting video.  The obvious choice is a tripod...but they aren't always convenient. So in this video, I show you how with just a trip to your hardware store and a few dollars, you can build your own "tripod-like" devices to keep your camera steady.

Flip-style cameras are all the rage.  They get all the press and hype.  But there's actually a group of cameras...in the same price range...that deliver a lot more bang for the buck, while shooting better video. These are point-and-shoot cameras.  And in this video, not only do I demonstrate arguably the best point-and-shoot camera for video, but I cover both the pros and cons of Flip-style and point-and-shoot cameras. Resources Canon PowerShot SD780 ELPH (shoots 1280x720 HD video, 12 megapixel photos and video files can be used in Sony Vegas or Final Cut without any issues).

The majority of videos you see on the Internet were shot with mobile devices...cell phones, point-and-shoot cameras or other hand-held devices.  And the video these devices produce is usually blurry, shaky, dark, pixelated and more. There is however a fast, easy and cheap solution to these mobile-device video woes...a solution that utilizes the same technology used by police to make grainy surveillance video viewable and fuzzy license plate photos sharp. It's called VReveal and I demonstrate exactly how it works in this video. Resources VReveal

PDF files are the standard document sharing format on the Internet.  And while you have always...to a certain extent...been able to add videos to them, it wasn't until the past year where this became truly feasible. In fact, now it's extremely simple.  How simple?  I show you in this video. Resources Adobe Acrobat Pro

Stock video footage is great...you can create entire videos with it, without even owning a camera.  But it's also very expensive. Jeff Roldan is a filmmaker who got tired of spending thousands on stock video clips, so he founded a web site to make stock video clips affordable for everyone. The result is UnlimitedStockMedia.com.  And in this video, I review the site and the stock video clips they offer.
