How to Use Short Videos for Brand Marketing — Medium

How to Use Short Videos for Brand Marketing — Medium | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it
Without ever getting into YouTube, you can do short videos on several social media sites. On Vine, they last six seconds, Instagram they are 15 seconds, and on Google+, LinkedIn, and Facebook the videos can be as long as 2–3 minutes. Once videos are created, they can also be pinned on Pinterest.


You don’t need expensive camera equipment, though it will add to the quality if you do use something different than you smartphone camera. It should do a decent job until you have the funds to invest in something better. Short videos are like a dessert or snack, just enough to satisfy and not so much that in the middle you’ve had enough and are trying to figure out how to end it sooner rather than later. And getting the story or information visually is almost always preferred to reading about it.
