general information on digital video

The first thing you need to do when working with digital video is to ask yourself, why use digital video?  What can this technology do for you that other technological resources cannot?  Currently, video is used to entertain, inform and educate.  It is also used to illustrate events and ideas that otherwise seem abstract.  When used appropriately, video engages the learner.

There are also some things to consider before you embark on your digital video adventure.
