In the morning session, “Video as a Promotional Tool for the Independent Author,” Jordan and Bronstein will discuss why authors should consider using video as a promotional tool, available types of video content, what it takes to produce a compelling video, and how your video can be “broadcast” online and on public access TV stations.

Join the BAIPA audience for the morning presentation and find out:

* The pros and cons of getting into video

* Which types of authors benefit most from using video in promoting their books

* Most effective venues for your videos to be shown

* How to hire professional videographers

The afternoon workshop, “Filming and Editing Your Own Promotional Video,” will highlight equipment, software, and tips of the trade for producing your own videos. The fine points of how authors can shoot and edit video with smartphones, tablets, and computers, and which consumer-level video editing software to purchase will be covered.

Topics covered in the afternoon include:

* Anatomy of a YouTube channel

* Author and publisher YouTube videos

* Feasible “Do-It-Yourself” video projects

* Resources for learning video production skills

* Authors on-camera: Good and bad

Bring a sharp focus to your knowledge of author videos at BAIPA on July 11!

We are implementing all the recommended precautionary measures to keep our meetings private and safe for all participants.
