Creativity Tips Vlog Series: 1-10 #LDvid30

Thanks to the inspiration of @karenmolonely of Sydney and my friend Helen Blunden of Melbourne I’ve taken up the challenge of recording a short (under 3 min) video each day and contributing to the L and D (Learning and Development) global community. I am cross posting on Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook and YouTube (collected in a Playlist) and my theme is (shock horror!)

“Creativity Tips!”

Bet you didn’t see that coming. What I am trying to do is keep it raw, going with whatever I shoot in one take. I’m also trying to incorporate a visual in each episode and tap into metaphor a bit. Some topics are influenced by my previous work in this field, but others are totally spontaneous, relating to something going on at present.

As for the tech, I am experimenting with, which can result, I’ve discovered, in some pretty hilarious voice recognition snafus with the subtitles. But I’m just going with it. I tend not to like unpolished vids  – especially with talking heads- but I must admit I’m having fun doing these and learning a lot from others’ posts.
