Present A Professional Image…On Video (Introduction/Overview)
May 25, 2010 by Sylvia · Leave a Comment
This is a preview of a program I developed for how to present a professional image on video (for video profiles). The video was shot and digitally edited by a professional videographer (Tim Fahey). The content was developed by me (Sylvia Henderson). I invite constructive comments as to whether you would invest in such a program for yourself or for your organization, as well as ancillary educational materials to help you put the concepts into practice.
Success Language “In Plain English”

A huge part of the concept of "success language" is communicating clearly, whether through words (spoken & written), text (written hard copy or electronically), or visuals (still or motion). One very effective technique for communicating clearly is to simplify complex concepts through cartoons.
Most of us can relate to cartoons and comics regardless of how artistic or amateurish said cartoons are drawn. Stick figures suffice if they are used to express concepts effectively.
“Social” of Social Media = Interpersonal
A Nielsen Wire study notes statistics on the rise of social media use in recent years.
READ STUDY RESULTS. (Nice graphs, too, for us visual information processors.)
The "social media phenomenon" can no longer be considered a "new thing". Google, Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, and other sites have been around long enough for an entire generation of people to know nothing except these tools! And that generation is a growing part of the workplace.

Great predictions for how we communicate at the beginning of this decade (or end of last decade, depending on your view of the year 2010).
(Sylvia’s addition) Interpersonal communication skills are more important than ever in order to maximize the expanding opportunities for connections. You still have to make positive first-impressions, visually and through written communications.
