Recorded, Asynchronous Video: Limit Recording Time and Get to the Point

One of the benefits of recorded, asynchronous video is you can set a maximum recording time. That means that people have only so much recording time for recording their videos. Why is that a bonus?

When people have limited recording time, they need to self-edit which means they get to the point sooner;
With better, shorter videos, less editing is involved having to wade through reams of video that’s long-winded or incoherent; and
Having shorter videos is merciful for the viewer; shorter videos makes for easier viewing.

So if you’re thinking of capturing videos for your site, consider limiting the recording time. It’s better for everyone.
