The Author’s Video Field Guide shows you how to move from a first idea to a finished video with a clear purpose—and a plan for putting it to work. Built on more than a decade of interviewing experience and our direct work producing videos with authors, it addresses the decisions that separate simply appearing on camera from creating something people will watch. This is not another list of camera tips. It is a nearly 80-page guide to creating author video that is more focused, more watchable, and more useful long after you press publish.
