5) TYPES OF VIDEO TAGS FOR THE COURSE LESSONS.
Every Tutorial is a set of Chapters and Lessons within the Chapter.
EXAMPLE: Course: Walk Cycle Animation Tutorial

Lesson 03: Root bone and Global control
Chapter: 02: Animating the leg
Lesson 01: -----
Lesson 02: -----

And So on...
Depending upon the Video length we have separated the Course Tags into 3 Entities:
Fasttrack- Present
Mid- Future Additions(In process)
Regular- Future Additions(In process)
A) FASTTRACK: These kinds of videos are the best for teaching. It has the following parameters and benefits;
a1) The published course will be tagged with FastTrack if all the video lessons are a maximum of 5 minutes long. If any of the lessons cross 5 minutes duration, the fast track tag will be changed to Short.
a2) Shorter length videos per lesson are easy to understand and easier to get back to for the students.
a3) The video is to the point hence is more efficient.
a4) These kinds of videos are best for teaching Key elements.
B) MID: These kinds of videos are,
b1) 10 min or less per lesson
b2) if any of the lessons is above 10 mins then the course will be tagged as Regular.
b3) This kind of video is best for Animation teaching.
C) REGULAR: These kinds of videos are,
c1) Above 10 mins per lesson
c2) Anything above 10 mins will be tagged as Regular and there is no limit on the length of the video per lesson. Sometimes it’s not possible to create FastTrack or Mid-level videos but it’s advised to keep the length of the video per lesson as short as possible.
c3) Tutorial consisting of an Hour-long video is not recommended, as it becomes difficult for a student to follow along the whole length plus the Student may want to scroll the video back and forth to clear the doubts created within the video.
6) AUDIO AND MUSIC GUIDELINES FOR THE VIDEO
1) You will keep the Voice Audio clean and easy to understand.
2) Primary Language of the Video Tutorial at present is only English.
3) If you do add Background music then it's recommended that you keep it to a minimum.
4) You will not advertise yourself or any platform or program, keep the video limited to teaching. AskLearnGrow will take action as per Terms of Services.
5) You will make sure You have all the permission to use the Music/sound effect if any. Check the Terms of Services. AskLearnGrow doesn’t take any responsibility for any copyright infringement. And might take down the video if found guilty of so.
7) Linking Youtube/Vimeo Videos
We currently support Youtube and Vimeo videos. Here are a few tips to get you started on how to set the Visibility option of your videos.
A) Visibility Option
1) If you are publishing free Tutorials then the youtube video linked can be set to visibility "Public" on the Youtube channel. Same on Vimeo
2) If you are publishing Paid Tutorials then make sure to set the visibility of the linked video "Unlisted" on the Youtube channel. For Vimeo, you need to buy a subscription for setting the videos unlisted.
3) Do not set the video visibility to private on Youtube/Vimeo channel as the video won't be reachable to anyone apart from you.
If you have any doubt please contact us at support@asklearngrow.com
B) Tutorial video length and key points
Students want to learn things faster so a small and to the point video tutorial is what they expect. Here are some tips to make your tutorial stand out and attract more students to buy your course:
1) If you have an hour-long video then separate it into 5-6 short videos. Split the videos and upload them on Youtube/Vimeo and link them separately as lessons.
2) More lessons per chapter is more beneficial than just one Chapter with a video. So take some time and create an attractive module.
3) Noone likes to see the loading icon or cursor moving too slow on the screen. We highly recommend that you trim bits that are not necessary.
4) Whenever you make use of shortcut keys then please address it in the video tutorial.
5) Tutorials without sounds will not be accepted.
6) English is the default language of the tutorials on the platform but not limited to it. You can upload videos in your native language. Please mention the language in the Description.
C) Should you or should you not have your video on a tutorial
This is one of the key features which we would like to address the new teachers joining our platform.
1) You can have your live video on the tutorial video but do it only for the preview video. This preview video is accessible to everyone and is one to make an impact on the student. This preview video gives an insight of what you are teaching in the tutorials. So feel free to add yourself to the preview video.
2) But we recommend (Not necessary) that for your tutorial videos you avoid putting your Live video until it's highly required. Having a Live video on the same screen can be sometimes distracting and also tends to trim the software you are teaching.
