Recording Tips for Impactful Content

Before you record

Before you record

  • Start with your learning outcome: "After watching this, people will know how to..."

  • Have a simple structure: Hook → Key points → Summary → Next steps

  • Speak as if you're talking to one person, not a crowd

During recording

  • Be yourself — authenticity connects better than perfection

  • Speak clearly and pause between main points

  • If you make a mistake, just pause and start that sentence again

Try a podcast-style interview

Not sure how to structure your recording? Try the interview format. Have a colleague or teammate ask you questions about your topic while you answer naturally. A clear question and answer format gives your recording shape without needing a script, and conversational delivery tends to land better with learners than a prepared talk. It also makes it easier for the AI to identify key points and generate useful learning activities from your content.

After upload

  • Review the AI-generated learning activities

  • Adjust quiz questions to match your style

  • Personalise the reflection prompts for your audience

Technical notes

  • 3 – 12 minutes is the sweet spot for engagement

  • Good audio quality matters more than perfect video

  • Natural lighting works better than fancy setups
