More Techniques For Shorter Videos

Some recent things I'm doing to keep them as short as possible:

1. Title slides - I changed from the default 5 sec. to 2 sec.

2. Aggressively chopping out pauses and hesitations in my talking, breathing noises, etc. You can zoom in on the timeline and get very exact with the audio track.

Students are very sensitive to the length of the vids. Looking back at my monsterous 14 minute Destiny Tutorial, I'm amazed they even watched it. I may go back through some of the older vids and tweak them for less time.
