Examples of poster video presentations:
When making a video for a poster presentation it is important to see both the presenter and the poster. The person watching the video can easily see what is on the poster. The first example actually has someone zoom in to highlight what the presenter is pointing to on the poster. This is not necessary, but is a nice addition. Remember poster video presentations are 3 – 5 minutes in length.
