This Video Production Tips blog has nearly 400 posts, articles and tutorials about all aspects of video production. That’s a lot of information on how to make video!

To make it easier for you, so you can save time and have all the best info at your fingertips, here is a compilation of the most informative, comprehensive and popular posts here on VPT. 🙂

Together, this group of posts contain enough information to rightfully be called a complete home study course in how to make video, but there is nothing to sign up for.

I promise you will find more practical information here on how to make video than you will in some very expensive courses.

I tried to narrow it down to just those posts which I thought contained critical information for anyone wanting to learn to make their own videos, so they can take advantage of the online video revolution. I do not want you to waste your time learning stuff that you do not really need to know.

As always, if you have questions, please contact me for personal assistance.

Thanks and Happy Video Making!
