Be honest. Are your health and safety videos exciting to watch? Here’s the thing: If they’re dull, they’re potentially dangerous. Key information gets ignored because it’s presented in a very boring way. That’s where we come in. Here’s how to make a good health and safety video without making it boring:
1. Use Engaging Visuals
Dynamic visuals are crucial. Utilise high-quality graphics, animations, and live-action footage to keep the audience’s attention.
2. Utilise Interactive Elements
Where possible, add interactive elements like quizzes or scenario-based questions. This encourages active participation and reinforces learning.
3. Know Your Audience
Understand who will be watching your video. Tailor the content to their specific needs, language, and requirements. Make it relatable.
4. Keep It Clear
Attention spans are short. Aim for clear and concise messaging whilst ensuring all information is included.
5. Tell a Story
People love stories. Use real-life scenarios to convey your safety message. This helps your viewers connect with the content on a personal level and makes for good health and safety video.
6. Incorporate Humour
A bit of humour can go a long way in making your video memorable. Just be sure it’s appropriate and doesn’t undermine the serious nature of the message.
7. Invest in professional production
Poorly produced videos can reflect badly on your brand and reduce the impact of your message. High-quality sound, lighting, and editing makes a significant difference to the retention of information.
Don’t settle for boring. Engage your audience, keep them safe, and make sure your message sticks.
