Rule 4 Sound Please.
what did they say?
A good looking image is important for your video, but don't forget the sound. If you using a web cam and your not moving more that a few feet from the camera, then your probably OK. But if your planing on moving around to demonstrate something, then you better think about an external microphone. I recently bought a pair of cheap wireless labile mics on eBay that seem to do the trick for me. I wouldn't use them on a professional shoot, but for selling my krapp on eBay they work great. Also be aware of other noises in the room, or the next room. Always check the sound with a pair of head phones (or even the ear buds from your iPod) before you start recording.
