Bakersfield.com’s Davin McHenry has spent the past year turning The Bakersfield Californian print journalists into online video pros. One of his latest blog postings details some of his lessons learned about training the staff. (A few of them are the value of one-on-one training, sharing successes and embracing early adopters.)

Chuck Fadely, a Miami Herald photographer/producer, wrote the “Video Survival Guide,” which includes basic information on “what you need to know if your boss hands you a camera and tells you to do a video story.” Fadely also links to several other good resources. Fadely also started a Yahoo! group last year for people shooting video and doing other multimedia for newspaper Web sites.

McHenry’s and Fadely’s posts are just the latest in a slew of online video-shooting tips and other information that could be quite helpful to new video journalists. Here are a few more:

University of California – Berkeley: UC-Berkeley’s journalism school has a helpful tutorial series covering everything from what type of cameras to buy to shooting tips and beyond.

Current.tv Producer Training: Current.tv’s training includes online video tips on production, shooting, editing and what makes a good video story.

Online Journalism Review’s Tips for Shooting Better Online Video: One of their tips is to avoid too many pans and zooms. “… Not only does it look bad on the Internet, but unnecessary movement also slows down the video stream.”

Gahran: Keep It Simple, Just Use Flash: Amy Gahran writes, “These days, I don't think it makes sense to offer online video if the experience of watching, linking to, and sharing it is any more complicated than YouTube.”
