title: An introduction to video production.
abstract: High quality video recording and editing equipment is much more affordable now than in the past. This is tempting medical illustration units to move into offering video production as part of their services. This article provides practical guidance by outlining some of the basic technical information which new users of video equipment need to understand. It also argues that the technical aspects of video form only part of the set of issues for consideration and that video producers also need to think carefully about the way they plan their projects and the way they work with their clients.
