Hi, Tim! I LOVE how your videos look. Do you think you could make a video to show us how you created your setup and how you make your videos? It all seems so daunting to me. Keep up the great work.

Thanks, Kevin! I appreciate it! It's on my list to do a series of videos on how I create all my KZbin videos...so stay tuned!

Thanks Tim. Although a very basic video, I learnt a new tip. Work on a local file (always worked in the cloud). I have two questions: 1. Is this the same advice for portable SSD hard drives? I often use this method when designing on my windows laptop and then on my Mac Mini. 2. I have a load of files designed early in my design process. They are not in 16:9 ration. Any suggestions how to convert them to mitigate design changes. Took me hours to do this.

Thanks for watching! I've never used a portable SSD hard drive with Storyline files, so I'm not 100% sure. However, I don't think it should be an issue. Have you considered using Dropbox or another cloud-based solution to sync files between computers?

[@grantsmall_Ngenious]

@@elearningacdmy I do use Dropbox and pCloud. However I have ended up with conflicted files.

Hi Tim! What kind of mic do you use? Do you have an affiliate link for it? Thank you so much! - Michelle

Sure! Here’s the one I’ve got: amzn.to/4aA5Ikh

I tend to stick with the 4:3 ratio. 16:9 sucks on mobile when you're in portrait mode. And many of the big branded laptops don't use 16:9 anymore, they use boxier aspects like 16:10 for macbooks or 3:2 for Microsoft laptops. iPads still use 4:3 as well.

Thanks for sharing! Yes, each device is going to be different, and we should be designing for the devices that our learners will be consuming our learning content. With that, I still find that 16:9 offers more real estate and plays friendlier with most devices than 4:3. But, it's ultimately comes down to the use case.
