We get it\u2014trends in the media world move fast, and the world of L&amp;D is busy. How do you keep up with the latest innovations?<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s sometimes a challenge to keep a pulse on what\u2019s new in video, you\u2019re not alone. The demands on learning pros are higher than ever, plus media likely isn\u2019t your only area of expertise. L&amp;D is often slow to adopt new trends and technologies, but with solid intel from people in the know (<a href=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/disciplines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">that\u2019s us!<\/a>), you can jump on the right trends and level up your video-based learning.<\/p>\n<h3>Video in the learning industry<\/h3>\n<p>First, a quick refresher on why it\u2019s worth it to keep up with the latest video-based learning trends. It\u2019s no secret that <a href=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/blogs\/video-based-learning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">video is a powerhouse of learning potential<\/a>. Video-based learning projects\u2014when done right\u2014capture the hearts and minds of audiences, and cutting-edge video technology can help communicate abstract subject matter and complex ideas in ways other mediums can\u2019t. And yet, many of the most popular trends in learning and development don\u2019t capitalize on the versatility of video as a learning delivery method\u2014either because of the time constraints, assumed price tag, or a lack of internal capabilities. But the payoffs of producing purposeful, high-quality learning-video content far outweigh the costs.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maestro\u2019s in-house video production team brings high-quality, engaging media solutions to the learning space (check out a teaser of our work below!):<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Maestro Website - Home Hero 16:9\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/740495437?h=cdf1fa271e&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h6><\/h6>\n<p>Our Media team is constantly tracking the latest industry trends and putting them into the context of L&amp;D.

This guide will help you get clear and feel confident.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<a href='https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Video-Production-Guide.png' class='button' style='background-color:transparent;'>Get the guide<i>\u2192<\/i><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Short-form content<\/h2>\n<p>Do you spend much of your time looking at a screen? If the answer is yes, then you\u2019re already familiar with short-form video content (i.e., videos under three minutes). Outside the learning industry, short-form content is king\u2014from TikTok dance challenges to those cooking videos you\u2019ve seen at the gas pump. That\u2019s because marketing professionals and influencers alike know that short, concise, and well-produced videos are one of the most effective ways to deliver material and keep people engaged. And since you, as a learning professional, are essentially marketing your material to your learners, it makes perfect sense that short-form video content is among the trends in L&amp;D to watch.<\/p>\n<h3>Video-based learning trends: The value of short-form content<\/h3>\n<p>The great thing about incorporating short-form video content into your learning experience is that it benefits both the creator and the learner. Short videos don\u2019t just deliver learning content that\u2019s easy for the learner to digest; they also encourage you, the creator, to hone your key messaging and cut the fluff. When you only have a couple of minutes to communicate your point, you\u2019re more likely to get to the heart of your learning material quickly.<\/p>\n<p>This approach will also earn you some brownie points with your learners because it shows them that you value their time. So instead of the typical 10-minute explainer video, try chopping your learning material up into bite-size pieces, focusing on key ideas, quick-gets, and memorable content.<\/p>\n<h4>Get inspired<\/h4>\n<p>Want to see short-form video content in action? We executed bite-sized learning videos for the managers at <a href=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/work\/johnnys-markets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Johnny\u2019s Markets<\/a> because we knew, due to chaotic schedules, they could only dedicate a small amount of time per week to learning. These short-form videos are one aspect of a comprehensive leadership-development curriculum that leveraged not only media but also application activities and coaching with their higher-ups. Check out the short introduction video that kicked off the learning program.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"WDP02 - Video 1 - Introduction\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/703721503?h=88f396a735&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Interactive video content<\/h2>\n<p>What if there were a way to create scenarios that were more immersive, more realistic, and helped increase learner engagement and motivation? That\u2019s where our next trend comes in: interactive video content. Generally speaking, interactive video content is content that a viewer can directly interact with or impact to create user-specific results. Think of those choose-your-own-adventure stories from grade school. That\u2019s the analog version of interactive content.<\/p>\n<h3>The value of interactive video content in learning<\/h3>\n<p>Interactive video content is a great way to ensure your learners engage with the material, because in order to make informed decisions about where to go next, they have to pay attention. Plus, because of their active role in these interactive experiences, learners are more likely to retain and comprehend the material. Learning is a process, and part of that process is putting your knowledge to the test, failing in a safe environment, and trying again to see if you can get a different outcome.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8310 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.10\u202fAM-600x255.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.10\u202fAM-600x255.png 600w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.10\u202fAM-1024x435.png 1024w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.10\u202fAM-768x326.png 768w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.10\u202fAM-1536x652.png 1536w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.10\u202fAM-2048x870.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8311\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8311\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8311 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.27\u202fAM-600x253.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.27\u202fAM-600x253.png 600w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.27\u202fAM-1024x432.png 1024w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.27\u202fAM-768x324.png 768w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.27\u202fAM-1536x648.png 1536w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Screenshot-2023-12-04-at-11.25.27\u202fAM-2048x864.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8311\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Images courtesy of <em>Honda The Other Side<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Get inspired<\/h4>\n<p>Interactive video content is one of the quickly growing video-based learning trends that could transform your learning initiatives. Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/hondatheotherside.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this dual-narrative Honda advertisement<\/a> that lets the viewer control the story through an interactive film format. Pretty compelling, right? Even if you don\u2019t have the capabilities in-house to create interactive video content, <a href=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/connect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the right learning partner<\/a> can make the magic happen for you.<\/p>\n<h2>Video-based learning trends: Authentic stories and experiences<\/h2>\n<p>An essential element of any effective learning experience is connection. When learners connect with the material\u2014intellectually, emotionally, socially\u2014the learning is more likely to stick. One way to create and foster this connection is by prioritizing authentic storytelling, in other words, highlighting real people and sharing real stories. <a href=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/learning-principles\/learning-should-meet-people-where-they-are\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learning should meet people where they are<\/a>, and by leveraging learners\u2019 real thoughts, stories, and experiences, you\u2019re much more likely to create experiences that resonate. Consider the video trend of user-generated content (UGC), which is popular outside the learning industry. Brands leverage videos created by consumers because they help build trust, boost brand awareness, and cultivate relatability.<\/p>\n<h3>The value of authentic storytelling in learning<\/h3>\n<p>Being real builds trust between you and your learners. When learners see themselves reflected in the content, it captures their attention. Plus, the applications for this learning video trend are endless\u2014from docu-style interviews to collaboration with learners from your audience to inform your script. Just be sure to incorporate the learner perspective into your learning experience with intention. What are your learners\u2019 mindsets? What do they value? What would make them feel seen and heard? And what\u2019s the most natural way to integrate their stories into your production?<\/p>\n<h4>Get inspired<\/h4>\n<p>Include learners in the video-development process by <a href=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/downloads\/how-to-build-empathy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">conducting learner interviews<\/a> and incorporating their stories and perspectives into your script. Usually, it\u2019s a best practice to hire on-screen talent over using real learners in your video\u2014even the most outgoing team members can freeze up in front of a camera.<\/p>\n<p>But in some cases, the story will resonate best if it\u2019s coming directly from the people who experienced it\u2014that\u2019s why so many brands opt for UGC. Especially if you combine authentic stories with a well-produced, high-quality production, you\u2019re able to tug at learners\u2019 heartstrings while delivering a clear, compelling message. When we partnered with Kalamazoo Valley Community College to tell students\u2019 enrollment stories, we worked with real students to create a series of short, emotionally evocative, and beautifully produced videos\u2014check out one of the teasers below!<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Summer-Fall 2022 - Register Now - Adriana - 15s\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/689450546?h=f4e98148f2&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"640\" height=\"272\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p><h2>Short films and storytelling<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes, the situation calls for a longer-form narrative centered around a message or story. There\u2019s a time and place for straightforward, bite-sized content, but some messages will resonate better in story form. This particular trend is catching on quickly in the media world\u2014many big brand commercials are beginning to adopt this approach, crafting evocative short films in place of traditional commercials. Why? Because stories hit home; they capture the viewer\u2019s attention and affect them emotionally, which makes a lasting impact.<\/p>\n<h3>The value of short films and storytelling in learning<\/h3>\n<p>Your learners are people first. They\u2019re not blank slates\u2014they have complex relationships and personal challenges just like everyone else, and sometimes the best way to get your message across is to communicate it through story. <a href=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/webinars\/science-meets-story-how-to-use-storytelling-to-create-better-learning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Humans are wired for storytelling<\/a>, after all. And with a narrative video, inspired viewers are more likely to make choices that create meaningful change.<\/p>\n<h4>Get inspired<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8288\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8288\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8288 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Wes-Anderson-Christmas-Film-Courtesy-of-Yellow-Trace.jpeg\" alt=\"Wes Anderson\" width=\"1500\" height=\"779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Wes-Anderson-Christmas-Film-Courtesy-of-Yellow-Trace.jpeg 1500w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Wes-Anderson-Christmas-Film-Courtesy-of-Yellow-Trace-600x312.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Wes-Anderson-Christmas-Film-Courtesy-of-Yellow-Trace-1024x532.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Wes-Anderson-Christmas-Film-Courtesy-of-Yellow-Trace-768x399.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8288\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wes Anderson Christmas film, Courtesy of Yellow Trace<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Next time you brainstorm which learning video trends would best suit your L&amp;D strategy, consider the lasting impact of short films or storytelling, especially if you\u2019re tackling subject matter such as soft skills, leadership, or culture training. Another helpful guideline to keep in mind: if your video is longer than three minutes in length, opt for a narrative approach. For example, H&amp;M recruited filmmaker Wes Anderson to create a \u201cfashion picture\u201d for them, resulting in a beautiful and funny <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nZURpF9gNBM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">holiday short film<\/a> that used narrative to deliver the brand\u2019s message.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8287\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8287\" style=\"width: 1800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8287 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/A-scene-from-Trust-Code.-Courtesy-of-Microsoft.webp\" alt=\"Trust Code\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/A-scene-from-Trust-Code.-Courtesy-of-Microsoft.webp 1800w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/A-scene-from-Trust-Code.-Courtesy-of-Microsoft-600x337.webp 600w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/A-scene-from-Trust-Code.-Courtesy-of-Microsoft-1024x575.webp 1024w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/A-scene-from-Trust-Code.-Courtesy-of-Microsoft-768x431.webp 768w, https:\/\/maestrolearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/A-scene-from-Trust-Code.-Courtesy-of-Microsoft-1536x862.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8287\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A scene from Trust Code.
