Who Should Make Videos for the Scientist?
Eric Brennan (USDA-Agricultural Research Service) and Karen McKee (The Scientist Videographer) talk about DIY science videos. In this series, they answer questions that science professionals may have about making videos to share information about themselves and their research. This video series was inspired by a paper Eric published in Frontiers in Communication: “Why Should Scientists Be On YouTube? It’s All About Bamboo, Oil and Ice Cream”: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fcomm.2021.586297/full This is the second video in the series and focuses on the question of who should make videos for the scientist. Other videos in this series are at these playlists on Eric's and Karen's channels, respectively. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLn2iLaALBpEpAW6AlSHYW2-jJX7cQ5zzM https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZWbXKooxgLCYdPXamP_W_ezKSlkTO7K9 Be sure to check out our YouTube channels: The Scientist Videographer (since 2012): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFtjp05ppLP-OfbgE5628iA Dr Eric Brennan USDA-ARS (since 2014): https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnnF1-A2Uacfv7D361QNJ5g And examples of our science videos: Sea-Level Rise, Subsidence, and Wetland Loss: https://youtu.be/RL3n19GRFSM Efficient Intercropping for Biological Control of Aphids in Transplanted Organic Lettuce: https://youtu.be/KVLgt2_J1Wk Follow us on Twitter: @scivideographer @EBrennanScience
