Organization
The structure of a video consists of introduction of the speaker, description of each step taken to create a channel and the recommendations of linked videos. The instructions show how to sing in or create a Google account, then to create a business YouTube channel. The video uses clear screen recordings and professional production to provide quality sound and picture.
Presentation/Format
The video is an example of oral presentation with additional materials, screen recordings. Moreover, it is an extemporaneous presentation, meaning that it was rehearsed earlier, but the presenter creates sentences as he speaks (Markel 577). The speaker has a clear goal and addresses the audience in a simple language (Markel 579). The length of the video (presentation) is 5.52 minutes. As shown in the screenshot, the layout of the screen is centered on the screen recording, with the video of the presenter in a bottom right corner.
Conclusion
Based on the analyses of audience, purpose, presentation, and organization, the effectiveness of the instructions of the video is high. The video offers clear instructions for beginners. However, it would be helpful that instead of linking videos with additional information, to add the information into the video itself. It is advisable to keep the total length of the resulting video with all the additional information under 15 minutes.
