What is a documentation video?

A documentation video is a recording where you walk through a tutorial, training, onboarding, or policy to disseminate that knowledge.

If you have a presentation or want to share something on your screen, you can use Tella to create a video of your screen and webcam. Tella also lets you edit it afterward, so your documentation videos are clear and concise.

FAQ

How long should a documentation video be?

A documentation video’s length depends on its context. For more technical documentation videos like a training video, it may need to be over 10 minutes long. But for quick updates on things like policies or benefits, they should be no longer than 5 minutes.

What is the point of documentation videos?

Documentation videos are critical for companies to onboard employees and make sure they have access to resources to answer their questions. For information that all teams or members should know, a documentation video that’s easily accessible is essential. For legal reasons, it may even be required that you have documentation for certain employee benefits or policies.
