What is a video message

Video messages are a form of asynchronous communication. They’re typically short videos to explain or show something. Video messages are great for topics that are difficult to put into writing and visual tasks or feedback. Use video messages to replace meetings, long emails, or endless Slack threads.

How to make a video message:

Step 1: Record

From the Tella recorder pick your camera and share your screen. When you’re ready, press “Start recording”. Explain or show what you need to. For faster videos try using the Tella Chrome extension.

Step 2: Share

Once you’re done recording, click the link icon in the Chrome extension to share the video instantly. This will copy the video’s link to your clipboard so that you can share it with recipients right away.
