Other Suggestions:

Because the suggested video duration is ten minutes or less, we recommend that you only emphasize and highlight the main points of your paper; however, it would be good to discuss any concepts that are particularly difficult to grasp from reading the text.


Remember that video is a different medium than written word. Video is more suitable for communicating the big picture or difficult concepts rather than methodological details.


As you are planning your video, consider that this might be the first time that someone has come across your paper. This is your chance to make an impression and establish a readership for your paper! If you can add something a bit entertaining or novel your video will be remembered and shared.
