However, the mistake that I see people making (and I am a former TV news manager, btw) is thinking they have to produce/package video, TV-style. WRONG. If you want to include video, go with unprocessed. We were moving that way in my tv time, in fact, and it's much more interesting. Shoot in a way that all you have to do is trim and upload; that enables you to include video AND keep producing a lot of copy too.
