introduction to video - 1. What are some advantages of digital video

Digital video has many advantages over analogue video tape due to its great ease of use, portability and durability. The most common usage is presentations which include training, corporate presentations, video kiosks and video libraries. Advantages of using digital video are :
  • Enhanced learning as moving pictures with sound are more effective than stills.
  • Footage can be updated or changed with ease.
  • Digital video adds a whole new dimension to presentations as it can be easily incorporated into computer presentations.
  • With network capabilities, presentations can be distributed easily.
Since digital video clips are basically files, they can be integrated into many databases just like text or numeric fields for useful applications. For example, video clips of historical/educational/marketing events or trips can be integrated with more mundane information to provide a more interesting presentation.
