Do you want to create a video to share in a Facebook group with your iPhone?

I'm Brighton West and I love showing folks like you how easy it is to create online video.

In this video, I'll share how to create a simple Facebook video in a group.

So, I've got my camera here on a selfie stick just to give it a little more stability,

but you can hand-hold your camera.

And you can do this vertically or horizontally, just note that Facebook's going to make

it square so make sure the edges of the rectangle, that you're not using those as important

spots.

Let's start up the Facebook app here.

I'm going to use a group that I'm a moderator of.

We'll click on that group to look at it, and then you'll see the write something,

click in there.

And you can of course - write something there - so, just say test.

Then you'll click on the live video option.

And once again the live video option, and set it up.

Like I said, this is live video, so it's going to cut it off and make it square.

Everything looks good on screen, I'm looking at the camera, and then I'll click go live,

count 3 seconds before it goes live, and then I'll be talking to the audience.

So I'm going to make this one really quick, and then you can stop.

So let's just do this real quick.

Countdown of 3, 2, 1.

Look at the camera:

Hey this is just Brighton, doing a little test.

Then you'll see if people are joining you next to the live up top, and you'll see

comments at the bottom of the screen . But when you're done, click Finish.

Typically you'll want to do 5 or 10 minutes on a Facebook live.

Their slightly longer videos than you're used to.

Then once you've come to the end here, you can say I want to post this video and post

it to the group so people can watch it afterwards.

If you want to use online video to share your knowledge and promote yourself as an authority

in your niche, I invite you to push subscribe now.

I help coaches, authors and solopreneurs use YouTube and online courses to grow their business.

This video is part of an instructional series where I show you how to create videos on all

sorts of platforms.

But if you need help with YouTube and eCourses, reach out - I'd love to help.

My Video Tape Collection! - Duration: 5:46.

Hello, it's Tuesday, I hope you're having a good week so far.

Just over a month ago I made two DVD collection videos

Which are available to watch up there if you would like to.

But in those videos I mentioned a few times that I still have videos, VHS tapes

And I had a few requests for me to make a video talking about my video collection

So this is that video!

I've just said the word "video" so much.

It might surprise you to them that a few of these videos I have bought in the last 10 years

When I was at uni I had a video player

I didn't have a DVD player, although I did have a laptop which would play DVDs.

But also when I was at uni there were a lot of charity shops

And they were all full of videos, full of videos, because everybody was getting rid of them at that time.

So I, as a penniless student, would buy them.

Because they were 4 or 6 for a pound, which was fantastic value.

And they were a good way for me to find new films to watch.

So let's get started, all of the videos I am talking about today are of films.

I don't own any TV shows on video anymore, pretty much because they're bulky.

I'm going to split the videos into categories as I did in the DVD collection videos

And I'm gonna start with comedy and drama, otherwise known as

"Everything that I couldn't quite work out where else to put it."

First, Gladiator. This was my very favourite film for quite a long time. I have watched it a lot.

I now own it on DVD, so that must have been in my DVD collection video as well.

Seven, the Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman film, I believe this is something I got when I was at university.

Bring It On, I think I got this when it was first released. £10.99 in HMV.

Notting Hill, when was this released? 1999 maybe.

Bridget Jones's Diary, this is the only Bridget Jones film that I own in any medium.

Sense and Sensibility, I love this film, it's the one with Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet.

I think I'd say that it's my favourite adaptation of Sense and Sensibility.

Four Weddings and a Funeral. This concludes the Hugh Grant section of my collection.

Primary Colors, John Travolta, Emma Thompson again.

Adrian Lester is in this, and I remember being very excited that Adrian Lester was in this.

Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman in Air Force One.

I don't remember this film at all. I mean, I remember it existing but I don't remember watching it.

Shawshank Redemption, one of my favourite films. I think this should be a priority to get on DVD.

Saving Private Ryan, another film that I got at uni because I'd never seen it.

And Good Morning Vietnam with Robin Williams.

I don't think I've watched this video. I've seen the film but I think it was on TV and I watched it when it was on TV.

Billy Eliot, great film. £5.99 apparently, I'm not sure from where.

Special edition with a bonus documentary.

The Full Monty in a bright yellow case. I love cases that are different to the usual.

Brassed Off, great film, I'd recommend it.

This was one of my favourites to revise to because of all of the music

And I knew it really well so it didn't matter if I missed bits.

Now we have some sci-fi and fantasy films.

Minority Report, Tom Cruise film, Gary Oldman executive produced it.

Ghostbusters 2, I don't own the first Ghostbusters film. I liked this film when I was a kid, I watched it a lot.

Galaxy Quest in a lovely purple case.

This is another one that I got a uni because I felt like I definitely should have seen it already.

And Apollo 13. 1995, how does time pass?

X-Men and X-Men 2. As you might know from my DVD collection videos, I own X-Men 3 on DVD.

I kind of use the first three X-Men films as a timeline of me moving from video to DVD.

Because when I got the first X-Men film I could only get it on video.

This was the year 2000, so maybe it was when DVD players existed but I didn't own one.

And when X-Men 2 came out I could get it on either video or DVD

So I guess I must have had a DVD player by then, 2003,

But I got it on video because I owned the first X-Men film on video and I wanted them to be the same.

And by the time X-Men 3 came out it was only available on DVD

So I had to buy it on DVD, and then have two of the films on video and one on DVD

That was a fun story.

Now musicals, only four of these.

Josie and the Pussycats, £9.99.

Moulin Rouge with a red case. I loved this film for many years, I haven't seen it a long time.

Grease, this was was my favourite musical and I was a kid, it's not really anymore

But I think this is the musical that introduced me to musicals.

Cats. Now this is a weird one, because I bought this video recently, in the last two years I think.

I saw it in a charity shop. Videos aren't really sold in charity shops anymore but this one was there.

I'd never seen the musical and at that point I thought I might never see the musical

Because it wasn't on stage at that time. But this was a specially filmed version with Elaine Paige

And I thought this might be the only way I get to see Cats, so I bought it.

Of course, the end to this story is that Cats then came on to the West End, and I saw it

And I still haven't seen this video, but I could if I wanted to.

Now we have kids films.

Jumanji, I loved this film, I saw it in the cinema when it was first released.

Mrs Doubtfire, Robin Williams again.

I feel like I have quite a few Robin Williams, Hugh Grant, and Emma Thompson films on video.

And then Annie, which I got in a charity shop, the one with Albert Finney

And I'm trying to work out when it was released, maybe 1981.

And then finally we have Disney.

I mentioned in my DVD collection video that I own some of the classic animations on video and this is them.

But first we have a live-action one, we have 101 Dalmatians

The Glenn Close one. Look at the videotape.

The Lion King, one of my favourites.

The Jungle Book, I think this might be one of the first Disney videos that I got.

And then we have Aladdin which I think I got when I was at uni.

And Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

"The fully restored masterpiece with collector's booklet and footage never seen before."

Well, the collector's booklet's not here.

Finally, Beauty and the Beast. The price label has the date on it so I can tell you that I got it in 2006.

So that's my video collection, what's left of it.

Do you let me know if you still have VHS tapes as well, I want to know quite how unusual it is.

And do you have any thoughts on or memories of any of the films I have talked about today?

Anyway, let's move to the end screen.

I'm going to put my two DVD collection videos below, so if you want to see them then you can do so there.

One is films and one is TV shows.

If you want to subscribe to my channel or visit my website you can do so beside me here.

I hope you have a great day, and I will see you later on in the week.

3 Tips from JP Sears to Grow an Audience Through Viral Video - Duration: 2:41.

For those of you who do videos or wanna do videos,

there's three things that I've learned.

I didn't know them

but just kinda like being unstategic

and looking back at what's worked

and then pretending to be logical about it in hindsight.

There's three things that I've found

that are ingredients to making videos shareable.

And shareability is really the magic.

When people watch a video, that's awesome,

but when they click Share, specially on Facebook,

that's magic for reaching new audiences.

So if you're videos can contain one,

maybe even, preferably more than

just one of these three ingredients,

there'll be more shareability essence to your video.

Ingredient number one

to help the video become shareable is entertainment.

Ingredient number two is inspiration.

Ingredient number three is awareness.

By awareness essentially what I mean is

you help people discover something about themselves

that they didn't know about.

So it's kinda like some of the things

that I do in my videos.

I'm saying what everybody's thinking

but nobody's talking about.

So it's like a lotta people resonate with it,

but because nobody's talking about it

these concepts aren't really in general awareness,

but when I bring 'em into awareness

people love to be shown what they're thinking.

They don't like to be told what to think

but they love to have their mind reflected back to them,

especially like their undiscovered mind.

So

entertainment, inspiration, and awareness,

one of those ingredients absolutely is not,

is information.

Being informative can be very helpful,

it can be a great service,

but that alone doesn't create shareability,

in my experience.

So in entertainment there's so many ways we can do that.

Inspiration, oh man!

I think Prince EA,

does anybody watch Prince EA videos?

Few of you.

I think he's a great example of the inspiration component.

And then the awareness component.

So anyway, just a few considerations,

if and when you're making videos,

if you can kinda keep those in the back of your mind,

in my opinion it'll likely help the growth of your videos

and help you connect to more people.

Mobile Browser on Lexis Advance® - Show Me How Video Series - Duration: 6:28.

The purpose of this short video is to review the features and functionality of the Lexis

Advance mobile website.

The LA mobile browser is device agnostic and works on all devices with internet connection,

including Android, Windows, IOS (IPad and I phone), etc.

To get to the mobile website, simply go to an internet browser and go to www.lexisadvance.com.

Sign in with your regular Lexis Advance ID and password.

When you sign on to Lexis Advance through the mobile browser, you will have an experience

very similar to the non-mobile version.

After you sign on, you will find yourself on the landing page.

The Lexis Advance mobile utilizes responsive design to "size" to your screen.

As a result, on an iPad in landscape view, it is difficult to discern any differences

between the Lexis Advance mobile browser and a non-mobile experience.

On a smaller screen, such as a phone, particularly in portrait view, you will notice a few layout

differences right away.

For example, the additional tabs in the "explore content" pod are stacked below content type

which is initially displayed.

In addition, the menu at on the top black bar has a few fewer choices on a smaller screen.

You will notice that history and client are folded into the "more" button on smaller

screens.

Finally, the "browse" feature at the top is collapsed into just the "earth" looking

icon.

This type of "collapsing" is typical throughout Lexis Advance on smaller screens in the mobile

browser.

All of your pods are on the landing page, including explore content, history, favorites,

folders, and more.

You can, however, modify your settings or change your password from the Lexis Advance

mobile browser.

Simply choose more and then either settings or sign in profile to make the necessary changes.

You can even get to other research platforms from the mobile browser.

Choose the drop down next to Lexis Advance Research in the uppermost left hand corner.

From there you will have access to our other research platforms, including Lexis Practice

Advisor, Med Mal Navigator and more.

Today we'll choose Lexis Advance Research.

All content types are available through the Lexis Advance mobile browser, including public

records and outside of plan content.

Through the "explore content" pod, you can, even prior to putting in your search

terms, limit your search by content type, jurisdiction, practice area or international

materials.

Or, you can instead choose "browse" from the upper left black bar and browse for sources,

topics or practice centers.

And, you don't have to choose any "pre-search filters."

As in the non-mobile version of Lexis Advance, you can simply start your search, get a document

or Shepard's request right from the big red search box at the top of the page.

As you are inputting your search terms, you will notice that the "word wheel" suggests

terms to help you build your search.

After you execute your search, the results screen you see will either be nearly identical

to what you'd see in a non-mobile Lexis Advance environment if you are on a larger

tablet OR will be slightly different if you are on a phone, particularly in portrait view.

You will notice that the black menu bar at the top of the screen follows you throughout

your research session, no matter what your screen size.

From that bar, you can go back to the landing page by clicking Lexis Advance Research.

On a larger tablet, all of the same source categories and post-search filters sit along

the left side, as usual.

On smaller screens, those same source categories and post-search filters come up collapsed

at the top of the screen (prior to the actual search results).

Source categories lets you change between all available categories of search results

such as cases, news, statutes and legislation, secondary materials, and more.

Post-search filters allow you to narrow your results by additional terms, jurisdictions,

dates, sources, practice areas, and more.

Search results can be sorted (for example, by relevance, title, date or court) by choosing

"sort by" (either in the upper right hand corner or directly below the filters and above

the search results.

The number of results you specified in your initial settings will follow you on the mobile

browser (up to 50) and can be changed in settings.

Almost every tool you are used to in the Lexis Advance non-mobile setting is available to

you through the Lexis Advance mobile browser.

For example, let's go to cases and narrow our search results by adding the term "email"

and limiting our search to the second circuit to get a more manageable number of results.

From here, you will see search term map, a data visualization tool for case law, allows

you to preview color coded search terms in your case, both from the citation list and

in the document, and is available on mobile devices of all sizes.

When you choose a case, depending on your screen size, search term map may or may not

be available in your document view

Folder and delivery options are either just above the search results (on larger screens)

or at the bottom of the screen (on smaller screens).

From here, you can save documents to an existing folder or create a new one.

You can also download, email, or print your documents (as well as change your delivery

settings).

Additional functions such as searching the document for an additional term, jumping from

term to term, jumping to a particular section of the document, or viewing related content

are all available at either the top or the bottom of your screen, depending upon screen

size.

The back button will take you back to your search results.

Please notice that you can create an alert by choosing the bell shaped icon at the top

of the page so that you can have your search updated regularly and results delivered to

you.

You can also click on the star on the left hand side of the page (at the top of your

post-search filters) to save the search as a favorite.

As in the non-mobile version of Lexis Advance, Shepard's is available.

You can Shepardize by clicking the Shepard's signal choosing "Shepardize this document"

(either on the right hand side of the screen or by clicking the three dots in the bottom

right hand side of the screen and choosing view related content).

Please note that the graphical view of Shepard's is only available on larger tablets.

And, important search features such as Legal Issue Trail are available in the mobile version

of the website as well.

On larger tablets, Legal Issue Trail is found (just like in the non-mobile website) on the

right hand side of the screen below Shepard's.

On smaller screens, you much choose the three dots, then choose view related content, and

choose legal issue trail.

The Lexis Advance mobile browser is a complete research solution on the go.

The mobile browser provides the same fully functional research solution for you when

you cannot be at your computer!
