It turns out your smartphone is probably better than the cameras Emmy-winner Tony Gnau used in the early days of his video career—and he’s here to tell you why that’s good news. Jay Schwedelson gets into what’s actually required to make great video, the gear myths you can ignore, and how to stop treating video like a one-off side project. If you think you need a studio and a giant budget to win with video marketing, this episode might just change your mind.
