AI, Feedback, and Repurposing Like a Pro | Multiple Guests

We like to ask anyone who joins The Visual Lounge, what’s your one take you want to give our audience? It’s an open-ended question so we always get a good variety of unique answers and love hearing the advice, life lessons, and mindset changes we can apply to using video and images in our work. 

To celebrate our 250th episode milestone, we bring together friends of The Visual Lounge to ask them this question.  

In part one of this episode, you’ll hear from:

• Destery Hildenbrand, Learning & Development Consultant at Destery1Kenobi 
• Kassy Laborie, Speaker, Author, Virtual Training Pioneer at Kassy LaBorie Consulting 
• Nick Floro, Learning Architect, CEO at SealWorks Interactive Studios 

Each one offers insights into their own processes and fresh and valuable advice. We talk about everything from pushing through creative blocks, using AI to help with storyboarding or writing, gathering feedback from learners, to becoming a repurposing pro. Tune in to hear from experts who are living and breathing the world of video and visual design.

For part two, we’ll be talking to more great people to hear their thoughts and advice on how they approach content creation. Stay tuned for more coming soon!
