One thing that can be easy to forget when you dash off to do a video is to remember to watch and listen for your backgrounds. A poorly lit project or distracting background noise can cause costly rework in terms of both time and money. And the wrong type of content in the background can be devastating.

Watch your backgrounds, both audio and visual. In this video, I share a quick tip and recommendation on how to help with the audio backgrounds.
