Video content is trending on LinkedIn, Google, and other digital platforms commonly used in the workplace. It’s not something you want to ignore; 93 percent of online experiences start with a search engine. Search engine and social media algorithms are geared to rank video content higher than other kinds of content. According to Cisco in 2016 videos accounted for more than 70% of the internet traffic and the forecast suggests it will be up to 82% by 2021.

How is Data Analysis Meaningful in Video Production?
