From November through December 2012, I wrote scripts for a series of product support videos for BlocksGlobal and OpenSign, a company specializing in bringing marketing content to touchscreens and other digital signage devices.
To learn more about the product, I began by getting a hands-on tutorial in working with the devices and the online platform from a company representative. I created several marketing messages, and I learned how to place them onto different Android devices. I also worked with a member of the company’s product support team to troubleshoot problems users were most likely to encounter.
I took all this information and created an outline of the videos needed to help a new customer get started with the system and a device. Once this outline was approved, I created draft scripts for a series of eight videos. The video scripts provided a step-by-step guide in preparing content for touchscreens and digital signs, and they included instructions on how to:
• Create and use an account with OpenSign
• Upload files for signage programing
• Add text and images to the content
• Add, delete, and rename content pages
• Register a device with OpenSign
• Display content on a device
• Check the status of a device
• Access administrative tools on a device
I completed two rounds of edits to the video scripts for my clients, and the final recorded videos were published online in December 2012.
