What Is a Feedback Video?

A feedback video is a recording where you review someone's work on screen and explain your thoughts out loud, instead of writing them down.

What Is a Feedback Video?

A feedback video lets you point at exactly what you mean while you talk through it, whether that is a design, a document, a piece of code, or a report. You record your screen and voice, so tone and reasoning come through.

Feedback that needs more than short written comments is where this format does its best work.

For example, instead of leaving a dozen written notes on a design, you record a three minute walkthrough of your reactions.

How Does a Feedback Video Work?

Open – Pull up the work you are reviewing on screen.
Record – Capture your screen and voice as you go through it.
Point – Show exactly what each comment refers to.
Explain – Give the reasoning, not only the verdict.
Send – Share the recording with the person.

Why Is a Feedback Video Important?

Clarity – Show what you mean instead of describing it.
Tone – Let your delivery carry intent that text misses.
Depth – Explain reasoning that would take long to type.
Speed – Talk through feedback faster than writing it.
