Takeaways

This promo video for OnEBoard Live was created with Google Vids. 

Nina Trankova: Google Vids "gives you so much professionalism in the video creation without being a video creator at all just from scratch".

Nina Trankova on the ease of creating videos with Vids: "for professionals at work, what could take them weeks can now be reduced to hours." 

Bob Danley: "I'm gonna have to definitely try this. In fact, it's the tool that I probably was hoping for and I didn't know I really needed it."

Bob Danley: Compared to Adobe Premiere Pro, "consider Google Vids as maybe like a car that would get a lot of mileage as opposed to one that you want to race 500 miles an hour."

Peggy Kolm: "I think the real power of Google Vids is this integration with your Google Workspace."

Peggy Kolm:  "I think one of the things that makes me hesitate a little is that I feel like it maybe doesn't have as much personality as if you do it from scratch, just because it has these preset templates and formats that are kind of business-oriented ... if you want to do something super creative, I'd be interested in hearing how well that actually works."
