Choosing the right instructional strategy.  Safety videos often need to convey complex information and procedures. For this reason, it is important to choose the right instructional strategy to ensure that the video is effective in conveying that information. 

For example, using animations and simulations can be an effective way to demonstrate a complex procedure, while using real-life scenarios can help to make the information more relatable.

Creating a clear and logical structure. Safety videos need to be clear and easy to understand. So, it is important to create a clear and logical structure in the Design phase. This ensures that the video is easy to follow and that the information is presented in a logical order.

Incorporating interactive elements. Safety videos can be more engaging and effective if they incorporate real life examples, are site specific and use a mix of animation and live action  These elements can help to reinforce the information presented in the video and can also be used to assess the audience’s understanding of the information.
