[Bf-webcontent] Watching videos

[Gerard Maguire]

@Francesco

Ciao Francesco, tutto bene ?

Ok I'm not going to be polite about this.
And no one has to give any consideration to what I am about to say as I am
new to this.

This decision makes no sense. And seems ill-considered and hasty.
Why the rush ?
What are the reasons for this ?

What are the details ?

Is the purpose of each video well defined ?
What will the content be ?
How long will the videos be ?
Are they voiced ? Avoiding voice overs is surely a benefit.
Are they branded in any way ?

Has this decision been made simply because it is convenient  and "ticks
some of the boxes" ?

Best regards and with a deeply furrowed brow.

Gerard.
