Let's get started.
A well-crafted microvideo can be a powerful tool that provides that just-in-time visual reference or training to help viewers complete a task. An example is one of those popular recipe tutorials on social media. This medium is used in many contexts, but technical communicators have discovered it's value in documentation and training.
