Colors, fonts, images, shapes, white space, and so much more. Our work as instructional designers requires a significant understanding of digital visual design. Even if you're "just an instructional designer" and hand your work over to a "developer", there are still many basics of digital design that make us all better at the work we do.As we've learned from past episodes on topics such as translations and accessibility, how you design the instruction impacts how you will design the visual elements. Some written languages take up more line space than others, so how you write and how much your write has impact on the visuals. And how you write scenarios can also impact design elements for accessibility.Thankfully, we have Mark Lassoff joining us to discuss some of the basic elements of digital design. He has been teaching digital design for many years and understands the areas where instructional designers fall short. His recent articles on Font selection and usage are particularly useful for those new to designing instructional content.  Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

When it comes to creating learning video content, the key to success is in how engaging it is. A video can have all the right information and be clear and comprehensive, but unless it's compelling, it can fall flat with the viewer. A compelling video keeps viewers engaged, and that means any message you want to convey is much more likely to stick. But what's the secret to creating compelling instructional videos? Mark Lassoff, Video Instructor and Founder of Tech Learning Network, is on The Visual Lounge to share some words of wisdom on his process and advice for others. Mark breaks down the three must-have elements of any video and explains why talent and expensive cameras are overrated.

In this episode we speak with Mark Lassoff, President and CEO of LearnToProgram. LearnToProgram is a technical learning resource for web, mobile, and game development with over 1,000,000 students worldwide. In this episode, Eric speaks with Mark about the Connecticut ecosystem, how he became an entrepreneur, and what budding startups should hope to create (hint: it's jobs).

In this episode we talk about running an online video business and must have attributes in an employee. Guest Mark Lassoff

We constantly hear about the job opportunities and lucrative nature of the programming business. We also picture the programmer as a archetypical "tech nerd" complete with glasses and a moody disposition. But what is the truth about programming and how smart do you REALLY have to be to do it? Mark Lassoff, founder of LearnToProgram Media, has a fresh take on what it means to learn to program and how just about anyone can learn what Mark calls "modern literacy". If you've every thought about programming yourself, or just want to be able to better talk to those who code, this program is you for you.

Mark Lassoff is the founder of Connecticut based LearnToProgram.TV, a Vernon-based company offering online programming training classes as well as in-person boot camps. Lassoff has a long history of corporate programming training, and says it was a natural move to begin a more consumer-oriented instruction. The relative low cost of launching an online business has created a considerable amount of demand for Lassoff's self paced online video courses. "I saw a hole in the market that we could fill," Lassoff said, adding that professional coursesusually start at around $3500 per week and involve taking time away from the office to be immersed in the training program. Lassoff's online courses run between $50 and $200, competitive with what a programming instruction book might cost at a bookstore.
