So How About those Educational Videos for Consumer Debtors about Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Cases?

By Joseph McDaniel, Esq.

Has anybody else tried to make educational videos for consumers about bankruptcy topics involved in Chapter 7 cases? Or Chapter 13 or Chapter 11 or Chapter 12?

It's a lot harder than it looks when you watch those folks on television, like weathercasters and newscasters.

They make it look easy. My guess is that it is easy.

For them.

First you have to have content, and you need disclaimers as well.

More of those after the 2005 Amendments to the Bankruptcy Code, by the way.

And you want the videos to be a little entertaining, so that your reputation as the most boring man on earth doesn't get a new boost.

And you want the videos to answer most asked bankruptcy questions, or otherwise, why bother?

But when the camera starts "rolling"(and they don't really roll anymore, do they?), the fun starts.

Either you get an itch that you have to scratch, or you burp, or hiccup, or gosh knows what. Or the dog starts barking.

So you try making consumer bankruptcy videos at the office.

And the fun begins.
