Watching a Video vs. Reading a Post or a Book

I have always enjoyed reading - a book or a blog post. The experience can be quite immersive.

If you enjoy reading, it is no less engaging than watching a video.

But there are times in my daily routine when I can not sit down and read a book, so I listen to YouTube videos related to various aspects of content creation.

I think these learnings are greatly helping me improve my skills in video creation.

So, now I am experimenting with long-form storytelling YouTube videos.

Creating these videos takes some time, but the process is enjoyable and helps me learn more along the way.

Do you find yourself learning more effectively through videos, reading, or a combination of both?
