How The Verge Produces Award-Winning Videos (with Becca Farsace)
Becca Farsace won an Emmy AND a Webby for her videos at The Verge — a tech news publication with over 3M subscribers on YouTube. There, she hosts a series for them called Full Frame, which is all about cameras.
In this interview, we spoke to her about film school, the early days of Vox, her Webby, and how her process is different for short-form videos compared to long-form videos.
