Amplifying research
RES Hub studio can take your research to the next level, whether you want to film a video for your YouTube channel, record a research podcast, or take a quick clip for social media.
HDR student in the Faculty of Law, Chris Hall, uses the RES Hub studio to record videos for his YouTube channel and amplify his research by broadening his audience.
“My research is specifically looking into Youtubers and how their work aligns with journalism (theory and law). So, my channel is in part an attempt to apply lessons learned from my research,” Chris said.
Recording in RES Hub studio can help contribute to your research impact by generating awareness and informing real world impact.
“It is still early days for me with this channel, but creating videos about my research has the potential to educate broad audiences and get people in the community talking about your research and findings. This contributes to public sphere deliberation and sews the seeds for real world impact. It gives your research a chance to break out of the ivory tower,” Chris explained.

It also opens dialogue for individuals to engage with your research and generate discussion around ideas and solutions.
“Looking at comments under my latest video you can see some evidence of this engagement and education. Even though that video is not entertaining, as I am literally going through a few pieces of legislation and a court judgement, people are interested and keen to learn,” Chris said.
Publishing your research content on YouTube as a mainstream platform is also great way to reach a wide audience, with over a quarter of Australians going to YouTube for news and information.
Chris noted, “on YouTube you have the potential to reach far more people than you would communicating your research through an op-ed or TV interview.”
