Author & Video Markup on the Same Page

[justinnerd]

I just have a quick question about using schema.org markup.

Is there any situation where you'd want to include both author & video markup on the same page?

[itrogers]

You can and should include both if you are able to. You are not limited to using one element of schema.org on any page. It's helpful for Google and other search engines to better categorize and understand the elements of your page. If you have a video on a page with a description written by a particular author, then definitely include both. As to how that page will show up in SERPs is Google's call, which will depend on the query.

Yes.

Video-blog kinda thing or "vlog" or whatever it's called by the cool kids these days. Whiteboard Friday kinda thing - totally appropriate.

I can't really think of any other use-case right now...Maybe interviews if the authorship is pointing at the interviewer?
