You have to be able to think right back down to the level of not already knowing things AND be able to teach.

You have to make a tutorial that answers any questions that may come out of what you are trying to pass on - it's no good if someone watches it and another 10 seconds of video would have saved you receiving emails from them because they almost got it but not quite.
Yes. The quality of the video is very important. A bad video will not teach and will lead to a lot of unanswered questions.
