Video Collaboration Process

• Vetting will review your powerpoint before you record video with it

• Create videos as you collaborate with IDC to create the modules

• Send videos to MM team as you record them

• MP4 format

• We won’t be able to use your YouTube or Panopto links as source files, these must be actual MP4

Video Recording Tips

• If you mess up in the tape, don’t pause the video—just pause in talking, clap to create a sound pop so the mess up is easy to identify by the editor, then repeat the sentence and keep going.

• Use a microphone if you can. 

• Record in a carpeted room with soft furniture if possible.

• Face a window for better light on your face but watch out for over-exposure

• Don’t record with a bright window behind you

Video Presentation Tools

Powerpoint

• PowerPoint files emailed to eCampus Vetting for copyright check before recording

• Format the presentation as wide screen for video

• You can use Powerpoint or Google Slides

Panopto 

• Platform for sharing video in courses

• Allows us to keep the same link if a video is updated, so the link doesn’t have to be updated in the course
