Recording Suggestions

There are many options to record your video. Zoom is a popular and easy to use option. You can create a meeting, share the screen (your slides), activate the camera of your laptop of computer and then press “record”. More information about this option can be found here:  Local recording – Zoom Help Center

Other options are Vimeo, Loom or the app Explain EDU for I-pad users.

General suggestions for recording and uploading your presentation

• It is highly recommended to record the presenter’s face, but make sure the slides remain visible.
• The required 16:9 aspect ratio works best with a 4:3 aspect radio of the slides because it allows enough room for a thumbnail of the speaker at the side of the slides.
• Make sure to record the whole screen
• Set a timer on your smartphone to keep track of your presentation time
• Check the file size and make sure it is max. 100 MB. You can use a compression tool to reduce the size, for instance FreeConvert or HandBrake.
• Start to upload in time. The video file may take a long time to transfer.
