Lab Video Requirements
- Your video must follow the order of the requirements given in each lab do not skip around and try to get everything for each operating system before moving to the next. Instead bring up multiple windows and go from one to another in order that the requirements are listed. Points will be deducted for not following the order in the movie. (See #5 for further advice)
Your voice on the video is required i.e. points will be take off for those who do not talk through their video.
You may not use a phone.
- Upload 1 video per lab!
- Your video must not be longer than 5 minutes. Five minutes is enough time to do any required video. I highly recommend that you record each requirement separately and combine them as indicated below in Windows, Linux or Mac.
Windows comes with "ClipChamp" that is capable of splitting and removing dead space in your videos. If you create each requirement as a separate video, you can easily join them together in ClipChamp.
- Mac comes with iMovie and it also is capable of doing simple splitting and removing of dead time in your videos. Again, if you create a separate video for each requirement, you can easily join them in iMovie.
Linux has several to choose from. OpenShot comes highly recommended from several sites. Also, if you are really into video editing, you might consider Blender.
- Information shown on the screen must be readable.
Starting in 2022, all videos must be put into your wiki on a page called "Lab Videos" linked in the home page of your wiki.
Screen Recording (Updated 2023)
- Windows: "Record Screen - Free" is available on the Windows store and works great!
- Mac: Use the built-in Screenshot toolbar or Quicktime.
Linux: Use Kazam, OBS studio or SimpleScreenRecorder.
