Lower third template screenflow11/20/2023 ![]() ![]() I just discovered PowerPoint’s ability to record video at the push of a button within PowerPoint. YouTube and Udemy have brought me so far and hopefully my contributions here will help someone along. I’m sparing you the funny and pathetic stories of how a tax accountant thought it would be easy to learn how to build an LMS website with no design or programming experience. I’ve been developing a licensing course on Wordpress for a long time and I’m finally at the video production stage, next I’ll try Udemy course production. I can still hear everything I say and catch the bloopers, and it really saves down on the time! I play my course at 2x the speed when I edit. They are all synched in and all I have to do once it's setup is to play my course and cut between all the angles. ![]() I simply click on 1,2,3 or 4 on my keyboard when I want to switch to one of the angles. This allows me to set up an unlimited number of "angles" that I can easily switch between when editing. In FCPX, there is a Multicam option available. It also helps with keeping everything consistent. I'm sure other software have the ability to do the same. ![]() It makes it super easy to do the entire setup before I start editing. is all saved for each of the angles I have. For example, color correction, where my body is located on the final video, the size of the screen that I'm showing, my fake background, my keyer, etc. I use FCPX and there is a way to save some of the edits and apply them later. Plus, editing in the afternoon means I can export the videos while I sleep, and since I export directly to a Dropbox folder, they are also synched by the morning, which means I only have to add them with the bulk uploader.Ī few tips that have saved me a ton of time: I try to keep the editing to later in the day, the morning is my prime time to record while I'm fresh. Personally, I too like to record one chapter in one day. What are some things that you've done to create a course in less time? I found that to be more time consuming in the end as I had to go back and refilm things I have said because I decided to change up the course after filming the first few lessons. As instructors we can get excited about teaching that sometimes we rush to film before we really planned out the outline to our course, and “play it by ear”. There is a theme here of sitting down to do one task before moving onto another. If I need to write a script ahead of time, I will do all this at once. I open up a google doc with my course outline and I write out the title of each lesson. This also helps to cut down on editing time and streamline my process, so I am not going from filming to editing too often and shifting gears too frequently. This way I can record it all and save the editing for one session. I can film up to four hours of screen recording content in one afternoon. This saves me a ton of time as I do not have to set it up each time, I start a new lesson as there can sometimes be 60+ lectures. I start each lesson with this template, so I already have the first few seconds set up in my editing software, same for the outro, music and fonts. These graphics look consistent or have a branded theme. This theme will have a standard look for a lower third, banners or an intro screen. ![]() Some instructors are lucky to have video editors who can work with them/for them, but not all of us are so lucky! I do one hundred percent of my own editing and finding ways to streamline that process can save me the most time.įirst of all, I create a theme or template video for my course I am working on. Editing takes the biggest bulk of most instructor’s time. ![]()
