Demonstration - combining live video and screencasting
I put together a quick video demonstrating why someone would want to combine live video and screencasting. Filming live classes makes the video more engaging, since you benefit from the unscripted student/teacher interaction; however, if the instructor makes use of Powerpoint or whiteboards, filming the instructors’ visual aids is difficult at best and a complete disaster at worst. Combining the live recording with screencasts displays visuals in a clear format without suffering from a less interesting simple voice-over.
I cut this video quickly, in preparation for a workshop, so it’s pretty rough. One interesting thing - I really dig Adobe Premiere CS3. I haven’t installed the latest version of Final Cut yet, but I’m hoping it shares some of the more innovative features, like selecting which property to modify directly on the clip (opacity, motion, etc). I don’t, however, miss video editing on the PC - as a recent Mac convert, and briefly returning to the PC and suffering two video-related crashes, there is a definite benefit to video editing on the Mac - it just works.
Anyway, enjoy the film. This would also be a demonstration on why I didn’t go into math.
