“Creating Video… Don’t Be Blinded By the FLASH!”

Session summary:  Prof. Steve Anderson, USC Sumter, shared his process for creating screen-capture video with narration. 

Main take-aways: 

  • a free online tool called “JING” that acts like Snagit and Camtasia. 
  • pausing before speaking, between transitions, and after mistakes helps when later editing out the errors
  • sometimes Steve will use a “talking head” for an intro, but quickly removes it (or forgoes it altogether) because it’s distracting from content and people stop watching it
  • PowerPoint markup via “start inking” — ramifications for math?
