Common concerns – “HOW DO I LOOK?”
Common concerns – “HOW DO I LOOK?”
Mirror image – Displays your reverse image. Your right side appears on your reflection’s left side, and vice versa.
Non-mirror image – Displays your “true” image insofar as it’s what the camera displays, and what other people see when they look at you face-to-face.

Finding the Motivationvalue + confidence = motivation
“How can I feel confident in front of the camera and producing my own
videos?”
“What value is there in
making video?”
Poll everywhere:
Do you feel comfortable with the entire video production process?(capture, editing, captions, and more)
Best PracticesOutline
Advantages:• Tone becomes more casual
and thus more relatable.Disadvantages:• More time will be spent
captioning later.• Might miss information you
wanted to share.
ScriptAdvantages:• A completed script for
captioning.• All points are covered in the
exact way you want.Disadvantages:• May feel less natural than
how you would teach in a classroom setting.
Prepare an outline or write your entire script.
Video Captions and TranscriptsMake sure your video is accessible to all users
(including students with disabilities, ESL students, and students who prefer reading over
watching). Some helpful tools include:• Canvas/Amara - free but requires videos be
uploaded to Canvas• YouTube - free but requires videos be
uploaded to YouTube• Mobile Voice Recognition (such as Android's
Google Keyboard)• Others: Dragon Dictation, Rev, 3Play Media
Keep the video short (somewhere between 4-6 minutes in length).
Advantages:• Maintains student engagement and keeps the video
focused on a specific topic (one they can search for more easily later on).
• Don’t need to record for lengthy periods of time (and increase risk of making a mistake)
