January 26 | How to Make a Video from Beginning to End
No matter your corner of the university, if you want to create compelling video that people will watch, the process is the same – write, storyboard, create content, edit, distribute. In this session, we’ll talk about how to plan your video, from writing a simple script to using existing tools to record video and/or your screen right at your desk. You can also make an appointment to use our self-service studio on campus. Bring technical questions and deep curiosity. |

Options for Managing Your Zoom Recordings
It’s easy to record your meetings but at Duke, Zoom is not intended for long-term storage. If you don’t “clean up”, these recordings can get out of control. You have options to move this content to other locations like Panopto where the user viewing experience is even better. Come to this session to learn how easy it is to automatically move new recordings to Panopto. We will also discuss options for moving your previous recordings.
