A demonstration of how to build flexibility into the video and course production process to allow for improvement, adaptation, and dynamic content, addressing the need to accommodate different teaching styles and different delivery needs.
In this discovery session, the presenters will be available to discuss how to build online course video production to allow for flexibility, addressing the need to accommodate different teaching styles, the need to adapt supplemental visual materials and deliver tailored content to students. The demonstration will showcase videos created with flexible designs to address a variety of learning experiences and recognize the different styles faculty have when teaching to the camera. By using a chroma key production method, the design of the video is scalable and can be used for many purposes. This allows for the maintaining an avenue for endless possibilities for the output of the video.
The session will have examples of online classes that have been developed using this flexible production method. The presenters will walk through the process and explain the materials and practices. The conversation will showcase how by planning and developing the shoot of the video properly, the content can be utilized in various places/programs. For example, the content created at the Goizueta Business School at Emory University has used this method to create content for non-degree programs, degree programs, and promotional content. Output formats can include annotated visual lecture materials, slide content behind the professor, allowing for multimedia components to be brought into video and a combination of multiple videos compressed into one format.
This session will address some of the following questions:
- How costly and complicated does building this production process need to be?
- Can this be done in-house or does it need to be outsourced?
- Is this something that faculty could feasibly learn to do on their own?
- How do I take a faculty member who is excellent in the classroom but camera shy in the studio?
- How do you give a non-camera active person confidence to deliver engaging content on camera?
- How do you keep video content from just being a boring talking head?
- How complicated is it to develop content with green screen technology?
