The Studio offers green screen technology, where the presenters are filmed in front of a green wall (as per the picture) which is replaced with a backdrop of your choice \u2013 PowerPoint presentation, images, video, web sites (live) or even Skype or WebEx calls.<\/p>\n<p>The room is easy to use and requires no post-processing of the video (other than simple trimming) as all the video mixing magic happens live during the recording.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Benefits of using the Studio<br \/>\n<\/strong>There are many benefits to providing online videos to students in their FLO sites. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>content or instructions are provided to students for review prior to face-to-face sessions, allowing for more interactive and collaborative tutorial or lecture time<\/li>\n<li>recordings can be paused and reviewed as many times as needed, suiting different learning preferences and language competencies<\/li>\n<li>provides flexibility to students in accessing learning and attendance requirements<\/li>\n<li>provides rich visual media to explain concepts to students<\/li>\n<li>are reusable for future delivery of other subjects and to other audiences.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Uses for video in teaching and learning<br \/>\n<\/strong>Examples of videos that a topic coordinator might create and use in their FLO site:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a \u2018welcome to the topic\u2019 short message (to personalise the site)<\/li>\n<li>an \u2018introduction to the week\u2019 \u2013 a summary of the requirements for the coming week<\/li>\n<li>explanation of requirements for the assessment of the topic<\/li>\n<li>required background subject content<\/li>\n<li>presentations to support understanding of the learning material<\/li>\n<li>clarification of concepts in an engaging way that otherwise often cause confusion<\/li>\n<li>explanation of topic content, other software or websites<\/li>\n<li>responses to a debate or reflection from a lecture or discussion forum posts<\/li>\n<li>mini lectures to replace hour-long lectures \u2013 chunked learning<\/li>\n<li>recordings of visiting lecturers or content experts at a time convenient to the visitor, which can also be used for future students or in other topics.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Tips for creating high-quality video recordings<br \/>\n<\/strong>There are several aspects to consider for creating high-quality video recordings. Here are some things to think about for effective use of video online:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>consider chunking content into segments shorter than a standard lecture. If a concept takes longer to explain, find natural breaks and create multiple videos<\/li>\n<li>motivate the audience by explaining what they will get out of watching the video<\/li>\n<li>the flow of your \u2018message\u2019 is an important part of a recording \u2013 make sure your presentation has a beginning, middle and end, explain the \u2018why\u2019 as well as the \u2018what\u2019, and if possible provide real examples to further support deeper learning<\/li>\n<li>consider adding questions or prompting reflections within your video. This gives the appearance of 1:1 dialogue, making the video more personal and possibly promoting deeper level thinking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Using the Studio for the first time<br \/>\n<\/strong>We can arrange familiarisation sessions to discuss requirements regarding PowerPoint file styles, fonts, colours, clothing etc., and expected outcomes, including a brief training session on how to use the Studio.
