 * Under my school email address
 * Powerpoint works well with AVC

SchoolTube seems to be open to the world – but all work has been previewed by an adult. Rob does 2 training videos about newscasts – using Adobe Vis Communicator Schooltvmadeeasy.com Poll everywhere is so cool. Have people text responses to a message number with the text as a number and then their message.

Main purpose – to look at the metadata Uploader tool

[|AskMrZblog.com] Schooltube.com Schooltvmadeeasy.com – see equip recomentation – they sell a package that includes everything but compyuter and camera. I need to have a parent with experience look over this, what we have, and set up our program! Maybe 1st period each day with broadcast for later in the day? Or end of one day for the next day?? T TeachmeVC.com = join user group for advise/questions/best practices!!! Help with Visual Communicator – many groups that use this prod for web videos

Fantastic Social Studies piece Intro with anchors Each student writes a 30 second opinion on an issue Film students with opinion in front of different background Amhersttechtv.org = see video showcase, see slide show about building of studio. Add link to morning show on school website 1st standard proj = caring message project, He starts at 8:15, and go live at 9:05!!!! Prep time is streamline with a template, very little needs to be changed from day to day. AskmrZshow.com goes to school channel Look at episonde 4 about prep morning show. A typical morning show. Jobs producer Flash media server, live streaming, web streaming. Have students do short segments the beginning of school year and feature 1 each news broadcast as filler!!!! Caring message (check that out as an example!) Maybe start out with a Friday program, maybe start out with Cris cristler and LS and 5th grade????? As an example. Questions, do I need to post outside? Does it really need to be live? Can I post to our server and teachers log on from there? DON”T use a HD camera – VC won’t like it. $79 mixer will make all the difference in the world $40/$60 instructional videos from Rob. Use pp slide, text, background, multiple pic, save as JPG. Flex recording – when mistakes are made – start recording from this point allows. Firewire cameras are the way to go. USB is not for live video. Canon ZR60 model OR Firewire converter box ($150) or in getting started package, composite imput, any camera with AV cable this makes any camera work. Vis Com allows upto 3 cameras and you can switch views. Desk top computers best, each computer needs Firewire cards. Freezes & lockup – defrag hard drive, put all material on main drive Fastest computer most ram. Lip syncing prob = plug in mic to camera not to computer!
