15 Best Practices for Using Panopto

16 Best practices for creating and presenting a recorded lecture Two factors will impact the quality of your recording: o Environment o Equipment

17 Best practices for creating and presenting a recorded lecture Environmental factors to consider: o Lighting o Sound o Background

18 Best practices for creating and presenting a recorded lecture Lighting o Use an indirect light source. Indirect light is light coming in from all sides. o It's helpful to use some sort of reflector to abstain from having a beam of light facing directly at you. o If you have a lamp, possibly put a shade over it, or place a white piece of paper over it to turn it into a source of indirect light.

19 Best practices for creating and presenting a recorded lecture Sound o Get rid of as much ambient noise in the room as you can. Unplug office machines in the room you're in. Place your Microphone away from your computer (PC fans may increase in speed due to the hardware usage during a recording). Place a sign on the door of the room you re recording in to let others know you re recording. Silence telephones and cell phones.

20 Best practices for creating and presenting a recorded lecture Background o Check what is located in the backdrop of your camera! o Make sure there is nothing distracting, or anything that you wouldn't want displayed for the world to see. o Try a solid wall or anything that will force the viewers to concentrate on you, and not your surroundings.

21 Best practices for creating and presenting a recorded lecture Screen Capture o Match the exact display resolution that your computer is set to. o Meaning, if you have a monitor that is displaying 1920x1080, you should set the recorder to match. That will make it pixel for pixel exact and it will look perfect on playback!
