I have helped a number of lecturers to record videos for various purposes. I have also created many recordings in which I provide narration. I am able to use effectively several different methods to record videos and to make them available to viewers. A selection of these videos can be seen below.

This video is a screen recording to help students using PebblePad. The voice you hear is mine. It was recorded using Kaltura software and is embedded here via Kaltura. I have recorded a large number of similar videos to help staff and students using various technologies.

I helped Adam Sheppard, the Programme Leader seen here, to record this video as he was not confident using the technology himself. I set up the webcam and recorded this using Kaltura. The webcam microphone was of poor quality however, so we re-recorded it using an external USB mic which gave a far better result. Using Kaltura I trimmed the start and end of the video to remove unwanted parts. I also used Kaltura to embed the video here.

The video below shows UWE lecturer Georgie Gough, apparently speaking in front of a PowerPoint presentation. I recorded this using TriCaster ‘green screen’ technology which allowed me to replace the green curtain she was actually standing in front of with the Powerpoint slideshow seen in the video. The hardware required I used to do this is extremely complex and expensive. I think the outcome is good but I am yet to be convinced it is a significant enhancement worthy of the additional cost involved.

This video shows how to install the ResponseWare app on an Android device. I recorded this using a digital video camera mounted on a tripod in a darkened room. The voice heard and hand seen are mine. I uploaded the video to Kaltura so that I could obtain an embed code and show it on this web page
