FAQs – Elevating Your Course Production

Choosing the Right Recording Style

Let your course content dictate your video style. Opt for a “screencast” for technical or coding courses, a “talking head” for personal delivery, or a combination for a dynamic presentation. Slide presentations with audio voiceovers can effectively visualize complex concepts.

Budgeting for Equipment

Your spending depends on existing equipment and your investment willingness. Most smartphones capture HD video, but consider an external microphone for superior audio quality. Experiment with your current setup before making equipment purchases.

Test Video Submission Process

Once your recording space is ready, submit a brief test video for personalized feedback on audio, video, and delivery quality. Though not obligatory, this step ensures confidence in your recording setup. Feel free to submit additional test videos if you make setup changes.
