        • Best Tips & Tricks in Video Tutorial Production
          • Setup
            • Practice with audio and camera settings prior to trying to record
            • Practice with lighting. You will want light coming on to your face from the front not from behind you to make you look like a shadow.
            • Think about times to put your face in the video vs. When to not put your face in it.

            • Recording
              • Be real / authentic; don’t try to play a character. Be real for the educators who will be watching your tutorial.
              • Be aware of unnecessary mouse movement while you are speaking. However, be sure that it is able to be clearly seen when moving it.
              • Keep going and don’t stop once you start recording. There are awesome and simple editing tools that make it easy to edit out and clean up mistakes or pauses. Having one file to deal with is easier.
              • When it's time to click a button, type something, or hyperlink to a new website, always stay silent. This way you can edit out the breaks in the middle to make your final edit more professional.

              • Publishing
                • Keep your content at a viewable length. Think about students’ attention spans and then think about the time your teachers have to focus on a video tutorial.
                • Chunk the content into smaller pieces. Don’t do a full Google Classroom training, break up into small sections.
                • Know your destination (YouTube vs Google Drive)

                                                                                                                                        The motivation for the book was the Pandemic. If it hadn't been for technology, we wouldn't have had school in so many places.
                                                                                                                                        We have always had people like you and I who were pushing the frontiers when it came to technology. But, we also have so many who aren't comfortable with technology and especially don't have a way for it all to work together.
                                                                                                                                        When everything is pencil and paper, life is easy. When everything is digital, it's easy.  But when you have one foot in the boat and one foot on the dock, that's when life becomes hard. This book is the how to do it book to organize your life digitally. It connects the dots. It shows how things build upon other things.
