1) ISR Retreat 2010 – May 6th, 2010

a) Videotaping Retreat sessions – discussion with Tim

Two options are available:

record mouse movements on ppt presentation plus record voice: use Camtasia plus presenter wears a wireless mike from ITMS
record mouse movements plus record voice as above plus book ITMS staff to video tape session; ITMS contact is Alan Kirker; Tim doubts that there would be a charge for their help

We need to think about what we want for our final project. Whether we pick i. or ii. We should record the entire session then edit it. Plus use Audacity for sound.

Copyrighted material – if presentation includes such content, then hosting on the library server becomes problematic; currently no space on library server.

Kristen could be available for technical assistance on May 6 and for post production work.

Action#1: Kathy to ask Allan Bell/Systems if there is a place to host video internally.

Action#2: Kathy to ask Systems to install Camtasia 6 in DC conference room, plus Flexlab.

Depending on Alan Bell’s answer, confirm with panelists/presenters that they are OK with screen-,voice- and video capture of their presentations. Also talk to Alan Kirker about borrowing mike and getting operator for videotaping. Down the road, we could show Sheril Hook what we have and ask if she wants it on youtube.
