11th International Conference on Diffusion in Materials (DIMAT)
Dear Colleagues,
we would like to share some advice on how to record your presentation for DIMAT 2021. Please prepare a Full HD (1920x1080) video recording with voice, in mp4 format and send it to via wetransfer.com by 1 July. It is absolutely up to you how to record the video! In the following we share our experiences and suggestions with you:
- Prepare your presentation just as usual, using Power Point or any other presentation software.
- Use a free platform for video and audio conferencing like Zoom or Microsoft Teams and set up a meeting with one of your colleagues. We recommend using Zoom, because in Zoom your webcamera’s picture is also included in the recording, which makes your presentation more personal.
- Open your Power Point presentation and the Zoom app.
- In Zoom click „New Meeting”; make sure your microphone and camera are on.
- Share your screen in the call, choose the opened Power Point window to share and start the slide show.
- At the bottom toolbar, choose Record, then choose “Record on this Computer” from the menu that pops up. Your lecture is now recording. Note: if you don't see the Record button, you may need to click on the "More" button in the Zoom toolbar, and choose the "Record on this Computer" option there.
- Start your lecture. Advance your slides with the right arrow key; return to a previous slide with the left arrow key.
- When you are finished, click on the "Stop Recording" button in the bottom toolbar. Note: if you don't see the Stop Recording button, you may need to click on the "More" button in the Zoom toolbar, and choose the "Stop Recording" option there.
- Click “End Meeting” on the bottom right of the meeting screen.
- Please don’t forget to finish your presentation in time, as we have to keep the scheduling!
- Check your presentation file before sending and make sure your voice is audible, and the Power Point presentation is readable.
- Send the recording to via Wetransfer by 1 July.
Tips & tricks
- Use headset for better audio recording and find a calm place where there is no background noise.
- While making your presentation file keep in mind that there will be a small window (your webcamera’s place) in one of the corners on your shared screen at the time of your presentation – make sure this place is clear of any data or text.
- Lighting: keep in mind that light coming from your background makes your camera blind and your face darker. Record your presentation at daylight and sit in front of the window.
- Webcamera: place your webcamera (built-in or sepatare) well, in front of your face and look into the camera sometimes.
- Appearance: at the conference after your presentation you will answer the questions live. So, if you wear the same shirt while recording your presentation as the one you will wear at the conference it can provide a more personal atmosphere.
We are looking forward to meet you virtually in July!
Best regards!
