ETS is a good place to start if you are not sure which media production tool to use, or what types of media to integrate into your course. If you have an extensive media production project in mind, ETS can assist in the production, or provide an estimate on the cost, timeline, and necessary equipment.
Examples
- Explainer video on gamification in education or how to develop drama based activities. These videos required story boarding prior to the shoot and are composed of multiple camera angles and on-location shoots.
- A video series on illustration techniques shot with 3 cameras in the Education Library.
- Different ways to record a lecture video, such as using the Lightboard to capture writing or a 4-person panel discussion in the 360-degree format allowing viewers to look around within the video.
Workflow
Contact ETS for an estimate of production time and scope of work.
Costs
There is no cost for creating media to be used a Faculty of Education credit course. To create media for non-Education or non-credit courses, or for a project beyond the regular scope of a course, please consult the ETS media production page for a cost breakdown.
As a UBC faculty or staff member, you have access to a number of DIY media creation tools, such as Camtasia (a video editing software) or the One Button Studio (an easy to use, self-serve recording space located at UBC Studios).
Examples
- An annotated video based on your existing PowerPoint slides. For example, Dr. David Anderson created a video for his course using Camtasia and his own computer, headset, and webcam.
- A quick interview or a reoccurring weekly video summary by using the One Button Studio. You will walk out of the studio with the recording in hand, in a file format that you can edit using any video editing software.
