Peter and I have started a Wiki page to create a guide to improving the
quality of videos produced at OOo conferences.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/How_to_assure_good_quality_of_video_recordings
The idea is to give organisational teams the tools to produce videos of
presentations that are of the highest quality.
The wiki page is divided in to three sections that refer to the three
main
groups:
The Organisers
The Speakers
The Media team
Each group also has it's own specific page that will go into more detail
as I
get time. Mostly it's technical in nature in terms of Venue management
and
equipment.
These pages have a Q&A to cover things that we may not have thought of
in the
first draft, but which people have been affected by in past conferences.
Any input welcomed.
Cheers

Sounds good, one thing that I will like to see is the technique that you
can combine the digital version of the slides within the recording, this
can be done on most non linear video editors software including cinerella,
other commercial software like Adobe Premier or Apple Movie Maker could do
it.
The key is having the slide as the main cammera and the speaker as second
camera.
The venue should have the speaker in a different space than the
projection, this will avoid vieweres to block the light from the
projector. although I can't see this be ok for many speakers since they
like to point at stuff on the slides I think this is an exception more
than a rule.
Finally the lighting should improve, speakers are way too dark and some
times the speaker is unrecognizable. Also will preffer recording this on
HD digital video as opposed to traditional 8mm (some firms still working
on 8mm). I really like "the red" cammera, but the general rule is having
good lenses with good ISO. There is new SLR cammeras that also shoot video
and their image is great. Please watch geekbrief show talking about the
image of this camera.
