Tips You Need To Know When Recording Your Webinar
Broadcasting your webinar will take place from your primary computer (mac or pc). However, you should ensure that you get the most affordable prices because preparing any webinar in a rush can be very costly. Based on my experience, I found GoToWebinar by Citrix to be the cheapest solution on the market. They also offer you the possibility of having as many webinars as you want during the month. If you decide to use GoToWebinar, then you will be able to have up to 1000 participants at one time. The best part is that if you decide to prepare dummy webinars, then you will be able to do this as well.
The other services that are offered by some webinar services does not guarantee me a clean recording, and this is one thing that I try to avoid. Recording in Camtasia is the best option. It does not give you the hassle that other recording services have with different files that are confusing and sometimes don't work as well.
What you will need to do is open Camtasia on the computer that you will record on and ensure that the recording box is 640 X 480. This will allow you to broadcast on your primary computer and at the same time login as an attendee on the computer that you will record on. It is best to set the audio to manual input instead of automatic.
I have a tip for you as you record webinars that will help you to keep the echo and feedback down. You will need to get a cord from the electronic store that has a 1/80 jack on each end. After that you will need to plug one end into the microphone and the other end into the headset hole, and this will help you to have a continuous loop. When you do this, you will be able to able to talk as loud as you want and not get any feedback or echo while you record webinars. You do not have to record and edit it right away.
Your webinar will have to be resized to fit into the green recording box that you got from Camtasia. To have a professional webinar recording, simply hit the record button and watch the sound levels that appear.
You will the render it to suit your special needs: web, CD, blog, etc. That is it! These are the guidelines that you need to know to record webinars that sound professional.
