Tips for Recording Meetings

When recording a meeting, consider the shelf life of the recorded session:

  • Time- and date-stamp your presentation so people know when it was created
  • Avoid references to current events if discussing timeless topics
  • Provide links to more frequently updated references
  • Provide pointers for accessing potential updates or explain where to find material that may be released subsequent to your presentation
  • Whatever is seen is not necessarily recorded (Make some practice recordings to see which elements are captured and which are not).
  • Remember:

  • Turn off ringer on phone
  • Close email and messaging clients to prevent audio/video interruptions
  • Share the correct monitor in dual monitor situations
  • For the cleanest recorded view:

  • Select “Hide The Presenter Only Area”
  • Check “Enable Full Screen Toggle for Participants”
  • Enter Full Screen view
  • Un-sync the presentation and display the side bar to allow access to the Notes tab.

Don't forget to select “Record Meeting!”
