Recording Lectures, Talks and Instructional Video

Features

LITS offers a two options for recording lectures, talks, and instructional video: 

  • Panopto lecture capture system: Bryn Mawr subscribes to a cloud-based lecture capture and video streaming system that makes it easier for faculty, students and staff to record lectures, talks and instructional videos. Many classrooms are equipped with a lecture capture camera, and Panopto can record audio and video of a speaker plus a screencast of what they present on screen/overhead for simultaneously playback.
  • Standalone recording equipment and video-editing software: Faculty, students and staff can also borrow video cameras, tripods and microphones and other equipment and edit recordings using College licenses for WeVideo, Adobe Premiere (part of Adobe Creative Cloud), or Audacity (audio only).

Getting Started

Panopto lecture capture system: Current Bryn Mawr College faculty, students and staff can get a Panopto account and use it to record on device with a built-in or connected microphone and camera (if you need video). Recording through a web browser requires a high-speed Internet connection; the desktop app records to your hard drive, but needs an Internet connection to upload that recording to Panopto's cloud-based platform for sharing.
