Ten Amazing Ways to Create Amazing Videos!

How to Create a Lecture in 30 Minutes

1
How to Create a Lecture in 30 minutes Introduction

The secret to producing good quality courses in quick time is all about creating systems and standardisation. In this section, I will show you how I set up my presentations, the equipment that I use, the structure of my presentations, walk you through the Screenflow editing process I follow and show you the Keynote process as well.

This is not the ultimate answer but I now produced over 250 lectures and I am honing my process all the time.

2
How to Create a Lecture in 30 Minutes - Key Settings

This lecture covers some of the main principles and settings that I use when creating my Lectures. I show you the outline structure for all my presentations and provide you with an example of my standard presentation template.  I explain the key settings I use for my recording in Screenflow and the settings I use when exporting from Screenflow.

There is also a brief discussion of microphone technique

3
How to Create a Lecture in 30 Minutes Equipment

Good equipment is the key to productivity. I have reinvested a significant proportion of my online earnings into making sure I have good, but not necessarily the best or most expensive, equipment to work with

I explain how I combine my iMac with a Logitech Webcam, a Blue Yeti Microphone and Keynote and Screenflow. You can use Powerpoint and Camtasia if you use a PC.

4
How to Create a Lecture in 30 Minutes Editing Process

Editing can be a real challenge but if you can master the basics of Screenflow/Camtasia, you should not find it too daunting. When I started it took me forever to edit a video. Now I am much faster and just try to keep things as standardised as possible. One trick, not mentioned in the video, is that it is fine to do several takes of a slide if you are not happy with the result but just keep the recording going and then cut out the stuff you don’t want.

I walk you through how I edited the introduction to this lecture group and hopefully this will help you to get more acquainted with the simple way to do things with Screenflow.

5
How to Create a Lecture in 30 Minutes Summary

This video summarises what is covered. I explained the key processes that need to be systematised In the Overview, I explained the key principles and settings I use The Equipment lecture walks you through my simple equipment set up

Finally the Editing lecture shows you step by step how I actually put it all together.

6
Bonus: Getting the Most Out of Lecture Titles and Descriptions

Lecture Titles and Descriptions are helpful not only to your students but they also have SEO, Search Engine Optimisation, value for your course as well.  Write them as you would any form of copywriting!

7
Bonus: Get The Lecture Creation Sequence Right

This is so easy to get right and so often got wrong.  If you do the latter, you might waste a lot of time re-doing some of your videos.  So sit up, watch this short video and by investing two minutes you might save many more!

8
Bonus: How to Direct Your Video Like a Pro

Here I want to share with you a really important technique used by many videographers!  And it is so easy to do and requires no additional software or equipment!  Watch the video and find out!

How John Created the Original Video

1
Introduction

In this section, I want to share with you some of the more sophisticated techniques I have learned to make my videos and lectures more interesting.  This is a real behind the scenes look at how I create the videos in my courses.

2
Watch my Original Video before I show you how I created it

This is my original video which I have created for an upcoming course.  The actual content of the video is not as important as HOW I put it together.  The scenes, the script and the techniques I use.  So watch it critically and then I will take you behind the scenes!

3
Behind the Scenes of the Original Video

Now that you have seen the original video, with the music, I want to take you behind the scenes in Screenflow to show you how this video is put together so that you understand its component elements.  Once these are clear in your mind I can share with you how the elements are created to be put together.

4
The Structure of a Video

This helps to explain the basis of every video and why they must have a clear structure to be an effective learning tool.  Without this essential building block, you cannot develop a curriculum or a teaching strategy for your subject.

5
Starting with the Audio Track and Audacity

If you have a script and you are not going to appear in the video, or a large part of it, there is a real advantage to recording the audio in Audacity, a free and relatively simple to use audio software package.  The free download link can be found in the resources section of this video

6
How to use Green Screen in Keynote and Chroma Key in Screenflow to great effect!

Here I want to share with you how you can use the Chroma Key filter in Screenflow or Camtasia to really add some interest and entertainment to your lectures.

7
How you can use background images or videos to enhance your lectures

Background images and video can also be used, without Greenscreen, to good effect to make your lectures and videos more impactful.

It is important that your audience feels that you understand them and their problem.  You need to establish empathy if they are to feel that you are on their side.

3
3. Deepen The Experience with your Viewer

Now you need to draw them in deeper and to show them that you really have been where they are now.  If they don't believe this, your pitch won't be credible.

4
4. Moving from Frustration to Fear

Now you need to make them feel uncomfortable, make sure that they are not happy with where they are today.  This is going to be a big motivator to get them to take action later.

9
9. Now - Take Away The RISK!

This is important. The transaction must be riskless from their point of view, so you have to provide a guarantee.
