There are alternatives to recording in the classroom:
- There are UD Capture Studios available (self service, lightboard, green screen, learning studios) or UMS studios in East Hall, Mitchell Hall, etc.
- Faculty teaching remotely can use Zoom to make a recording.
Zoom cloud recordings are added to My Media in Canvas and can be published to Media Gallery for students. - Re-use previously recorded content by publishing it from My Media to Media Gallery.
- Upload other relevant video content faculty may have to My Media and publish it to Media Gallery.
