Video Production for Streaming

Here are the handouts from my recent presesentation at Streaming Media West in LA. Here’s the description.

Producing top-quality Web video involves multiple skills, including setting the scene (choosing your backgrounds, clothing, and positioning); lighting; shooting the video; scaling and preprocessing the video to the target resolution; and finally, encoding. This seminar illustrates each step with real-world examples and checklists for encoding into Flash and Windows Media formats. It will outline procedures and describe how producing for the Web differs from producing for broadcast, DVD, and other more traditional distribution outlets.
