Recommendations
- This document focuses on Kaltura Capture, but we generally recommend TechSmith Camtasia (newly available to instructors and staff on 8/28/20) over Kaltura Capture for instructors and staff at UW-Madison. It can more easily make longer recordings, allows you to do more editing and is an easy-to-use and more powerful screen capture, and webcam capture tool.
- Users who want to record slideshows with audio narration can also use Powerpoint itself (More instructions for: Windows, Mac). Powerpoint allows you to more easily update your narrated slideshows - you can not easily update a Kaltura Capture video later. In Powerpoint you can delete the audio for an individual slide, re-record and export your presentation as a MP4 and upload that to Kaltura MediaSpace or share the file itself. Kaltura Capture is more for if you need to record yourself using software or guiding your viewer through a website, etc. - something beyond narrated Powerpoint slides.You can see other tools for comparison in Learn@UW - Which should I use? Options to create instructional videos.
- Consider whether you need to record both your screen and your webcam - especially during the COVID-19 situation during which Kaltura is seeing unprecedented usage. Captures that include both use twice as much data, take twice as long to upload and process. Consider recording a short intro video with your webcam and another video with just your screen.
- Kaltura Capture is a good choice if you need to record yourself using software or walking your students through a website for example - something Powerpoint can't do. We recommend that you keep your recordings reasonably short (4-6 minutes):
- Shorter recordings reduce the cognitive load on the viewer;
- Lapses in the viewer's attention become more frequent with longer videos;
- Updating material is much easier if it is more modular - updating a 5 minute video is a lot easier than a 50 minute video;
- The editing tools in Kaltura MediaSpace don't allow fine-grained edits - especially on longer videos;
- Longer recordings tend to encounter more frequent technical issues. It's less painful if you do happen to encounter an issue on a 5 minute video to redo it than if you do on a 50 minute video. Kaltura Capture is a newer tool and in development.
