The Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Studio is a user-friendly space available to all UOW staff for creating educational videos using high-quality recording equipment.

The studio is designed to support a guided, start-to-finish workflow, including: 

• generating a title card to encourage shorter, more purposeful videos  
• adjusting the electronic desk to frame yourself correctly in the shot so you can present comfortably
• recording with a high-quality camera, lighting and microphone
• annotating or drawing with a stylus on content such as PDFs, PowerPoint, or digital whiteboards 
• switching seamlessly between picture-in-picture, full-screen presenter or full-screen shared material 
• using the optional teleprompter functionality (available on request) 
• exporting the video as an MP4 file, ready to upload to EchoVideo and embed within subject content
