Recently set course of nearly 20 hours of video recording done fast, too fast to work from home a half months. In this protracted war, summed up from the practice a set of effective methods to overcome the problem, that is, "the task dismantling." Here to talk about my story.
Ever recorded instructional video friends may know, this is an extremely time-consuming task, especially trying to video recording is good enough, it takes more time and effort is doubly growth. Just Getting Started, recording a half-hour course may take twenty-three days or even longer.
The whole process includes: gathering information, sorting, screening, scheduling, verification, preparation of PPT, recording (N times), the clip (N times), synthesis, de-noising, export, compress, upload, review ......
Removing portions of the audit platform, now the ratio of output to record video output is about eight hours 20-30 minute sessions. 8 hours of work here is not the time, but effective working time. 20 hours of course, about the time the cost of inputs multiplied by the multiplier 20-30.
In order to calculate the data is not hard to express, but want to say: the face of daunting task similar to how we should do? If I had known that such a large amount of work, may simply not be started. Back, quit is the choice of most people.
The following are specific experience and growth process.
At first no experience, each lesson plan content of about 20 minutes. The result is the middle of ideas once broken, jammed, interfered with the surrounding environment, we must start again. So 20 minutes 20 minutes repeat it, feeling really mad.
And later we learned to pause and blank. If there is a problem in the recording or pause, or blank, waiting for post-editing. This eliminates the need for repeated recording, efficiency improved a lot.
But the fundamental problem is not resolved, but most of the "oral" questions to the "Clip" section. Because stuck, more white space, clip time you have to double. Under normal circumstances, the clip is N times the time course of the market. Once the quality is not, time is growing exponentially.
Then, we continue to improve, split for the theoretical part. After preparing the finished material, first try to repeat once again, almost to the first record audio, and audio clips. Finally the content of each page and the PPT control audio, composite video.
Thus, the record for the theoretical part, after the split, efficiency has improved a lot. In particular clips when there is no two-way audio and content constraints, save a lot of time.
But for the actual operating portion, the method described above no implementation. So, is this still has been plagued by.
"Keep Thinking", stop thinking. "Life is like archery, dream like Jian Bazi, even Jian Bazi can not find where, what bow you use every day?"
In order to get rid of the mechanical clip, has been constantly thinking about how to improve. Until a certain moment a sudden epiphany: Why do I have 20 minutes to talk about it? Users really want to do so? Lecturers must be true?
Imagine, if you will explain with more knowledge, not only increases the difficulty of lecturers, reduce the quality of the course. Meanwhile, learners, learning time is too long (contains pauses to think and operating time) can cause stress. In addition, if the video is too long, back then looking for a certain knowledge, it will become very troublesome.
Thus, the strategy changed, the contents of a large chapter, split, split, split again. Refined to be able to finish a few minutes, down to each section is a separate knowledge points. In this way, they say it is not so hard, the number of outputs, but also a sense of accomplishment. Courses sounds more relaxed, but also skip some chapters directly to content of interest, without missing anything. Really it has multiple purposes.
So, after thinking through exploration, discovery is indeed effective way split.
Perhaps, these classical methods, a lot of experienced lecturers are in use. But as I was out of line, only through constant practice, thinking, groping to get. Now you see this article, you are lucky.
After more than a month, finally recorded video courses to enhance efficiency several times, even to achieve standardized operations.
At the same time, it has also been set can be applied to the experience and ideas on other things: whether it hard to do, as long as it's fine enough anatomy, even down to every moment of every day can be completed, it is basically equivalent to a success.
Wrote here, I thought, "Foolish Old Man." Like stupid of me talent, and this is the best way.
The above reasoning might have read in a long time ago, seen or heard, but bowed to act only when really feel its power. Finally, to give you a poem:
The ancients exhaustive knowledge force, the young old effort into the beginning.
Paper come Zhongjue know this practice is essential.
