Recording
Recording Devices
Mobile phones are a great option for recording video. We highly recommend the free Teleprompter App by Joe Allen for iOS devices.
The Media Center also has many recording devices to choose from. For edTPA, we highly recommend the Zoom Cameras.
Recording Yourself
- Use a tripod to keep your camera steady.
- Create a dry-run test so that you can test the placement of the camera and check the quality of the recording.
- Consider using your Smartphone so that you can flip the camera and watch yourself while you record.
- We highly recommend the free Teleprompter App by Joe Allen for iOS devices.
- Make sure you are in a well-lit location.
- Be sure to check your attire and appearance.
- Be sure to compare your attire to your recording backdrop/background to make sure that you don't blend in or clash.
- Record in a quiet location.
Recording your Classroom
- Be sure the camera is stable and has a clear angle of you and your students.
- Test out the mic beforehand to be sure that it picks up audio from across the room or gym.
- Be natural and remember that you can always re-record.
- Try to record over the amount of footage you will need, but not past 1 hour (this will give you a workable file that isn't too large).
- The clip(s) should include interactions between you and your students as well as your responses to student comments, questions, and needs.
- The clip(s) can feature either the whole class or a targeted group of students within the class.
- Both you and your students should be visible and clearly heard on the video clip(s) you submit.
- Advise your cooperating/master teacher and the principal at your school of your need to video record lessons.
- Before you record your video, permission must be obtained from the parents/guardians of your students and from adults who appear in the video. Any students whose parents/guardians have not provided permission.

Editing your Videos
There are a few tools you can use to edit your videos. We love YouTube because it is quick and easy.
- Quickly remove portions of the video you've already uploaded to YouTube, using YouTube's Enhancements Tool.
- Combine multiple clips already uploaded to YouTube, and add transitions between clips or scenes, using YouTube's Video Editor.
Submitting for edTPA? You can use the YouTube Video Editor, as well. Simply use a tool post-edit to download an mp4 of your video for submissions. Try:
Need to compress your video because it is too big?
- Go to http://handbrake.fr and download the most recent version for your personal computer.
You can also use products found on both PC and Mac machines:
