Steps for Uploading/Recording

Log onto Canvas and open the EcoHack 2022 homepage by clicking on the course #62543.

Three ways to upload: Panopto video tab – on left hand side menu
1. If you have a pre-recorded video – Click “Create” and “Upload Media” to upload from your computer into the correct folder.

If you upload files here, make sure they are named as TITLE.YOURNAME.ECOHACK2022

2. If you do not have a pre-recorded video – Click “Create” and choose either Panopto for Window/Mac (requires download) or “Panopto Capture”.

1. If you choose Panopto for Windows/Mac, you will have to download Panopto software onto computer if you have not already
2. Click “Open Panopto” and ‘Open Panopto Recorder’
When Panopto software is open, make sure the Folder - is set to “EcoHack 2022 -assignments” and give your presentation a name (Title.YourName.EcoHack2022). Make sure the “Webcast” box in the upper right-hand corner is UNCHECKED so you don’t accidentally record live.
Adjust settings – video, audio, and quality, including Capture Computer Audio if required. Check your Secondary Sources (choices are PowerPoint and/or up to three screens, depending on what you need. If you have a research poster, make it full screen on a secondary screen).
Click “Record” button on left-hand side of pop-up window.
Panopto will now begin recording. (Make sure your poster or PowerPoint presentation in full-screen view so the audience can see your whole poster and record your presentation.)
Click “Stop” when you are finished presenting.
Give your presentation a name if you have not already. You can reject this recording and re-record until you are satisfied.
Click “Upload.”
When your upload is complete, go back into the Canvas course, navigate to the “Panopto Video” tab (if you haven’t already) or refresh the page, and you should see your video in the empty space as seen below! (You may also see others’ videos depending on when you upload).
You can also edit your video within Panopto by using the green scissor “Cut” button in the Panopto editor. Highlight the area of the video/presentation recording that you would like to delete and press the “Cut” button. Press “Play” to make sure the edited video starts at the spot you would like it to.
If you’d rather not download Panopto and want to use Panopto Capture, and record in your browser, that also works. Click Panopto Capture. It has smaller functionality, but it will work.
Once you are done recording, click save, name your recording, and your work will be ready to present and for the judges to review your work!
