“Rent-a-Videohiwi”

What is included in “Rent-a-Videohiwi”?

An experienced student assistant of the recording team is going to record a video of your presentation with equipment provided by us. The assistant can also, if you want, handle the editing and provision of the video.

We offer two variants for the recording of your presentation:

1. Classical video production with a high-resolution HD-camcorder: The recording is focused on the person presenting, while slide presentations can also be filmed with the camera.

2. Recording of the slide presentation as a screen recording (screencast): We provide you a laptop with recording software (Camtasia or Panopto) for your presentation. You receive a video of the slides including any annotations. If necessary, a video of the person presenting can be added.
