* The entire webpage has to look professional.
That will give you plenty of study and preparation work for the study week. There will be a graded progress report at the end of in week 910, so don't leave it till later.
= Filming =
Make sure as the lecture goes on that you keep the camera centered on the subject. That's going to be the speaker but may include other things: for example if the speaker is writing something or pointing to something - that should be in the video as well. Don't worry too much about making sure that the text on the projector display is readable, you'll be dealing with that later in the assignment.
 
= Editing =
 
In this project the main result of editing will be removing pauses that don't need to be in an online lecture. This would be realtively simple in a short video but will take a lot of work for a video this size.
 
= Webpage =
 
Same as for assignment 1 - you will need to find a template for your page so that the result looks professional. Don't forget to set the titles correctly and remove links that you aren't using.
 
On the index page you should have:
 
* The team number and all the team members' names.
* Where you got the website template.
* Links to any code samples written by someone else that you used in the assignment. You may use online resources or Chris's demo code, but you have to be very clear which code you didn't write yourself or else it's plagiarism.
 
On the video page there will be a title, the name of the presenter, a short description of the lecture, and two main components:
 
# The video itself, in an HTML5 video tag. Have the controls showing but don't start playing it automatically.
# Next to it (probably to the right, though I'll leave that detail to you, as long as it works it's good) you'll need a "Content" area, where you'll show the slides associated with the lecture.
 
== Video ==
 
This time you have to make sure your video works not only in Firefox but also in IE. Just the latest versions. That means your video will have to be in two formats. Please do test it on both browsers.
 
Obviously this only applies to the final, edited video, not the original one you filmed.
 
Space is a very important consideration. Though you should be filming at the highest quality your camera and storage space allows - that will be too much for real-time video on the web. Assume a client download speed of 300kbps, and calculate how much space that means your video can take, based on how long it is.
 
You don't want to have bad quality though. So you should have a native size at least 640 pixels wide and make sure you can clearly see the speaker's face.
