CETL Green Screen Studio

Located on the Clearwater campus, the CETL Green Screen Studio is available to all SPC faculty. We can assist you with the creation of short introductory or supplemental instructional videos for your courses and help you edit some of the videos you may have already recorded on your computer or smart devices. Green screen technology inserts background images and slideshows into the video as you are being recorded on camera. Finalized videos recorded at the CETL Green Screen Studio are sent to SPC faculty via OneDrive.

• Walk-ins: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
• Reservations: Monday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
• Each video should cover a different topic and not exceed 10 minutes in total length.
• Please remember not to wear GREEN clothing and accessories for your video.
• It is highly recommended that you provide a slideshow or images to help you with your presentation. A teleprompter is available if you prefer to read from a script.
• You may invite students to join you as long as they provide written consent to be recorded and you accompany them during the entirety of the video recording session.

Tips to create a great video

• Write a script or at least an outline.
• Write in as conversational and as friendly a tone as you can.
• Use short sentences
• Write for the ear — not for the eye (most people will only hear video narration so you can be informal and use contractions).
• Reading your script aloud helps you hear where you need to make changes.
• Rehearse and practice before recording.
• Don’t worry about a little mistake. It can humanize your video.

We are looking forward to help you make your video projects come true! To schedule a visit, request assistance with a video, or simply ask any questions that you may have, please e-mail Marco Capobianco at capobianco.marco@spcollege.edu today!
