This is so relevant! Thank you! This is so helpful as all schools go online/homeschool. This info will help me through my learning curve so I can still help my kidlets with math. I plan to investigate and research these products tomorrow. I hope you and yours are well. Again, thank you.
Notability for iPad is also great. You can export your noes after as a PDF, which is great for when you are creating instructional videos where the students get extra value from having a printout to go along with the video.
Thanks! Great advice. I was looking for screen capture and OBS seems great...I am downloading it next. For PhotoShop replacement there is also GIMP which is Free/open source. About microphone, the Snowball Blue ICE is a cardioid-only microphone, which is directional, hence avoiding background noise. There is another version about $10 more that adds "Omni" recording i.e. from all directions. That version also has a more stringent cardioid capture for more noisy situations.
Thank you Parker, I’m looking forward to start my math RU-vid channel this week and I will start by what I learnt in your video. Will let you now how it’s goes!
This video definitely helped me in the start of my channel. Math video's are very crucial right now... Good luck on the journey! Let me know if I can answer any questions... I started a few months ago! So I've definitely ran into some problems I had to work through in the beginning!
I have an iPad Pro and Pencil. Vittle Pro by Qrayon and have loved it. It made creating math video tutorials super fast and easy. Just open you slide, PDF or picture in Vittle and you can record your voice while marking up the document with you pen/stylus or finger. It saved my bacon when school went all online last spring.
Hi Parker... I got what I was looking for after watching this. You mentioned everything especially for ipad users including the screen recording and wacom. Many thanks....
Great advice. I use blender for OBS for recording the screen, blender for video editing and adding text or effects. Both open source software that work very well. For writing, I have a wacom tablet (the basic one) nothing fancy. Struggling a bit with the voice atm but working on improving it. Oh and for drawing, I'm using autodesk sketchbook and sometimes krita and powerpoint and ALL ARE FREE and open source.
Could you please show a complete video showing how you created a sal like video. I have encountered this problem that when writting on paint and opting for the full view of screen it is not possible to write using the tab.
Hi Peter, thanks for the video. It's really helpful. I've used SmoothDraw before to make videos for my students in Biochemistry. I've downloaded SmoothDraw 4 now on my laptop. I notice the side bar is different to yours and it's very small. Have you seen this before? Also when I save the black background template to the Desktop and then try running it it doesnt know how to open it. Trying to find the Smoothdraw exe file but its not easy to find. Wondering if you have some idea about that? many thanks, Anna
Hey im considering between getting an ipad mini and surface pro which would be primarily used for teaching purposes. I plan to record and edit those videos too, i know ipad has a good ecosystem but the surface allows more storage and functionality with its desktop thing working for it. Cheaper wacom tablets arent available where i live or i would've gone for that.
Great video, an eyeopener too, Ive started taking online classes and using mobile + cisco webex +shcreenshare + whiteboard for android to take my classes but with a mobile its very tough to cross 6 lines per page in a whiteboard, I have a samsung tab a 8.0 2019 model but yet to find a compatible stylus pen or s pen that works fine with a tab..can you lead a helping hand on this? I tried wacom pad in a laptop screen but always arriving at diagonal lines of text than a neat text as its tough for me to write on wacom and reflecting a better presentation on a laptop screen..
This helped a lot, thanks! I would like to know how did you make this video, how can you switch from external camera to screen? What program, tools ect. do I need to do something simillar to your video? Do you have a tutorial about how to do that? Too many questions, sorry! :-) Thanks for your help.
For just getting started, are there free options that can get someone new to RU-vid started until finances allow for the purchases that you recommended?
Here's a quick tip: If the only thing you have to draw with is your mouse and you don't want to blow a ton of money on a writing tablet, all you have to do is turn down the DPI (sensitivity) on your mouse. After a few hours of practice, it gets pretty easy.
Hi, this is a great video. How do I use the Wacom intuos tablet with Smoothdraw3 (live mode and using the colors in Smoothdraw)? I can do this with Inkscape but want to try with Smoothdraw! Thank you so much!
Hi Parker, great video. How about the writing, the smooth and fast writing? Seems to be software generated and not handwritten as Med Cram here on RU-vid also has the same style.
Hi Parker, great video, really useful! Does the size of the Wacom tablet matter much? I see there are a lot of ~4'' x 7'' tablets that are pretty affordable but I'm wondering if that poses much of a restriction in terms of writing space.
Can't we use ms word or ms one note instead of photoshop or krita without compromising quality of online teaching? What is the advantage of using photoshop?
Hi Mr.Parker..nice video you made.it help to new beginners.i too one of them.thanks for helping us.iam a maths teacher recently started videos in youtube.this might be helpful to me
Thanks for the idea, Parker. I'm using wacom+powerpoint (black background) to teach pharmaceutical calculation in my uni. It's good enough, but I want to make a better material.
Ok, like so many others, i am getting ready for virtual teaching. Do I need the pen AND the tablet? Or does the tablet come with a pen usually? I am confused...sorry! Thank you for posting your video!
hello! could you please verify if my understanding is correct? you draw in a window inside the Krita program's main window, and use OBS to capture this inner window and record the audio? thanks so much!
@@kaninepete thanks so much for your quick reply! really appreciate this! I've been searching for how to make this kind of explanation videos and finally found yours, yay 👍👍👍
Hey Parker, does Wacom tablet allow you to see a cursor on the laptop screen of where your pen is moving or we have to wildly guess if we move our pen away and then need to write near where we left of?
It just looks like your normal cursor. It will show up on screen when you hover the pen above the surface, so you can line up your strokes before touching down.
Hi Parker, thanks for the video. Im making math videos and will be recording using Explain Everything on my Ipad. But it would be nice to get a little square on me writing on the screen. Any tips for that?? I'm thinking I'll have to have 2 recordings and overlay them in a video editing software.
Hi,, the video is really helpfull. I already try it. Actually i have a problem. The movement of the pen is not recorded, and i need that when i explain something inside of the board. So how to make the pen is recorded?
I downloaded obs studio software and Microsoft whiteboard. I want to record a demo video of me teaching using a whiteboard with obs studio. But I keep getting a black screen. I have a laptop with AMD processor and ATI Radeon gpu. Any advice on how to get obs to read Microsoft whiteboard?
Yes, I recorded with the Blue Snowball Ice that's in the shot. I think I increased the volume a little in Premeire, but nothing too intense. I just turned the AC off and stuff like that.
Hey can we integrate ink2Go with powerpoint? All I am looking for power point animations in my teaching but its slide show does not offer whiteboard tools which are quite handy...any suggestion?
@@kaninepete No it is not working fine. If you have tried then you must have realized that it does not integrate with slide show of power point. Anyways, if you have any better suggestion I would love to hear. And thanks a lot for your reply. I really do appreciate it.
@@kaninepete thanks so much for the quick response. What about screen capture and adding video? I guess I could use the screen capture already available on the iPad pro, but should I record the audio separately? I have the same mic you have, but haven't used it yet.
If you're using windows 10, there's a default program called windows game bar which allows you to take screenshots and make video recordings of your screen. You can google 'windows game bar' to see how to use it
I prefer to use an Apple pencil with an iPad, mirroring to my Win 10 computer which is running an app called Reflector 3. I run a meeting in Microsoft Teams and record the video there. Not great quality, but very small file sizes!
Hi there! I tried the same through camatasia..while video was being processed, fan creates lot of sound which comes into video, what we can do for that? Can we use stylus somhow like through touchpad to write on laptop?
For the fan audio, I recommend getting a headset. The further the microphone is from the computer, the less you will hear the fan. I don’t know of a way to use a pen on a trackpad, sorry.
@@kaninepete thanks for quick reply, fan inside the laptop, it takes load while processing, it feeds so much noise into video...I think because of lesser RAM of 3GB...
Hi Parker, great video! I just acquired a wacom tablet for my online classes during COVID-19 outbreak. But when I write the letters size are bigger on the screen? Do you hoy how can I adjust the ratio between the tablet and the screen to make the laters smaller?
There may be a way to adjust that setting in the Wacom driver application. Typically, it is set up so that the usable space on the tablet matches up to the entire screen. The easiest way to fix, is just to write smaller.
Please help me Parker , I also have a youtube channel.i want to make electrical animation video using ipad or windows. I want to JR ELECTRIC SCHOOL type video. Please help me, how can I do this
@@kaninepete , thanks for your response. This probably isn't what you set out to do so maybe asking you isn't the right thing to do. I apologise in advance. But if you could, could you make a video on how a video can be made with the narrator on the screen with the PPT slides in one section, a "whiteboard" in another and a transcript/clickable content (based on timeline in another)? I suppose there is some software that can make this possible but I can't find any.
I have a video about using PowerPoint to record your screen. It’s the most recent upload on this channel. I’m not sure if it can capture your face at the same time, but it can capture slides and live drawings for sure. If you need more help, let me know!
Please give attention to this video .. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ok-1n924KC8.html .. the speaker is using some tools.. but, not sure about what they could be .. from my observation, he is using a mike, which is tangled to his shirt.. he is writing on something, could be a pentablet with screen.. certainly a high end camera to record.. but, the point that i'm missing is about the transparent display of his writings over the video .. Can you guess, about what would be that he is using !!??
