Zoom Webinar Checklist - Set-up, Present, and Record as a Guest Speaker

In this post, I document how I Set up, Present, and Record a Zoom Webinar, hosted by someone else. I will have to show my face, my Google Slides, and my iPhone or Android Phone Display. 

This Saturday will be the actual presentation to about 500 people. Tomorrow morning is the dry run. 

CHALLENGE - I want to record my presentation and not the participants. I don't want to record on Zoom because it shows the attendees... anyway I have no access as a non-host. 

Here is every little thing I did to set up the dry run... in the form of a checklist that I can use in the future to eliminate stress. 

Items Required...

  1. Turn on Yolobox Pro and Switch to Monitor Mode.  
  2. Connect the Face Camera (Panasonic Lumix FZ2500) to Yolobox Pro. 
  3. Attach wireless mic (Lensgo 348C) 
  4. Connect earphones to the Audio Monitor output jack on Yolobox Pro. 
  5. Connect the Macbook to Yolobox Pro via USB to HDMI adapter. 
    • Open and Play Google Slides File.

  7. Mirror iPhone screen to the MacBook using Quicktime. 
    • Open Quicktime > Select New Movie Recording.  
    • Set Camera and Microphone to iPhone. 
    • Slide up the volume by about 30% to hear the iPhone. 
  8. Set up green-screen effect on Yolobox Pro.
    • Place the Face over the Computer Display. 
    • Set Face Camera to manual mode. 
    • Fix white balance and exposure. Set focus in auto Single Center mode.
  9. Connect Windows Laptop to AC power socket. 
  10. Connect the internet to the Laptop via the USB-C to Ethernet adapter. 
  11. Connect headphones to the Laptop - Logitech H111.

    • Turn on USB-C Out on Yolobox Pro.
  15. Start or join a Zoom Meeting 1 hour earlier. 
    • Select UVC Camera. 


Plan B:
  • If Macbook fails, then Switch to Windows.
  • If Google Slides fail, then Switch to the PDF version. 
  • If iPhone fails, then switch to Samsung.  
  • If the Internet fails, then postpone or cancel.

Side Note:

Brief - We are intending to have 2 speakers for the virtual webinar and would like to invite you to do a 1-1.5 hour session on How to edit videos using mobile applications.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer.

FCPX - The storage device "Macintosh HD" is almost full

The message "The storage device Macintosh HD is almost full" appeared when I was editing a video with Final Cut Pro X on my new Apple Macbook Air M1.   Final Cut Pro Taking up Too Much Space  My Macbook Air M1 had only 256GB of storage onboard. My raw footage was only about 9GB. The biggest file was the FCPX project files itself at about 140GB! How did 9GB become 140GB? There is not enough disk space for my Final Cut Pro. Why Is Final Cut Pro Taking up So Much Storage Final Cut Pro renders files in high-quality media so that we can playback our edits smoothly direct from the timeline.  It creates multiple HUGE high-quality files of our footage in the background.   It is a good thing, so as to maintain high-quality final edited video, BUT not a good thing for a laptop with only 256GB. How to Clear Disk Space on Final Cut Pro The question is how to delete the rendered files in FCPX? 1. Select the library in FCPX...  2. Go to Files > Delete Generated L...
