How to Create a CampusCast
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
Welcome to this quick guide on how to create a campus cast directly from your admin dashboard step one go to the top right corner and click create. Mhm. Mhm. Then select record a video message. This is going to pull up our screen recording software there. You want to select your recording option, you can choose just your camera just your screen or for the video plus screen option you're going to be asked which screen you actually want recorded. If you have multiple desk cuts, Wait for the 5 2nd countdown. Okay? And when you see the pulsing red circle, start recording your message. Just for example in this video I'm sharing my calendar link. This could even be a PowerPoint presentation that you have pulled up on your second monitor. Yeah when you're done with your message stop the recording by clicking back on that red circle. Once you have stopped you're going to have the opportunity to preview your message. If you're good to go and you like the message, click on the blue checkmark and it'll take you through to the next screen where you'll give your message a new title for any message that's going to go directly to a student. I recommend using their first name in the video title. You also have the option to take a new thumbnail image directly from your web cam. So you know smile and wave maybe a thumbs up and then you'll see that new image copy and paste the image plus the U. R. L. By clicking in the lower corner there in the blue button and that's what you're going to paste into the body of your email. Yeah all of your video messages are going to be saved to your screen cast library accessible right from your admin dashboard. Mhm click on the orange sharing icon to copy and paste the U. R. L. If you ever need to go back and use that message again all of your video messages are going to be delivered on the video landing page that you've configured with your schools branding elements. This is how the recipient will actually see the message on the other side. Yeah all of your calls to action that you've configured will also display on all of your video messages. Some ideas for when and where you could use campus cast include nurturing prospects all throughout your tunnel, opening this tool up to your admissions counselors and recruiters and having them follow up with really high intent leads from events and other places. Turning the keys over to the department head or faculty member to welcome newly admitted students that you're hoping are going to convert to enroll students or letting student services or your registrar's office create how to videos for things like how to enroll in classes or how to apply for housing. All of these are great ideas and you're certainly not limited to this short list. We hope you'll find some creative uses for campus cast.
