Director’s Workflow - Day of Shoot (Webcam)
1. Create a NEW Session & Go To Room (do not use the same room you used for your tech test)
2. Invite Collaborators (Optional)
3. Turn on Admin Feed Recording (Optional - to record yourself)
4. Call your subject to start, on the call
- Confirm they are ready & in the correct location
- Confirm they force quit any video conferencing applications
- Send the email invitation from OpenReel Invite Webcam Subject to Room
- Confirm they are opening the link in the previously tested browser
5. Subject pairs to room
- Confirm Upload speed is >3MB/s
- Confirm you and the subject can see and hear each other, then hang up the phone
6. Remind Subject: Do not X out
- Remind the subject they cannot quit or X out of the browser until they receive confirmation from you that all of the files have uploaded
7. Frame Webcam Shot (Camera should be at or just about eye level)
8. IMPORTANT: TEST RECORDING
- Record a 10-second test of the subject, let the video upload
- Play video to confirm video & audio quality
9. Record All Footage
- TIP: Optimize Upload with shorter video clips: Stop recording at natural pauses (typically in between questions) and start a new recording - the video files will upload during the shoot and reduce time spent uploading at end of the shoot
10. Upload Footage
- IMPORTANT: DO NOT tell subject to exit out of browser until all videos have finished uploading
11. Download Footage locally to your computer or share it with the editor
