Show, don't tell.¶

None of this has been tested, it's all just conjecture at this point

We're hoping to put together a "confreaks in a box" type solution for all usergroups, *camps, etc to use to help get the content out.

The theory is you grab the 3 bits of input separately and you have a fairly decent shot at putting them together into something that actually sounds good.

Basic Requirements:

1. Video Camera (tape the presenter)
2. Mic (audio from the presenter)
3. VGA Recording (capture code/slides/live coding, etc)

Video Camera¶

Thinking something cheap and easy like the flip on a mini tripod. Might want something with removable media so you can swap out if you have multiple presentations, or presentations run long.

• 60 minute flip
• 2 hour flip
• Tripod

Mic¶

Everyone for podcasting claims this snowball mic is the best

VGA (or DVI, I guess) Recording¶

Something to record the video stream:

Something to split the video stream:

Post processing¶

Trying to put it all back together

Storage / Distribution¶

Where to host, how to host, how much it might cost, etc
