Pulp

# Demo Presenter Notes

Presentations are 5 min or less video of something accomplished that affects Pulp, a pulp Plugin, or the Pulp community. Presenters can be anyone from the community.

## Deciding to present

There is a call for presenters sent to the pulp-dev@redhat.com email address whenever a demo is being organized. It has instructions on how to signup which is putting your name, nick, and title onto an etherpad.

All presentations are pre-recorded

## Demo length

All videos must be under 5 minutes. The ideal demo length being about 3 - 4 minutes based on the [Wistia report](https://wistia.com/blog/does-length-matter-it-does-for-video-2k12-edition).

## Recording a Video

Typically a tool like [simplescreenrecorder](http://www.maartenbaert.be/simplescreenrecorder/) or [recordmydesktop](http://recordmydesktop.sourceforge.net/about.php) is used to record both audio and video at the same time. [OpenBroadcasterSoftware](https://obsproject.com/) is also a good choice, but more heavyweight and fully featured than those two. Whatever you use, make sure that you:

1\. Increase the font! Whatever you think is readable, make it a lot bigger.  

2\. Check your audio level. We can't fix audio that is recorded too soft or too loud when we playback the video.

## Testing your Video

All video playback happens in Firefox. Ensure that a normal Firefox browser can natively play your video.

## Sending your video:

1\. Come up with a title that is 50 chars or less.  

2\. Come up with a description. It can be one or more paragraphs.  

3\. Send the recorded video as an attachment, the title, and the description to bbouters@redhat.com. Alternatively, you can send a link to download the video file from. By submitting a video you are acknowledging you are the copyright owner of that video content and you agree to grant Pulp the right to broadcast and playback that content.
