In 2006, TesTeachers Online became the first online class to use video technology to fully recreate the classroom experience.
In 2011, they came to us to help make those videos.
TesTeachers is an online preparation course for insurance and securities exams. With eight securities courses and twenty insurance courses, TesTeachers provides a valuable alternative to classroom-based learning.
This shoot, containing over eighteen hours of footage, took us three days in our Mesa studio to complete.
Using a specially modified television, the instructor is able to “write” on it like a whiteboard, and using a program called Camtasia, the contents of the board are stored and can be used in editing to show what was written on the board, without showing the instructor in the way of it.
The total length of the course we shot was about eighteen hours, so each day we shot six hours of footage. Once the shot starts, our job is fairly simple. The instructor simply teaches to the camera as if they are teaching to a class full of students, with occasional breaks.
Now that we have all of our footage, we’ll sit down and edit it together into manageable chunks for the students, which will then be distributed to the students of the class.
