One of my favorite features in iPresent Producer 1.0 is the ability to go into “Full Screen” mode when creating a PowerPoint based audio or video presentation. This feature is particularly useful when, as a presenter you will be giving a “live” presentation in front of a group of people, but you’d also like to capture it, using iPresent Producer. Here’s how it works:
Once you’ve selected a PowerPoint file that you’d like to capture with iPresent Producer, you’ll be on the “Capture Screen”:
The “Capture Screen” consists of a “Slide Window”, and a small “Recording Control Window”. I’m not going to go into all the features on this screen, but basically this is how you record audio/video and synchronize your “slides” into a rich media presentation. Ok, so now if you were presenting off of your laptop through an LCD projector onto a screen, the typical use case is to open your PPT and click View Slideshow. Well, with iPresent Producer it is very much the same. Once on the “Capture Screen”, you simply click the “Options” button, and then click “Full Screen Mode”, as seen below:
This will display PowerPoint’s built in “Slide Show” mode along with the iPresent Producer “Recording Control Window”, like so:
To begin recording audio, video and all slide changes - simply click Record. You can minimize the “Recording Control Window” and navigate through your presentation as you normally would (using mouse clicks, clicking <ENTER> or <SPACEBAR>, etc.) Every action you perform is automatically captured and synchronized to the audio/video that is being captured. Your audience will only see your slides projected onto the screen. Once the presentation is over you’ll have a fully indexed archived version that you can post to the web for those that couldn’t make it to the actual presentation or for anyone to review it further.
