Scanning and Video Editing
Laura Blankenship September 7th, 2007
We’ve gotten new video equipment for the New Media Lab and have it connected to all the machines in the lab. We’re awaiting three converters, but we have two stations set up to import video from nearly any source. Once your video is imported, you can export it to multiple formats suitable for the web or for uploading to Blackboard or even for downloading to an iPod. We also have the ability to burn videos to DVDs that will play on any DVD player.
The scanners are also ready to go. As usual, they are a little quirky, but we’re working out the kinks. Right now, they’re all perfectly functional, but not all integrated with the Adobe products that most people like to scan into: Photoshop and Acrobat. You can still scan in your document, but it won’t be imported into Acrobat or Photoshop automatically. If you need to do any editing, you’ll have to open them in those programs after scanning. We hope to have this problem worked out soon.
