Tips for Creating Audio Visual Resources

Audio Recording Top Tips

  • Record in a quiet place without background noise.
  • Speak with a slow clear voice.
  • Find out preferred format e.g. CD, audio file, digital recording.
  • Clearly label the recording including details of the recording and recording length.
  • Make sure the recorded version matches with the print so people can use the two together if they wish.

DVD Recording Top Tips

  • Record the DVD against a simple non distracting background.
  • Look directly at the camera and read the text in a slow clear voice.
  • Find out the preferred format of video e.g. DVD, file on a USB stick or posted to online on sites such as Bambuser.
  • Clearly label the recording including details of the recording and recording length.
