Introduction and Copyright : When posting material on their ecampus course websites, instructors should consider copyright and intellectual property laws and follow Educational Fair Use guidelines. Video clips that fall within these guidelines may be made accessible as links from Ecampus course websites or compiled on a CD or DVD. Instructional Technology Consultants (ITCs) can help you produce clips from videotapes, miniDV tapes, or DVDs.
Processing video clips using Apple's iMovie and iDVD:
(Note: Settings provided on the Saving edited video page are also useful for QuickTime Pro and other video editing software.)
- Importing video -- In the ITC lab, you can import a clip from a VHS, DVD, VCD, mini-DV,
or already digitized movie file (e.g. .mov, .avi, etc.).
- Editing video -- Selecting excerpts and trimming video clips.
- Saving edited video -- In the ITC lab, you can save your clips on a CD or DVD.
Full-length video and videocasting: For digital delivery of full-length movies, recorded performances and other UCLA Media Library-owned material, we refer instructors to the Video Furnace pilot program offered by OID/UCLA Media Lab. If you're interested in arranging to videocast your course lectures, contact OID's Bruincast service.
