I just had a go at Mogulus, & wow... that thing's quite complex. And I'm (sorta) used to iMovie HD & the like. There's nothing on my channel yet; I was just trying to get to grips with using it to create a short bit of movie via the webcam. Fiddly as heck, frankly. I can't really recommend using a webcam/real-time web recording thing like that if you want pro results. There's too much to do between presenting the thing & producing it at the same time. Better to at least get someone to film it on a camcorder. This rather explains what I was on about on Sarah's blog earlier. As a quick & dirty, get it down & get it out kind of thing, yeah, it's great (free too), but I recommend the following if you're going to use Mogulus:
- Don't use the live broadcast / record functionality from a webcam
- Do get someone to operate the camera for you - or at the very least,
- Record to HD using whatever local video software you like best,
- Use a proper editing app to get it edited, and
- Upload the finished product to Mogulus.
I know it's not the point of having sites like Mogulus, but that's honestly the best way IMHO.
Nuff respect to Sarah for today's PopSnap - her edits today were razor sharp. Good stuff.
