I would love to know the results of your list price tests once you have some data to share ;)

I've recorded voice with dynamic mics for a long time, with no hiss at all. Saying that dynamic mics are wrong for speech is a generalization.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎08-29-2019

Have you tried OBS? I'm not sure if it compresses the files, but it is one of the free options many people use.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-31-2019

I would argue that is not really that clear, because it says "...trust Udemy for employee upskilling" instead of saying directly that they are customers.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-19-2019

No, Of course, Of course.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-19-2019

I have always used it for all of my videos. Usually, I set a video quality of 10. For the promo videos, I tend to use a slightly smaller number (better quality).

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-19-2019

I don't think so. That time would only count as experience if you were applying to a content/media production position.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-03-2019

I asked you two questions ;) , so I'm not sure which one you answered. If you have a computer, then you will most likely produce your videos there, so, why not split your video there instead of on your cell phone?

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-03-2019

Hi Tarek, You can probably use the Marketplace Insights tool to find out whether there is a demand for a course covering that topic. You will probably not get the answers you were looking for when you posted your question here, because this is a community of instructors, and we are probably not your target audience. If you are looking for feedback on some of the topics you plan to include in your course, maybe rewording your question in that direction could be a good idea.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-03-2019

Hi, In your other thread, you said you were using your iPhone. I have a question for you: Are you really going to try to create a complete course just with your cell phone? If you have a good device, you can definitely use your phone's camera to record some lessons. Many people do that, but if you want to create a high-quality course in a reasonable period of time, you will need a computer. Do you have one?

CarlosDeLeon · ‎07-02-2019

Hi, That would depend on the video editing program you are using to produce your videos. If you let us know what program you are using, we could make more accurate suggestions.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-28-2019

The above answer will not apply to courses in the Udemy For Business (UFB) program after July 15th. It was just announced that the terms of the program will be modified to require exclusivity, which means that if your courses are selected for the program, you will lose the freedom mentioned by Abbie in her previous reply. EDIT: I failed to clarify that you can opt-out of the UFB program if you want to.

Hi Khulud, Do you mean enrolling in your course for free? If so, yes, you can. You can either make your course free to the public or make it paid but give some people a coupon to enroll for free.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-26-2019

Hi Rimsha, Welcome to the platform. You will notice that the instructor community is very supportive.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-26-2019

Welcome aboard, Harshil!

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-26-2019

Hi George, That is something you need to configure/set in the application you are using to edit/produce your videos. How to do that specifically, will depend on the application you are using.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-24-2019

Hi Federico, Have you visited the course creation section of the Teaching Center? That's a great place to start. Are you looking for some specific kind of guidance? Maybe being a little more specific in your request could help others give you more accurate suggestions.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-22-2019

Awesome!

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-21-2019

Hi Stephanie, You can film with your iPhone, but you need a dedicated microphone if you want good sound quality. The type of mic that would be best for you depends on factors such as your environment, the specific kind of videos you plant to make, etc. Using the community's search feature you might be able to find some other threads with discussions and recommendations about microphones.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-21-2019

Hi Etka, The fact that you script your lessons can be of great help. This is what I do: I upload the video (a very low-quality version, so that it uploads faster) to Youtube in private mode. I add a new transcription or subtitle. From the 3 methods supported I use the "Transcribe and auto-sync" (see image below), then paste the text from my script and let Youtube process it. Download the .vtt file from youtube and review it to see if it is correct. If necessary, I use an open source application called "Subtitle Edit" to make adjustments. Upload the .vtt file to Udemy. YouTube usually does a very good job syncing the script correctly, but it does depend on correct pronunciation.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-17-2019

Happy Father's day to you too, Lawrence. Thanks!

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-17-2019

Hi Chandra, Are you seeking feedback about this text? Would this be part of your course description in the course landing page?

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-14-2019

No, there is no "approval" time for videos. There is "processing" time, but that is a different thing. Anyway, I hope you get it sorted out.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-10-2019

Hi Anjali, Congratulations on publishing your course!

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-10-2019

Hi Abhishek, It appears that there are several issues with the video uploader these days. Try using the bulk uploader. It rarely fails, and you can use it even if you only want to upload one video, as long as it is not the promo.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-07-2019

Great. That sounds like distortion due to the level being too high at some points. I don't know the audio editing capabilities of Premiere, but I would try normalizing it to -2.5 dB (or even below). If premiere doesn't have that feature, you could export the audio en edit it with Audacity. If normalization makes some parts too quiet, you might need to try lowering the gain only on the peaks, but I don't really know if there is a way to automate that.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-06-2019

Hi, Maybe if you post a portion of the audio file, people will have a better idea of the kind of issues you mention and can make better suggestions.

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-06-2019

Great to know it worked! Yes, I hope so. I'm also waiting for a solution, because I can't update my promo video...

CarlosDeLeon · ‎06-06-2019

I reported it more than 2 months ago, and they still don't have a solution. The error message was slightly different, but it was definitely about the same thing (the signature). The solution is to use the bulk uploader instead. Unfortunately that is not possible if the video you are trying to upload is the promo, but for all of the other videos, the bulk uploader will help.
