How to create a recorded talk

as part of your IMPRS-BAC application

You are here because you have been asked to send us a recorded talk about a research project as part of the application to the IMPRS-BAC.

Please create an .mp4 file of this 10-minute talk by January 27th, and either email it to imprs-bac@molgen.mpg.de or drop the file here: https://oc-molgen.gnz.mpg.de/owncloud/s/4w9xAd8DG6e7NKo .

Below are instructions of how to create this file using the popular free software Zoom. Other options are of course available.

• Open your prepared presentation

• Start Zoom

• Make sure microphone and camera are switched on. If you do not have access to a camera, a microphone is sufficient

• Click on "Record"

• Click on "Share Screen", select the window with your presentation

• If possible, view the presentation in full screen and have the small speaker window visible in a corner

• Give your presentation as you would to an audience.

• After your talk, stop sharing, stop recording, end meeting

• Your recording is now being converted to .mp4

• Send this .mp4 file to the IMPRS at imprs-bac@molgen.mpg.de or drop it at https://oc-molgen.gnz.mpg.de/owncloud/s/4w9xAd8DG6e7NKo (it will not be visible to other candidates).
