This document discusses strategies for enhancing online presentations for the Clinical Pathology Conference (CPC) at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. It outlines the transition from initially streaming CPC sessions publicly on Facebook to creating a private Facebook group and YouTube channel to cater to different audiences. Equipment was purchased, including an HDMI encoder and later integrating direct streaming from Zoom. A future goal is to integrate hybrid sessions for the Grand CPC with a limited live audience and online participation. Recommendations are provided for achieving broadcast quality, including ensuring a stable internet connection and using a green screen to integrate presenters into slides.
Audiovisual and technicalities from preparation to retrieval how to enhance my presentation
- 1. Audiovisual And Technicalities, From Preparation To Retrieval, Enhancing Your Presentation Azmi Mohd Tamil Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia
- 2. Online CPC • I was recruited by Saidi Putera PTM in January 2020 to stream the CPC online on Facebook. Initially CPC FB was open to public but later we created a private group on FB due to Psychiatry CPC on sexuality and frigidity. • 15th April 2020, we started using Zoom for CPC weekly sessions. We were able to stream to Facebook Private Group using HDMI encoder bought from AliExpress for RM240. Later we streamed to FB directly from Zoom itself. • YouTube channel for CPC was created to cater for public sessions. • Paper was submitted for supporting hybrid sessions for Grand CPC. Equipment was bought and Unit Penyiaran Digital (UPD) was created in October 2020.
- 3. Zoom Webinar • Limited to only 500 participants. • Only presenters seen on the screen & able to speak.
- 4. CPC Public FB Page • Should no longer be in use with the creation of Medic UKM FB Page. • Previously was used for Seminar Rakyat and other seminars meant for public consumption.
- 5. CPC Private FB Group • 1500 vetted members • Used for CPC sessions meant only for staff and students of Medic UKM.
- 6. YouTube Channel • 478 subscribers • Used for public CPC sessions. • Helps GPs to get CPD points.
- 7. CPC Repository • Ongoing project • Previous CPC sessions curated and catalogued according to departments • Will only allow access to verified faculty members.
- 8. Future Role of CPD for CPC • Hybrid Sessions for future Grand CPC sessions. Both F2F for limited audience in auditorium and online. • Equipment already bought. We need prepare auditorium for such hybrid events. • Similar like Syarahan Perdana in March 2021, we integrate presenter into the presentation via the use of green screen.
- 9. Broadcast Quality • Defined as a video stream, this level of quality states that the video stream is suitable for being included in normal TV broadcasting. • But we are not broadcasting our lectures on TV. Instead we are streaming on online platform such as Microsoft Teams, Zoom Meeting, Google Meet, Cisco Webex and Lifesize. • The term “broadcast quality” in this talk refers to crystal clear audio with no humming or feedback/echo, excellent video quality with no lagging even when streaming video on the platform, and ability to use add-on graphics and animation on the fly while teaching.
- 10. Broadcast Quality Online CPC 1.Minimum equipment – a recent notebook with built-in camera & microphone. If many devices in the same room, use headset and mute mic of non-presenters. Extras – video/still camera with encoder, tripod & lighting. 2. The online platform for us in CPC Medic UKM is Zoom Webinar. 3.Adequately stable internet connection is vital for any live stream. Check your line with https://speedtest.net • Always go for fixed line/LAN connection. But in UKM that line goes to your ancient desktop running WinXP with no mic/camera. • But you can share that fixed line - https://tinyurl.com/sharelineUKM
- 12. Stable Internet Connection 1. If for at home, apply for best line that you can afford. Mine is Unifi 800 Megabit/s at rm270/month. Maxis and Time is usually faster and cheaper. 2.That speed is only available to you with the correct gigabyte router and cables (Cat 5e or better). 3.Wi-Fi – go for dual band router, 2.4GHz (50 Megabit/s) and 5 Ghz (600 Megabits/s). 4.Sharing the internet line from your phone? You would be lucky to get 2 Megabits/s. Same speed like wi-fi HUKM? 5.Minimum internet speed for Zoom is 600 kilobit/s but 1.5 Megabit/s is preferred for group calls. 1080p need 3.0 Megabit/s. 6.Ping should be less than 150 ms. For LAN, it is usually between 5 and 20ms, for wi-fi close to 30ms and for handphone is much worse and can reach >100ms.
- 13. No budget solution? 1. Get PTM to supply another internet port to your room and allocate an IP address for your notebook. 2. If PTM don’t want to spent RM380 to install another internet port into your room, you can always share that fixed line - https://tinyurl.com/sharelineUKM 3. Cheapest router on Shopee & Lazada is Xiaomi Mi 4C (RM40) and Mercusys (RM35).
- 14. Green Screen for Grand CPC Bonus Segment
- 15. How to integrate yourself into your presentation slides? • You just need a Green Screen and it’s stand • Green Screen on Lazada RM20.77. https://s.lazada.com.my/s.1NWT0 • Green Screen stand on Lazada RM40.66 https://s.lazada.com.my/s.1mACV
- 16. What UPD has to offer to Grand CPC Presenters
- 17. Conclusion Some how I think our current Dean is prescient. He somehow foresaw the lockdown and brought me into the picture in January 2020. Lockdown happened on 18th March 2020. The faculty is very supportive and has created UPD based on the Grand CPC working paper. All the equipment that we asked for were approved. We have proven our capability many times. Unlike the Dean, I am not prescient nor am I omniscient. But I will continue to plan and develop new strategies to assist all faculty members.
