However, if for one reason or +another you are unable to send us your prerecorded video in one of the +above formats, you may submit them in other common formats, like +MPEG-4 (`.mp4`), and we will try to convert them to our preferred +formats on your behalf. + +*Prepare recorded video in 720p (1280px by 720px) or higher, in the +WebM format if possible.* + +> The conference broadcast will most likely be in +> [720p](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/720p) (1280px x 720px, +> progressive) using the [WebM](https://www.webmproject.org/) video +> format.

There might be time +for live questions and answers over a web conference, though, so if +you can record a short video covering your main points, you might be +able to go into more detail in live Q&A. + +## I have so much I want to share. Can I record a longer video? + +The conference program has so many interesting talks. We wish we +could fit everything in at full length! (Maybe EmacsConf month?) +Please think of your video as a short teaser that can get people +interested and point them to where they can find out more. You can +email <emacsconf-submit@gnu.org> links and other notes to add to the +wiki page for your talk. If you’d like to record a longer video *in +addition* to the short one for the main conference, please feel free +to send us that too. + +Additionally, even though it is tempting, please refrain from +fast-forwarding your recording to make it fit within the format; on top +of being obvious, it hurts your intelligibility. Trimming out the +silences and the filler words can help sometimes, but a better solution +for you might be to write, record, and edit your voice-over; then, you +can record your video to go along with it. + +As a last option, if you plan to have a live Q&A session after the +broadcast, you may ask the host to field you a couple of questions to +address extra points that couldn’t make the cut. We’ll have to be +subtle about it, so mum’s the word! + +## I can’t figure out how to record the video. Can I just present the talk? + +We might be able to help you record your talk using the BigBlueButton +web conferencing system before November 7. Please email +<emacsconf-submit@gnu.org> with some times that might work for you and +we’ll see if a volunteer can meet up with you to record it. + +## Do I need to follow some visual guidelines for the presentation? + +- Dark text on a light background is more legible than the opposite + (especially for people who are visually impaired); this stands for + both your slides and your Emacs theme. If you use a dark-theme with + your Emacs, you can change to a lighter one with `M-x customize-theme` + (look for those with a `-light` suffix). +- If you think your fonts might be too small in your slides or in Emacs, + they might very well be. [You can change the font-size in your + Emacs](https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SetFonts#h5o-6), but you can + also play with the size of the captured window during your recording. +- Try to minimize the screen-flashes that occur when you switch between + windows, especially if their themes do not cohere (light-to-dark and + the reverse). If you can edit your recording, fades and other + transitions are a neat solution to this problem. + +## How do I show my keystrokes on screen? + +In Emacs, you can use +[interaction-log.el](https://github.com/michael-heerdegen/interaction-log.el) +(in MELPA) to display the keystrokes and the commands they run in a separate +buffer. For a system-wide solution, you can look into +[screenkey](https://gitlab.com/screenkey/screenkey). + +## I’m not used to talking to myself. Can I present the talk to someone? + +We might be able to help you record your talk using the BigBlueButton +web conferencing system before November 7. Please email +<emacsconf-submit@gnu.org> with some times that might work for you and +we’ll see if a volunteer can meet up with you to record it. + +## Can I see the other proposed talks? + +Once we’ve emailed all the speakers about their acceptance, we’ll put +up the talk wiki pages. That way, you can see what else is going on +in the conference and maybe coordinate with other speakers in order to +minimize overlap and maximize awesomeness. + +## What if there are lots of great questions during Q&A and we run out of time? + +You can continue answering questions on the collaborative pad or IRC, +and we’ll copy questions and answers onto the wiki page +afterwards. You can also answer questions on the wiki page even after the event. + +An extended live demo or Q&A session might be possible if someone +volunteers to broadcast it on an alternative stream.
