Guidelines for Using Video on the Web…?
- Use video when and where it is appropriate
- Keep your audience and delivery method in mind when designing video for a Web page
- Sound and Video clips should match or complement one another
- Keep video files at an appropriate size so they can be played on standard equipment to reach a wider audience; 1 sec. of uncompressed video = 24MB
- Use high-quality video footage that lends a professional feel to Web site
- Set up your video files to go with the graphic, animation, sound elements

Frames per second (fps)…?
- “A numeric value that specifies the number of video frames displayed in quick succession for each elapsed second of playing video.”
- 12-24fps needed to deceive the human eye otherwise appear ‘choppy’
- TV = 30 fps (NTSC rounded) or 25 fps PAL
- The greater the frame rate the better the quality and the bigger the file size. IMAX = 60fps

horizontal – how many scan lines make up the picture and is a measure of video quality
Factors that determine the resolution of video include…?
- Aspect ratio: Ratio of width to height in the dimensions of a frame
- The frame size for playing video is expressed in horizontal and vertical pixel dimensions such as 800 by 600 pixels
- Bit depth: Number of bits used to describe the color of a single pixel
The higher the resolution, the larger the…?
size of the file.
In addition to frame rate and resolution, bandwidth, processor speed, memory, and monitor size are important considerations for ….?
Web-based video delivery.
The 4 basic steps in production are…?
- Video footage is acquired,
- Record, and digitized if needed
- Import the clips into video editing program. Settings: frame size, output file type, compression format, resolution
- Delivery and display the final video
Pre-Production…?

- Scripts serve as the story that will be told with the video camera
- A flowchart specifies where video will be included based on choices selected by the user
Post-Production…?
- Process video after it is captured
- In most video editing programs, several different tracks are used to store video information
- Timecode track used to synchronize all of the components
- Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) measures video in hours, minutes, seconds, and frames
- Video on the Web can either be downloaded or streamed
- After video has been successfully recorded, digitized, and processed it is ready to be incorporated into a Web site
- If you plan to stream the video from the server, you will need to post your Web site with a Web hosting company that supports streaming
