Here is a video I created for the 3240 media course I am taking. This video called Understanding The InDesign Pages Panel discusses how to use the pages panel in Adobe
InDesign CS6 as well as demonstrating how master pages work. It was
created on a mac, but could be easily related to using InDesign on a PC.
I laughed when I heard the video, because I'm sure my voice sounds much
deeper on the video than it did on my recordings. I guess that's just
part of the conversion process!
It ended up being almost 15 minutes, which is quite a bit longer than
it was supposed to be. I've had problems with my students understanding
how to use this panel in the past, so I wanted to try to include as
much information as possible.
Although I'm quite familiar with many types of software, this still
was a difficult process. It was challenging to do because I began
working in Keynote and had planned to build the whole presentation in
that program. Part of the way through, I realized that it would be more
clear if I had a video of the master page section. At that point, I
changed my strategy and recorded the beginning and the end in Keynote.
Then I recorded the middle part using a Quicktime screen recording. The
trick to this was making sure that they were the same resolution size.
Then I merged together my three videos into one, again using the
Quicktime software.
Hope you enjoy this, it was a great learning experience for me.
