Copyright Basics for Online Presentations

Ever find an image on the web and wonder if you can use it in a presentation? Have you shown a YouTube video in a course that is also being streamed online? Are you familiar with the TEACH Act? Do you know what “fair use” really means for you, your instructors and presenters or your organization? Yeah, it’s complicated. But it’s worth the effort to master the basics. Especially now when online presentations, e-learning and virtual courses are being delivered via live webcast and streaming video at an unprecedented rate. Join us for a live webinar with intellectual property attorney Joseph T. Leone. He’ll help you master the basics of webcasting copyright, and touch on some recent cases that shed new light. • What types of content (photos, images, screenshots, videos) can be used safely in an online presentation without author permission? And what content definitely cannot be used? • What’s in the grey zone and what factors dictate how grey is too grey? • Is there a difference between fair use for face-to-face instruction vs. online, hybrid or blended? • After a presentation has been streamed online, who owns it? And what happens if it shows up in someone else’s presentation?

How to Create Slides that Don't Suck (and Help Others Do the Same)

Stop for a moment and think about the last presentation you watched (or presented). Did the speaker read the slides to you? Did you hear the phrase, "Now this next one might be a little hard to read"? Were there flashy animations? Or over-enthusiastic use of clip art? You aren't alone. Now imagine working for a webcasting company. You'd see a ton of online presentations, right? You might even have to present some of your own! That's true for Sonic Foundry veterans St. Angel and Pollard. Yet there's one thing you'll rarely find in their presentations: traditional PowerPoint slides. They didn't just decide to stop having boring slides one day. They read books, watched great speakers and used trial and error to find a presentation style all their own. If you'd like to create more engaging presentation visuals, and help others in your organization do the same, join this live webinar to get the basics of not just great slide design, but presentation delivery. We've culled the best tips from experts, and added a few of our own, to ensure you'll leave inspired and ready to spread the good presentation word. Discussion will include: - Surefire ways to create sucky slides - Ready-to-steal ideas for creating presentation slides that keep your audience focused on what you have to say - Easy tech tips to enhance both your visuals and delivery, whether you present in-room, online or both - Meaty lists of resources where you can see great slides and slidemakers - Bonus: two lucky attendees who ask a great question during our live webcast will win a free copy of Presentation Zen or The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs.
