Video Recording Instructions for SEEDA-CECNSM 2022 Talks

SEEDA-CECNSM 2022 will be a hybrid conference, thus it will support both virtual and physical presence. Zoom platform will be used to run the conference (23th – 25th September). All Zoom links are included in the conference program. All physical attending authors will make their presentation live, while all virtual attending authors will record their presentations before and and submit them to the organizing committee. Virtual attending authors MUST be available (in Zoom) during the session that the video of their work will be presented, in order to receive questions from the physical and virtual audience. All presentations will be 12 – 15 min long, in order to have time for questions and discussion.

All virtual attending paper authors MUST prepare video recordings of their talks by 18 September, 2022.

  • The talks should be at most 12 – 15 minutes long.
  • Record your talk using Zoom, OBS Studio, or any other program, but MAKE SURE that the recording will be in mp4 video format.
  • Name the video file as “seeda2022-paperXXX-video.mp4”, where XXX is the submission number for your paper.
  • The file size should be at maximum 200 MB.
  • Send the presentation via email to seeda2022@uoi.gr with subject “seeda2022-paperXXX-video”. If the file is too large, use a dropbox, google drive, or any other platform, and attach the link (not share the folder).
  • Also attach the presentation (ppt, pptx, pdf) in order to be available, in case of reference during the audience questions.

Zoom can be used to record a talk by starting a meeting (with the presenter as the only participant), sharing the screen to show slides and the speaker, and use the record feature. The recorded files can be saved locally on the computer in MP4 format.
