Sharing recorded Zoom videos on your course GauchoSpace page

You will be uploading the video of your Zoom session to GauchoCast and sharing it with your class through GauchoSpace.

Before Beginning a Zoom Recording:

-Provision your course GauchoCast folder through GauchoSpace.

- Ensure your computer has enough space and processing time for the recording: Considerations for Zoom Recordings

- Inform students that you will be recording the session, and give them the option to mute their audio/video (as required by California law)

Create Your Recording

1. Create your Zoom recording by pressing the RECORD button at the bottom of the Zoom window.
   
2. When you are done, press the square Stop Record button, or End the Meeting.
3. On both Mac and PC: An activity window will pop up “Converting Meeting Recording."
   • Zoom needs to remain open for your recording to finish processing. While your video is processing, do not enter another meeting, quit Zoom, disconnect from the internet, or power down your computer. This may corrupt your file
     
4. Once the file processing is complete, Zoom will open the folder that contains the file(s) generated by recording.
5. By default, local recordings will be placed in following directory:
   • Windows: C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\Zoom
   • Mac: /Users/[Username]/Documents/Zoom
   • Linux: home/[Username]/Documents/Zoom

     note: You will need the .mp4 file for the next step.

• Accessing Zoom Recordings on your Computer
