DEVOXX has very good vids. Don't have any idea what it costs etc. http://www.parleys.com/channel/5148921d0364bc17fc56adf0/presentations Tony On Wed, May 1, 2013 at 8:34 AM, Josh Miller <josh@joshnliz.com> wrote:
There was an interesting development at Drupalcamp Florida. They hired a company who recorded all of the sessions. All of them. With a camera.

They then said: we have enough money to actually post about 20 of the 50 or so sessions. If you (or your company) wants to "sponsor" your session to be posted, they can do so for a nominal fee and they get branding added to the video. Videos have not been posted, and it's been over a week. So maybe not so great on the turn around time :)
The best presentation videos I've ever seen include two video feeds, the slides, and the presenter. Put the presenter in a tiny window off to the side and the slides in the main screen.
Having worked in a Advertising Agency for the better part of 7 years before being hired by Commerce Guys, I have some experience in being hired to make video content. The expensive is not small, as it takes a lot of people, specialized equipment, physical hard drive space, very fast computers, and a turn around time of hours, not days. Not to mention someone who coordinates the files and gets the sessions posted with enough meta data that people can find them later.

[...] Some conferences do have a dedicated cameraman, or sometimes two (one for the screen, one for the presenter). I don't know what the additional cost/complexity is there, but it would no doubt take us a few tries to get right; definitely that's something that would need to be practiced at Camps first to work out the kinks. If you know a DrupalCamp organizer, I would very much encourage you to try and get [...]
