- 00:05 Now I would like to show you how to record an audio or a video onto your OneNote.
- 00:10 So let's go back into our quick notes.
- 00:13 I'm going to click on the pull down where it says Webinars, and
- 00:15 then go back to the quick notes that we've been using throughout the entire course.
- 00:20 Okay, now I'm going to add a new page, I'll pick on add a page on the right.
- 00:25 And I'll just call this one Recorded Audio And Video.
- 00:33 Now at that point, of course, I could just click anywhere and
- 00:36 start to type anything like we've seen throughout the entire course.
- 00:40 I can add things to the Insert menu, I've shown you some of those.
- 00:44 We could add things to the Draw menu, but
- 00:47 this time I want to add an audio or a video.
- 00:51 So I'll pick on the Insert menu.
- 00:53 And notice over here it says Record Audio or Record Video.
- 00:58 So as soon as I pick on Record Audio, it'll actually start to record.
- 01:04 So I'm going to pick on Record Audio here.
- 01:08 And then, it's actually recording right now,
- 01:11 I can tell because of that word stop right there.
- 01:14 So everything I'm saying right now is actually being recorded into the OneNote.
- 01:20 So maybe I want to say something like, make sure you call,
- 01:25 make sure you call June tomorrow morning.
- 01:28 So I'm just kind of making a mental note to myself during this recording.
- 01:32 When I'm done with that I'll pick on Stop.
- 01:36 And now that audio is actually part of the OneNote.
- 01:39 So if I move my mouse towards that audio,
- 01:42 then as soon as I'm on top of that you get this extra icon here.
- 01:47 So let's see if I play that or if you can play it up there as well.
- 01:52 I'll pick on the Play button, and
- 01:54 now you'll hear me talking within the recording.
- 01:59 And then it's actually recording right now,
- 02:01 I can tell because of that word stop right there.
- 02:05 So everything I'm saying right now is actually being recorded into the OneNote.
- 02:11 So maybe I want to say something like, make sure you call,
- 02:15 make sure you call June.
- 02:18 So I just pressed on Stop.
- 02:20 But anyway, at this point I have that audio on there and
- 02:24 I can play it here or I can play it up top there.
- 02:28 So remember when you're on that Insert menu,
- 02:31 as soon as you pick on Record Audio it will start to record.
- 02:36 And then even here on the playback menu,
- 02:39 I can do record audio there, or this time we'll try a video.
- 02:43 Now before I try the video, I want to make sure it's going to use the proper camera.
- 02:49 So I'm still on the Playback menu and I'll come over here to the right and
- 02:53 I'll pick on Audio and Video Settings.
- 02:57 So in this case this device is your microphone, all right, so
- 03:01 I have the microphone set there.
- 03:05 And then in this case this is your camera, and I have the correct camera there for
- 03:09 the video, okay.
- 03:11 So that's exactly what they're talking about.
- 03:14 I'm going to go ahead and click on OK here.
- 03:17 And the way I got to that window was the Audio and Video Settings.
- 03:21 So I can record the video here, but let's go back to the Insert menu.
- 03:27 And then another way you would find it is over here, Record the Video.
- 03:32 So let's do the recorded video this time.
- 03:35 And now you'll actually see my face there.
- 03:37 So that's me.
- 03:39 You're watching me record the course that you're watching,
- 03:44 but you're actually watching me record the video for OneNote as well.
- 03:50 So it actually is recording at this time.
- 03:53 And then I would pick on stop up here when I'm done with that recording for OneNote.
- 04:01 And now notice how that's part of your page as well.
- 04:04 So if I click on the video down here,
- 04:08 then I'll pick on play, and guess what?
- 04:14 So that's me.
- 04:15 You're watching me record.
- 04:19 So there's the video.
- 04:22 And then once you're on either the audio or the video you get the Playback menu,
- 04:27 and you can see how you can play it, pause it, stop it, rewind it.
- 04:31 Well this one will be rewinding it ten minutes or ten seconds.
- 04:35 Here I can fast forward it.
- 04:37 So isn't that interesting how we can add the audio and the video onto your OneNote.
