How do I make my video?
The research message in just 3 minutes!
The Rules:
Upload a video (via this link) in which you tell us about your research.
You can make the video with your phone. You can hold the phone and video yourself or ask a friend to video your presentation.
The video may not include any other people in the shot besides yourself.
If you include a PPT slide or any other graphic, it should be only ONE image. (We're looking for an engaging discussion of your research work and great presentation skills - not technological bells and whistles!)
The video must be maximum of 3 minutes long. Any submission longer than 3 minutes will be cut off at the 3 minute mark.
Multiple prizes are up for grabs. Some prizes will be for participation and awarded randomly (computer-generated), others will be selected by the Deans and DVC Research, others will be on the basis of a popular vote and others as determined by the Postgraduate Liaison Committee.
What to consider when making the video.
We are looking for clarity of message (can anybody from any discipline understand it?)
We are looking for engagement (is it interesting?)
We are looking for videos that can convince us about the value of postgraduate research - and of your study in particular.
