Taskstream Video
Students using their ipads to upload videos for classes and the edTPA program need their vidoes to be under 500 MB. To fit the requirements, we recommend using a compression app like this one: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/video-compressor/id482465886?mt=8
It is a free app, it allows students to trim heads and tails and it compresses to 3 presets:
- 720p (1280x720) - 70% reduction of file size
- VGA (568 × 320) - 80% reduction of file size
- Low (224x128) – 99% reduction of file size
It handles "data management" by offering to delete the large original file as soon as the compressed version is available.
Note: the low was is compressed at such a reduced frame rate it's not worth using unless you need to send a video via data-over-cell and don’t want to destroy your data plan.
