Below are the tools that we use, why we use them, and set up instructions. (Here are some [Macbook setup notes](https://github.com/Openscapes/teaching-learning-resources/issues/12)).

## Eventbrite

We use Eventbrite to manage registrations for events like the Pathways to Open Science series, and Community Calls. We plan to explore Zoom registration to see if it's a good alternative for our needs.

For [Pathways to Open Science](https://openscapes.github.io/pathways-to-open-science/), we created a **"series" of 6 events** instead of individual events. Challenge was that every event will list the same duration, while reality was they alternated weekly with 1.5hrs for community call and 1hr for coworking.

### Eventbrite - Zoom - Google Cal how-to set up an event

Recommended workflow for now:

1. Create Google Cal invite \> make it a Zoom meeting from inside that invite (if your Google Cal is integrated with Zoom )\> save. That meeting will appear in your Zoom account. Confirm it has waiting room and no password.

2. In Eventbrite, create Event \> copy Zoom link into Eventbrite \> Event \> Online Event Page \> Live video or audio, instead of "Add Zoom"

- *What didn't work well*: "Add Zoom" button, which used "Stefanie Butland's personal meeting room", created a mtg in Zoom that has a Zoom registration link, not a clear meeting link. Stumped for now as to how to make that Eventbrite-Zoom integration work.

3. Create and schedule reminder emails.Eventbrite \> Manage attendees \> Emails to attendees \> create one custom reminder email. Set reply-to as `hello@openscapes.org`. Delete other default reminders (Eventbrite makes 3 reminders by default and that's annoying). For reminder emails in an event series, we must update for every event in the series.

- We create a custom reminder email with *Subject*: Zoom link for Openscapes event-name. *Body*: We're excited to see you later today! At the session start time (5:00 - 6:00 pm ET), please click to join us in Zoom: LINK. Optional, include event logo or Openscapes logo.

- *Why a custom email reminer?* Several community call participants said it was hard to find the zoom link with Eventbrite's default reminder email (Stef agrees); that's why we put "Zoom" in subject line of custom reminder.

## Quicktime video editing

Sometimes we want to edit a Cohort Call recording to remove a section from the middle, e.g. Main room chat during breakouts.

This video says it all: [Trimming Clips or Cutting Parts Out of the Middle Using Quicktime](https://youtu.be/82CiWXI4rlQ) (2min 40sec). Briefly:

- make copy of your video to edit
- go to start point of section you want to remove
- use arrow keys for finer navigation
- Edit \> Split clip \> Done
- go to end point of section you want to remove
- Edit \> Split clip \> I think you hit delete on the section to exclude at this point \> Done
- Save

Once you delete a section \> Done, the clips are automatically spliced together.

### Two scenarios for sharing audio in Zoom

This Zoom resource covers two scenarios we use: [Sharing computer sound in a screen share](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362643-Sharing-computer-sound-in-a-screen-share). Screenshots below. Practice both beforehand, testing by recording yourself, because they're not obvious and chances of working smoothly on the fly in a meeting are ...low.

Scenario 1. During start of meeting, sharing welcome slides in a loop, with music from spotify playing so audience can hear, and people speaking does not disrupt music. See [**How to share audio with shared visuals**](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362643-Sharing-computer-sound-in-a-screen-share#h_01GBXFBZ8GBD3Z3YV70YRETA7Y).

![](images/Screenshot%202023-05-10%20at%209.25.19%20PM.png){width="340"}

Scenario 2. During interludes where people are silent journaling, to share audio only, not screen. See [**How to play audio or music without sharing your screen**](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362643-Sharing-computer-sound-in-a-screen-share#h_01GBXFC4HB7B83C4T81Y5RRR38).

![](images/Screenshot%202023-05-10%20at%209.24.08%20PM.png){width="340"}

IMPT: volume of shared sound is controlled in the source application. If spotify music is too loud, control volume in spotify (not your computer).
