Audio

To maintain a professional and engaging learning environment on AnyCampus, please refer to the following standards:

  • Audio Quality: Audio recordings must be clear, intelligible, and balanced across left and right channels, free from distracting background noise or distortions.

  • Audio Synchronization: The audio track must accurately synchronize with the corresponding video content.

  • Consistent and Adequate Volume: Maintain consistent and adequate audio levels throughout each lecture and across the entire course, ensuring comfortable listening without requiring learners to adjust their device volume excessively.

Thumbnail

Creating a high-quality thumbnail is essential for attracting learners to your curriculum. To maintain a professional and engaging look on AnyCampus, please refer to the following standards and tips:

Basic Standards

  • Image Size and Format: Use images larger than 1024x576 pixels, in .jpg, .jpeg, or .png file formats.

  • Image Style Preference: Prefer a single, unedited image for a simpler look with fewer visual elements. Cutout or cropped images of yourself (creator) are optional.

  • Text Inclusion: Text can be included. Keep it simple and easy to read.

Tips for Creating Thumbnails

  • Clear Message: Learners should be able to understand what you will share in a curriculum just by looking at the thumbnail.

  • Simplicity: Minimize the number of visual elements and details to enhance understanding and maintain a professional look.

  • Background: Ensure the background behind the text is simple and doesn't distract from the readability of the text.

Additional Recommendations

  • High-Quality Images: Ensure your images are high-resolution to avoid pixelation and maintain a professional appearance.

  • Consistent Branding: Use a consistent color scheme and style to create a cohesive look across your content.

  • Readable Fonts: Choose fonts that are easy to read and ensure there is good contrast between the text and the background.

  • Engaging Visuals: Use expressive and relevant visuals that relate to your curriculum content.

  • Accurate Representation: Ensure your thumbnail accurately represents the content of your curriculum to set correct expectations for learners.

  • Professionalism: Avoid using overly crowded or cluttered images. A clean and simple design is more likely to attract viewers.
