Make copies of your original video (make this times how many segments you will need)

1. Decide how many segments you need to make from the original video. Video segments should be divided into topics.

As you identify the segments, write down the beginning time of each from the Panopto timeline. (Timeline can be found by selecting Edit icon, looks like a movie slate with a pencil, when you hover over the video you would like to segment.)



2. Create a folder inside your My Folder to store all the video segments and the original full-length video. 


3. Copy the original full-length video into the folder you just created. Then copy the full-length video, equivalent times to the number of segments you identified in step 1.  You can copy a video by hovering over the video of choice and selecting the Settings icon, looks like a cogwheel.  Then select the Manage tab from the menu on the left and scroll down to Copy Video section.  You can rename your video in the box to the right of New video name, then choose your destination folder from the drop down menu labeled Copy video to.  Then select Create Full Copy.


Next: Edit and apply the changes on each video to create the segments

At this point you have created several duplicates of the full-length original that will now become each of the shorter segments – all you need to do is edit each segment video to show only the segment you want.


4.  Edit video segment 1. Cut the portion in the timeline that is not part of this segment by dragging the bar at the beginning of the timeline to the start of the segment you desire.  Then drag the bar from the end of the timeline to the time you wish the segmented video to stop.  This will grey the area of the timeline you do not want in the segment. 



5. Apply the change(s) when you have finished editing by selecting the Apply button in the upper right corner of the screen.

 


6. Continue to edit and apply (save) the remaining segments.
