The One-Button Studio is a recording studio where students can record a practice run of their speech or presentation or record the real thing. A practice recording will allow students to see where they need to make improvements for when they either record or present the actual speech or presentation. The video below is similar to the Learning Commons One-Button Studio and offers great tips. A video reflecting our set up will be posted when available.

The One-Button Studio is a user-friendly recording studio.

To make an appointment, click on the appointments link below. 

NOTE: If you have not used WCOnline previously for tutoring or scheduling an OBS appointment, you will be required to register for an Account to reserve the space. It will ask for:

• Name
• Preferred email and phone number (to send confirmations, reminders, and if needed cancelation notices. If you are a student, we recommend you use your Lone Star College email address.)
• Student ID#
• Choose if you are a student, community member, or employee
• Create a password.
• Select the text messaging option if you would like to receive reminders of appointments via text messaging.

Click on the document link below for help scheduling an appointment in WCOnline.

Bring a flash drive to save recording(s). Flash drives are not provided. 

​Getting started

1. At the time of your appointment, check in at the Tutoring Check-in at the Service Desk.
2. If using the projector, check out the remote control and presentation clicker at the Tech Help station. That staff member will unlock the room.
3. Set up the space for your recording needs, including logging into the PC if projecting an image or power-point presentation from the projector. Turn on the projector.
4. Practice your presentation.
5. Insert a flash drive into the USB port. The flash drive should have enough free storage to save your video. We recommend a minimum of 3 GB.
6. Turn studio lights on, if needed. Light switch is on the back of each light.
7. To start, press the red button on the recording box. The light around the box will turn solid red when ready to record. There is not a countdown, so give yourself a few seconds before you begin your speech or presentation.
8. Record your presentation.
9. When your presentation is completed, press the red button to stop the recording. 
10. Recording stops and the *.mp4 video file is processed and saved to the flash drive.  When the light around the box turns green you can either re-record or remove the flash drive from the USB port. When the flash drive is removed the light will once again begin blinking red.

Finishing up

1. When you are finished recording or your appointment time has ended. Remove the flash drive.
2. Turn the lights, blue/green light, and/or projector off, if used.
3. Sign-out of the computer.
4. Turn off the ceiling light as you walk out of the studio.
5. Return the remote control and presentation clicker to the Service Desk to be checked in.
6. If needed, use Adobe Premier or Movie Maker to edit your video on any of the LC computers (the laptops do not have Adobe products). Do not use the computer in the studio. There is no video editing software on it.
