Hi, not really a theater question, but there are lots of knowledgeable folks here so....
When they remodeled the high school I teach in, they "upgraded" the classrooms to Smartboard computer and projectors and pulled out the TVs and cable used for the morning announcements. As a result they've gone back to the "Grease" format of reading 6-8 minutes of text over the PA and,( surprise,surprise) not too many people pay attention.
I'm thinking that if we created a simple format of recording a video of the announcements and uploading them to a site that we would be better serving the community.
I'm told our server can't handle 100 or so classrooms trying to access a video stored there. Is there an external solution (e.g. drop box or ???) that video could be uploaded to everyday and teachers could access at any point in that period? Obviously, cost is an issue, but what would we be looking at?
Every classroom has access to the internet and a projector already.
