The default iPhone camera settings will record video in high definition and create extremely large file sizes. This is not necessary for edTPA requirements and many students encounter problems while transferring and uploading these large files. Students should use these recommended settings to avoid file transfer problems:
Go to Settings –> Camera
Select Formats = Most Compatible
Go back to Camera, select Record Video = 720p at 30 fps
This will change the settings to record video in a format that produces the smallest file size possible on iPhone.
NOTE: The video files will likely still need to be compressed prior to submission, this setting change just makes the process easier.
