Video Recording Requirements

1. Recording device: A high-quality audio-visual recording device with enough storage for your performance (eg a good-quality mobile phone, tablet, laptop or video camera). Please keep the device stable during recording. In the exams, the candidates' own ability to perform audibly and clearly is assessed. For this reason, external microphones must not be used.

2. In the exam, candidates must work through their tasks in the order in which they are listed in the syllabus.

3. Reflective response: The candidate should respond to the questions by announcing each one in turn followed by their response. Alternatively, a teacher/caregiver/ another student can ask the candidate the questions to facilitate their response.

4. Candidates need to expose their whole body in the camera, and keep the performance space bright and clear, and the background quiet and not noisy.

5. All performances must be submitted as one continual performance (this includes all pieces and any key skills tasks such as sight-reading, and the reflective response). Start the recording before your first piece, and do not stop or pause the video until you have completed all parts of the assessment. Any evidence of editing will result in a syllabus infringement and your exam will not be assessed.

6. Audio and video must be recorded simultaneously and no pre- or post-production techniques should be applied to the video.

7. You may not enter the same performance video for the same exam more than once, unless Trinity requires you to resubmit your video (eg for technical reasons). You may not share your performance video on social media, or use it for any other exam entries, either with Trinity College London or any other exam board.

8. Candidates must send the video to the email address of the organizing committee at trinity@seedasdan.org at least 3 days before the exam date. The subject of the email must be "Candidate's Name + Exam Grade".
