A: If the attorney would like a recording of the deposition and there is no videographer scheduled, we recommend you ask them to reach out to your local calendar team to schedule a videographer or to contact the calendar team directly on the attorney’s behalf. You should not record the proceeding yourself under any circumstances as further described below.

The first of which is so that no one else has the capability to record directly through Zoom. You might think that’s because we don’t want anyone recording the deposition without ordering a copy of the video, but there are much more important logical and legal reasons involved.

Again, if the attorney would like a recording of the deposition and there is no videographer scheduled, we recommend you ask them to reach out to your local calendar team to schedule a videographer or to contact the calendar team directly on the attorney’s behalf. A videographer will announce the full case information at the beginning, go on and off the record when told, designate times for being on and off the record, and also closely monitor the audio to make sure everything is clear and audible on the final video product. They also have the equipment to only record the witness, just as an in-person video would be handled. A video from a remote video deposition will present in trial exactly as an in-person video deposition would present.
Our client is most certainly looking for a professional, admissible, and quality product to present to a jury at trial, and that can only be provided by a well-trained, professional, legal videographer.
