Gradereel

Exam video batch for music teachers

For teachers with many candidates: a saved candidate list, file names from a pattern, a preflight for every video and compression one file after another.

Saved candidates

Names, boards, grades and programmes stay in this browser. Export them as a CSV to keep a copy or open them in a spreadsheet.

No saved candidates yet. Add one, or import a CSV with a Forename, Surname, Instrument, Board and Grade column.

The teacher batch is part of Premium

Premium adds:

  • Compression: shrink a video under the board's limit in your browser, audio copied untouched
  • The teacher batch: a queue of files with names generated from a pattern, checked and compressed one after another
  • A saved candidate list of more than one
  • The printed programme summary for each candidate

How the batch works

Nothing is uploaded. Your video, candidate names and pieces stay in this browser; the checking and the compressing run on your own device.

Save each candidate once: names, instrument, board, grade and the programme. When the videos come in, add them to the queue. Gradereel matches a file to a candidate when the surname is in the file name, and you can change the match. Each video is checked against its own candidate's board, so one queue can hold a performance grade, a digital grade and a recorded exam side by side.

Names come from your pattern, made safe for the board, or from the fixed pattern on the board that has one. Videos over the limit are compressed one after another, each with the sound copied untouched; videos already under it are offered under the new name. One file at a time? Use the video check. The file name guide explains each board's rule.
