My video

This wasnt my first video to make using the Windows movie maker. I had to make a video for ENG 333 and I made a PSA related to zombies and what to do when they invade. It was alot of fun to make up and it was interesting learning how to make a video. I would have to say the difference it is that we were actually taught how to make a video in IT 365 compared to just being shown in ENG 333. I feel that this project would work better for an older group of students for them to make their own and it is a great way to make videos for lessons. Youtube is a great resource, but sometimes the videos they have just arent very good or classroom appropriate. So a teacher can make their own video using the content they are covering and also making it appropriate for their students grade level.

The only thing I had problems with was meeting the length and making my captions and transitions are fit together. The captions sometimes would linger over to the next slide because of transitions so I had to play with it and figure out how to make them end. All in all I really had no other problems making this video. To me, it is kind of like a fancy power point presentation because all my video is just pictures. I would be interested in how to make a video using actual recorded footage. Does it work the same way? How does the sound work out?

The NET standards that can be applied to this topic are


1. Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity. (Gives students the chance to learn and create presentations on their own. Also allows for the teacher to create learning experiences on a level for their students)


2. Design and Develop Digital Age Learning Experiences and Assessments. (using a variety of media types to form a video.)

3. Model Digital Age Work and Learning (Gives students the chance to communicate their points of view through the use of a movie.)
