The fifth assignment that we were required to complete for this semester was use Video Toolbox or Windows Movie Maker to create a video. To successfully complete this assignment there were certain requirements that we had to meet. The minimum requirements for this assignment are as follows:
Create an instructional, promotional, commercial, or business video with Video Toolbox or Windows Movie Maker. You must have at least 2 video clips merge together and one of them has to be captured with your digital camera, digital video camera, or digital camcorder. Alternatively, you can record one of your video clips from your Webcam. The final video must last at least 2 minutes but with no more than 5 minutes. The video must have a text watermark. You may crop, cut, and add audio stream if you prefer.
When finished: Save the final video in one of these formats (AVI, MOV, MPG, MP4, and WMV). Then, upload your video to YouTube and then embed your YouTube video to Assignment 5 Forum of IT 644 Social Network. Also, add your YouTube video to the Videos page of IT 644 Social Network.
For this assignment I chose to use photos and footage from my son’s first year of T-Ball. I chose this because little kids playing baseball is hilarious. As I began to work on this assignment I was torn between using Video Toolbox and Windows Movie Maker. After playing around and experimenting with Video Toolbox I decided to stick to what I knew. This meant I would be using Windows Movie Maker. I uploaded photos and videos from my digital camera to WMM. Once everything was uploaded I added titles and music. After saving the movie I was required to upload it to YouTube. This was the only part of the assignment I had a few complications with but soon discovered I was sleepy and just needed to start fresh. Once I was well rested uploading the movie was easy. Completing this assignment was very simple due to my familiarity with the software. I feel confident that students on any grade level would learn a lot from this type of assignment. I enjoyed completing this assignment and look forward to using it in the near future.

Using Video Toolbox was ok the only thing I had problems with is trying to get my video smaller enough to upload.
ReplyDeleteThis brought back so many memories I can remember those days with my son playing T-Ball. I had so much fun laughing at the players when they were all trying to get that one ball. Look like your son was having fun.
Great job!!
I have enjoyed viewing your assignments because you have found a way to share your family with us. I love baseball and the T-Ballers are so cute to watch. Thanks for sharing.
