UPDATE: Instead of adding to the Multimedia page, please just post your unedited videos as a post, marking the categories “Dante Adela video” and “Established and Fringe Art.” You can see my video post here.
Sorry for the change of plans, but I think it’ll be easier if we did it this way. If you have questions, just email me.
I’ve created a new page, Multimedia, on which I’ve embedded Youtube videos of Thursday’s class with Dante Adela. You can access Multimedia on the top menubar of our website.
If you captured video footage that day with a flipcam or another device, I’d like to invite you to share your unedited videos with the rest of us by creating a Youtube video and embedding it on the page.
Since you have the option of responding to this week’s assignment in video form, this will give you a chance to create your own videos using iMovie. The point of sharing our unedited footage on the Multimedia page is so that you can draw from each other’s work in order to create your own. Of course you want to make sure to credit the camera person at the end of your video like the way you see in movies. So, if you’re embedding your youtube videos, be sure to indicate clearly that you are the creator of this video footage, as I’ve done on the Multimedia page. Please try and upload your videos ASAP so people have time to work on creating their videos.
I’ve created a set of tutorials on the various steps you’ll need to complete to do this:
How to publish your video from FlipShare to Youtube
You might also realize that in order to edit your flipcam video files on iMovie, you will need to convert your files. Here’s how:
How to convert .avi video files from your Flip Video camcorder to .mp4 files
Here’s how you can download video files shot by others (please always remember to attribute work by others that you’re using):
How to extract video files from the web
All these tutorials are published on the Technology Tutorials page.
You should have learned or will learn a few tricks on iMovie at Tech Fair. But if you need extra help, I will be keeping office hours on Monday, from 10-4. Please stop by to see me if you need help. I’m also happy to discuss possibilities for your group projects as well.
