EDLD 5363- Week 1

Well, this class has started off with a bang, and I love it. I did not know I would like playing with storyboards and narration, but I do. I have learned so much just this week and am really looking forward to more. Today I helped a girl at work with her school. I showed her how to put illustrations into her papers with GoogleDoc. She thought I was a genius!
I have enjoyed telling my story about my house. The hardest part was sqeezing it down to 2 minutes. I have hundreds of pictures and stories about that house. Each time I thought of something additional I would like to add, I had to cut somewhere. It is an eye opener what a big job all editors have. I thought the difficult part would be getting the raw footage, but in reality, that is the easy part.
I have enjoyed this project so much, I believe I will go back and redo my video after this class to include more pictures and narration. I have always wanted to document my project, but have never done anything with it.   Know I know how to incorporate the pictures into a slideshow with narration; I plan to improve what I started. I hope next week is as much fun as this week!

I was an interior design major before I changed to business. I have always loved old houses, and recently found out I lived in a house similar to the house I moved when I was a toddler. What did your family think of this project? They thought I was not operating on all cylinders. One daughter told me that you do not buy and old house like and antique and stick it in your backyard. Did you know what you were getting into? I had a friend that had moved two houses together, and I loved her house. I did not know the expense would be so much. Part of that was due to the fact Hurricane Ike came through and construction costs skyrocketed. Did you have any time where yo...

EDLD 5363 Web Conference December 15, 2011 Reflection

     Tonight’s conference was a little shorter for me than the last. It may be because I was so distracted by the web cam not working. It was on, but it would not come up in the class. I understand it may be because of I need flash, but it has always worked before. Because I kept messing with flash and the camera, I am afraid I missed some of the discussion. I was even kicked out of the conference once and had to log back on and wait to get it in. I guess all these things are kinks in a technology that will be ironed out as time goes on, and there are always growing pains as there is progress.        The conference was kind of an overview of what should already be done and what to look forward to in the future.   I did not have any real questions, but enjoyed hearing Dr. Abernathy assure us that she was there to help us if we needed her. I believe this has been my favorite class so far. It has not been high stress and it is something I w...
