Final Project: Reflection

Over Thanksgiving break I finished the final part of my project, the audio/visual portion of the project. I had planned to have someone narrate a story and make some sort of a slideshow of the pictures from the story. I was somewhat worried about this portion but it turned out to be the same as the other portions. My sister read the story and I recorded her with the same recorder on my computer that I used for the audio portion. Then I took some photos of the book. This turned out to be harder than putting it all together. I think it was mostly due to my camera. I used the Windows photo editor to fix the pictures. I never really knew how awesome this program was until I used it for this project. It's awesome.

I put the two parts together using Windows Movie Maker again and it worked out just as well as the other parts of the project. I think overall the project was simpler than I thought. I had expected to have to get help with it but I really didn't find the programs that difficult to use. I think the harder part was using the camera or voice recorder. In every situation, the editing was the easiest part of the process. In addition, I was surprised at how well it came out. I'm sure someone with more knowledge and skill could do better but I'm really impressed with what I've managed to create. I'm hoping to post the videos on this blog after I finish this post. Wish me luck!
