Creating DVD’s 101<\/h2>\n

Movie making and creating dvd’s is not as easy as the guide books and help sheets make it sound. I realized through this process the importance of understanding the words. I found myself trying to decipher the meaning for some of the words and rereading several times as I puzzled through the process.<\/p>\n

After many hours at this, I transferred photos from my cottage collection into iMovie, figured out how to add a background sound file (drag and drop!) and then exported the file into iDVD. There I was puzzled by the drop zone and adding menu text. Deciphering again, I finally created a three item dvd menu with selections to view. Exporting and burning to dvd was the easy but time consuming part. \u00a0Process complete! Time to celebrate my accomplishment by sharing the finished results.<\/p>\n

Maybe it’s time to take it to You Tube?!<\/p>\n

As I was working through this process, I kept thinking about how movies and dvd’s can be integrated into digital learning and teaching. How can educators harness the power of this technology and create items that are interesting, informative and have educational value in a way that is efficient and not time consuming? I came across some interesting video clips about how to video yourself and make the product effective. These four videos, produced by Mark Joyella, present some valuable tips on how to make sure your clip of yourself is the best it can be. We talk in front of the class all the time. But talking in front of the camera is very different. These videos focus on those who may be coaching or mentoring others, but are certainly applicable to work as an educator creating online content. We need to become as comfortable in front of the camera as we are in front of our students.<\/p>\n
