Windows Movie Make Video Software Script for Podcast

First if you do not already have Movie Maker installed on your machine please do so. Type in a Google search of WMM and it will take you to a site where you may download the software for free.

Once installed - open the program. You will see a toolbar at the top of the page, blank video to the left, and your project “workbox” to the right. From the top icon choose new project. If you have any videos or photos you would like to include in the project select the add photos and videos icon.  You then are brought to a place where you can search your computers for saved images and videos for your project. Simply open whatever pictures or videos you wish to add to your movie. For multiple images repeat the process of selecting the add photos and videos icon. There is also a webcam video button which you may select should your machine have a webcam and you wish to record using your webcam.

Each photo or video you add can be customized any way you like. You can make the picture black & white, add different colors, rotate the image, add text to the image, change the effects of the image (how it makes the transition from one photo to another) , and so much more.  You can add captions to the photos as well as add a movie title, credits, director, and everything else that makes this program feel like you are using expensive editing software.

 When you are finished adding your pictures and videos you have the option to add music or narration.  You may search your ITunes account for music to add to your project or you may select from Windows factory music choices. They also included a free music website you may add music from, it only has select music so you may not find exactly what you want there, but it’s free. If you have a microphone connected to your computer you can push the record narration button and record your own personal narration that complements your video or photos. Use or download an application from the app store such as voice recorder. This feature will allow you to trim the audio to correct any errors. If you do not have a microphone but you do possess a Smartphone you can record sound from your phone and email it to yourself. From there you may save the audio to your computer and upload under the add record narration button, choose the add audio feature and you then can select your audio piece and add it your project.

Once you have completed your movie you need to save it. Press the save movie button and you are given the choice of what to title your piece as where to save it on your computer. You also have the option to email the video to anyone as well as add the video to websites such as YouTube, Facebook, and Flickr.  Your newly created video can even be published to the world wide web by selecting the publish movie icon and selecting where you want it to be seen.

my experience creating a personal digital story for EDLD 5363

I used Windows Movie Maker for my story. It was extremely easy to use, nothing hard about selecting what photos to use as well as adding narration and effects. I highly recommend it to anyone needed to put their photos in a fun, video format. It's free! I just downloaded the program and was working on it in minutes!

Adventure story script

Mighty Mud Dash, October 20, 2012- Sam Houston Race Park in Houston, TX.

This was my first mud run or run anything like this! I registered because a few friends were attending and asked me to join them. The pictures from their website looked so fun- why not? The only negative in this was that I did not fully “train” as I should have. I try to do 3 miles on the elliptical each day of the week as well as some ab work but the mud run was more than that! It was only 3 miles, but 3 miles of running, obstacles, mud, and water.  I was not prepared for the mud run, but neither were my friends.  We knew we were in trouble but that did not seem to phase us. The run to the first obstacle felt like it was a few miles- it may have just been nerves or anxiety of what was to come. After the first few mud obstacles I felt like I weighed 20 pounds heavier with the accumulation of mud on my clothing and shoes! We then were running alongside the Sam Houston Pkwy and cars were honking at us as we ran/walked. Some of the obstacles were ropes for climbing, because we were at the back of the pack the ropes were so wet and muddy that it was almost impossible to climb. I made it up most of these but there were a few that I unfortunately had to walk around. The muddy moguls were the hardest (possibly most fun) part of the race. You basically slide into a huge mud/water filled pit then from there climb out using a mud wall. Once you slide into the muddy water you were covered with mud, it was blinding! As you can see from the pictures, I could not see! I made it up 2 hills but had to walk around the other 2 for times’ sake as well as saving my energy for the rest of the run. We then made it out and were onto the next part, climbing a huge mud hill. Once up the hill you were able to stand under sprinklers and wash off, only to have to slide down through the mud again! The next few obstacles were crawling through mud and scaling a few walls. Approaching the finish line was a sea of monkey bars, wet and muddy monkey bars. I walked around those, needless to say. Then the last obstacle between me and the finish line- a huge wall. It had very small steps so it was a bear to climb. I had 3 people that I did not know who helped/boosted me over- I was not going to walk around on the last challenge of the day! I made it over and ran the finish line to receive my mighty mud dash medal.  At the finish line bananas and water were in plentiful fashion for all the racers to enjoy. Of course many pictures were taken by our friends as well as the race staff.  We then had all the mud hosed off my local firefighters using their trucks and hoses!  It was quite an adventurous and muddy day! We have already registered for the next mighty mud dash which is coming up in April 2013. The next day I could barley dress me due to the soreness of the fun I had enjoyed the day before. It took me about 4 days to fully recover from the race but it was worth the pain! I know now to prepare for the race, due a tad bit more training so I will not be in as much pain after!
