Movie Podcast

1. Upload your slideshow as a movie to your blog posting. 

2. What tools and techniques did you use to create your podcast?
I used Garage Band to make this podcast. I used the setting Female Narrator Noisy to record my voice. I resized photos to make them fit the screen available. 

3.  How could you use a project like this in other classes?
I could you this to make presentations in other class for projects. I could use it review a book in a literature class. 

4.  In the “real world,” how could podcast projects be used (In what careers/businesses, etc.)?
You could use it to record an audio book. I could be used to send out an announcement. 

5.  In this project, what did you get good at doing?
I got good at making my photos clear and the right size. I can now insert music and other clips behind my voice.

6. What was the most difficult part of the assignment?
This most difficult part was recording my voice and cropping it. Some parts of my voice would cut off when I bumped to clips together. 

7. How did your project use the transformative property of borrowed images, music, and information to comply with the Copyright Law of 1976? 

I cut the sound clips I got so they were something new. The pictures were resized. I reworded the information I got into my own words. 

8.  Would you do a project like this on your own?  
I might do a project like this on my own. If I wanted to organize my thoughts on a movie I could use this. If I had more time I might do one for fun.

9. If you were going to make any changes/improvements on your podcast what would it/they be?  ...and why?
I would increase the volume on my movie sound clips. They were hard to hear at points, and they were really good clips, so I wish my audience could've heard them better.
