Alyssa's+Digital+Storytelling!

=__The Neighbor Witch!__=

For my digital storytelling project i chose to doa story from when i was little! I wanted to present a video to my students that was age appropriate and easy for young students to enjoy! I also thought my students would enjoy a story that involved myself when i was younger! I hope you enjoy my story!

__**New Learned Skill:**__ Even though i have a mac, i never used Imovie before because i was scared to touch it! It looked so difficult to use and i just chose to not try it! Now that i've used Imovie for this project, i love it! When i would have to make videos before i would just use you tube or powerpoint whcih seemed alot easier to me. Now, i can't wait to use it again!

By using Imovie for the first time, i have learned many things through it! I learned how to use sound effects in a video! The sound effects made my video so much more interesting. I learned how to drag the icon of the sound effect you choose to use to the picture you want it to play under! I will be able to use this skill again because i plan on making many more movies and having sound effects will not only make your presentation more "spiffy" but it will keep your students attention!

I also learned how to fade and cut voice overs. I learned how to do this because i liked some of the sentence I recorded on my video but i did not like the rest. I learned that you can choose where you want to cut it and then voice over that section to pick up where you left off! I will be able to use this again because i am one person that cannot record myself all the way through without laughing so this is a great tool for me!
