Digital Story

02Apr10

Well it took long enough, but the Digital Story video is finally done (HERE) and uploaded to YouTube. Unfortunately there were a few problems, such as the vocal audio only coming out of the right side. The program I ended up using to record, ScreenFlow, exported the video as a 3+ gigabyte file and crashed my computer I don’t know how many times. The video also has a large watermark in the center of the frame. Other than these issues I think the video turned out somewhat decent. The opening and ending music is something I did awhile ago with Garageband. The video focuses on interacting with the online community through Facebook mostly (as that is the current popular networking tool) and details the ease with which one can upload pictures (or videos posted to YouTube) to the internet and then share with friends. Also explained is how to download songs, television shows, and movies from the iTunes Store. Originally I intended to show ChatRoulette, as one can chat randomly with anyone around the world using this unique networking program, but it would not work with either Safari or Firefox. I am doubtful anyone will really watch it but hopefully it answers any questions one would have about these various websites.
