Equipment Used to Make Video

I was really low tech.  I knew I wanted to post faces of children, so instead of using the camera to take new photos of children, and having to worry about release forms for parental consent, I opted to search for free photos online. 

I did this on my desktop iMac (running OS X) at home and then used iMovie to create the movie.  I wanted to insert music, but unlike my work laptop, a Dell Inspiron computer, my Mac didn't have any preloaded music that wasn't copyrighted.  So I had to figure out how to go to iTunes and search for some music that seemed to fit.  I purchased a song, and then added that in.  Then I saw all these messages warning me about 3rd party content and copyright issues, so I removed the song.  Then I thought about it and decided I wasn't making any money off of this, so I figured it was okay, and remade the movie with the song.  I saw in the Digital Technology book that he will address this in another chapter. 

So that is the technology I used so far.
