Hey All,
Video woes for me this week. I had an impacted work week and difficulty trying to complete this on my ipad. For more detailed notes about that, please see below.
Hope the video isn't too long and that you enjoy fireside chats. I don't think it works in Firefox.
Video Mashing Woes:
Thought I would explain where I am at with last week's video--this is
a long list of excuses, but at least you can know I didn't just choose
not to do it.
I stopped by the apple store and bought the
converter to connect the camera to my ipad and updated to ios 6, which
meant I had to back up to the cloud (as I had bee using itunes on my
laptop). So a bunch of new stuff on the ipad. The camera connector
worked, with was good as I had seen various reports about it working and
not. And imovie was then downloaded successfully. So I thought I was all set to go to a meeting in L.A. with my ipad ready to edit video, but turned out I left the ipad at home charging. Oh well.
So after returning I couldn't complete the video by Sunday night.
I am still having trouble finding an app for converting youtube videos to mp4. I downloaded tube downloader, which won't download anything from youtube, but does do
some from vimeo. Then I can load videos to my photo roll, and then I can see
it in imovie. Although some things say they'll only take the audio.
So doing mashups is really trying, as many ideas I have cannot be found or downloaded appropriately.
So that is where I am at. I should have communicated this a bit
sooner, just so you knew what was up. My intention was to edit my video
from last week, as I had stuff I wanted to include that didn't, and I
included stuff that was not the way I was supposed to mash up. But I am
not convinced that I can do that as I can't get the peanuts video which
is pretty critical to my story--as its the trumpet I hear in my head
when I teach by lecturing and not engaging students.
Sorry to be such a pain!
I really like the video you came up with. Your video inspired me to go look up the "Teaching Hope" book. ;-) Sorry you had such a tough time with it.
ReplyDeleteI had some video issues as well. Downloading video from the internet has proved tricky for me. Glad to hear it's difficult for others as well. Thanks for sharing.

I'm not on ipad, but you might try this: MacX YouTube Downloader (Mac OS X/Free) (link in my blog) . It was clean, quick, easy, and gave me both thte vid and a separate audio-only mp, which I won't use. On the mac, ast first I thought it only did the audio, but found the video in another place - I can show you tomorrow (today) in class, if we remember... ;)
ReplyDelete<3 Luke story - thank you for sharing that = why we do what we do!
ReplyDeleteDeb,
ReplyDeleteI loved your video. You have so many inspirations. It was great to see all of that!
Deb- I really enjoyed your video. I thought it was a very good mashup of inspiring things. Sorry it was difficult to get it together but it turned out well!
ReplyDeleteGood job Deb! Putting all those clips, music, text, narration together...very smooth, like a pro!
