With all things in life from catching a baseball to playing the piano to making a video, practice is the key. Because I don't make many videos and because I have been trying out various video making programs I'm a little slow on the uptake. I have used Moovly, Powtoon, Animoto, and WeVideo. I know how to use them all a little bit. A little bit means that you can miss out on some of the cool things that these programs can do. I started out making my video on Moovly but I just couldn't figure it out. So I moved to Powtoon. Between the last time I used Powtoon and now they changed some things (my biggest gripe against technology - constant change and relearning). Even Powtoon had me stumped. I went to YouTube and learned how to take my Powtoon and put it into WeVideo. The perfect marriage. And someone in our cohort (I think it was Pedro - thank you) said that you could record your voice on the iphone and then email it to yourself. I did this and the quality was better than recording my voice with my computer. Then I decided if I can record my voice with my iphone and email it then I am going to do a video and email it and then put it into my WeVideo. I combined a video from my iphone, and a Powtoon video into WeVideo, I'm a rock star! And then I exported it all to my own YouTube channel!! Now for the practice part. If I don't keep this up I will forget. I'm scared I will forget. I need a new project.
