Learn Baby Sign!

I haven't blogged in a while as I've been focused on my Learning Program for the other class, and of course going to class. But I finally got my video tutorial uploaded. Hope you enjoy it.



I'm not overly thrilled with the quality of the video...somewhere along the line it got pretty lossy, and I'm not quite sure where, but I'll work on that. It was actually pretty simple to film, but I learned some good tips for using Windows Movie Maker.

1. Clip, clip, clip, clip. Clip wherever you feel necessary, before and after mistakes, between scenes, between sentences, wherever it makes sense. You can then move things around, delete or duplicate as needed.
2. Transitions often shorten your video. Think about this before narrating a whole video. Adding audio, unless you are editing the video to match the music, makes more sense after you've figured out your transitions.
3. The "Narrate Video" option works like a charm if you need to do a voice-over. Just be sure you are working in a quiet area and can keep yourself quiet when you need silence, as it can only handle one overall track.
