Thing 19 - Digital Storytelling

During thing 19 we looked at tools to create videos. This was a fun thing to work on! I used iMovie to create my video. I felt that this program was very user friendly. I had never used it before and found it very easy to navigate. Here is a picture of the storyboard:

I am not sure yet how I would incorporate this into the band room setting. We cannot fit in a computer lab to work on a project that would involve the use of a computer. If we did have access to computers a couple of ideas that I thought might work would be to have the students create a video to share with the class that is about them. Like what there hobbies are and things that they are interested in. I think this would be a fun way for students to get to know each other. Another idea I had was to have a group of students take pictures and videos of use preparing for various performances and then they could put together a video that we could share on the website. These are just a couple of ideas that I have had, and always, I will be continuing to look for more ways to use this tool. I know that I will be using it more for my own personal use as well.
