Book Commercials

STEP 1:

1. Click the link below to access the Book Commercial Template: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1fRPtXak-guVXXKIgo6yKLx_GaXwgrhgUZbk4zI6Dh3s/edit?usp=sharing

2. Click File, then click "Make a Copy"

3. Change the name of your slideshow to your name - EX: Frank's Book Commercial

4. Click OK

5. Follow directions on 2nd slide to complete your slideshow :)

6. Adding your book cover picture:

Click on the following link:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1y_mEfiaiV0_Vg11rNB306WIOiokg2mIm?usp=sharing

* Find the picture of your book cover & click on it

* Press down arrow on top of screen to download the picture to your computer

* Go to screen with your slideshow and go to page where you need to insert the picture.

* Click and drag picture from the bottom of your screen into the right spot

(or click Insert, Image, Upload from Computer, Downloads, then find your book cover picture and double click)

*Crop, reposition, and resize the picture to where you would like it

* Copy the picture and then paste onto last page of slideshow also

STEP 2: We are going to start out by watching a few quick videos that give us tips on creating and editing videos: add and erase clips, trim and split clips (we will be using this for audio), and edit clip audio. These and other videos can be found by clicking the ? at the top of your screen for help and support at any time if needed :)

Before you get started on recording, you will need to look through your Book Commercial slideshow and make sure that it is your PERSONAL BEST!!! When you have done this, you will need to get your slideshow approved by Mrs. Wilcox, make any needed corrections, and then you are ready to start the recording process!!!

STEP 3: When you are ready to record:

We are going to click Log In on the top right, and then sign in by clicking on Log in with Google and use our SCHOOL email address: login@myflorence.org (ex. 22wilcoxb@myflorence.org)
Click Allow on the box that pops up
Once in WeVideo!, you will watch the Welcome video that pops up to refresh our memory on how to use WeVideo, and then get started.
You will start your video by clicking "Create New." You will need to upload the JPEG images and drag them into the Main line of your video creation on the dashboard
You can then start working on the rest of your video:
* Add a transition to start the video and throughout the video if you would like
* Add background music
Lastly, you will need to record your voice for the commercial. After recording, you can then re-record if needed, trim the beginning or end of the recording, add another voice recording to the beginning or end if needed.
If you need help along the way, you can ask a friend quietly, or else raise your hand and I will come around to help as I am able!
