7P1-Video Project

Using iMovie, an iPad, Google images, and a microphone I created this video because German shepherds are my favorite dog breed. I also chose to create this video because German Shepherds are very smart. Finally, I decided to make this video about German Shepherds because they will protect you and will be loyal.

During this process, I learned how to use iMovie and how to make a video. I also learned how to add sound effects and background music during this project. Finally, I learned how to add titles and how to change the transitions.

The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Creative Communicator because I created a original video for my project. My project also ties to Digital Citizen because I used copyright free images in my project. Last but not least, my project ties to Global Collaborator because I created a video that will be shared with the world.

A challenge I overcame on this project was figuring out how to move sound effects and soundtracks. I was able to do overcome it by asking a classmate for help. Another challenge I overcame was learning how to put my video into my website. I was able to overcome that challenge by watching videos that Mr. Renner posted.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change the images and use pictures of my own German Shepherd instead. The reason why I would change it is because it is more personalized to me. Also, the pictures would all be of the same dog not like my project where they were all different dogs.

Hastings High School Career and Technical Education Program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, Marketing.  My project connects to the Digital Multimedia CTE program at Hastings High School.  My project connects to careers in video editing because they edit videos, add special effects, and music like I did in my project. Another career that my project connects with is Digital Media Photographer because they use pictures to tell as story like how I used pictures in my project to show why German Shepherds are the best dog breed.
