Last entry of the course

Hello everyone!!! Today is my last entry, FOR THE MOMENT! To summarize everything that I have learned during all this time I have created a presentation and added my audio in order to explain everything correctly and clearly. The tools used for this last project had been Canva (I LOVE IT!), my Iphone's "Audio Recording" tool and Imovie, an app that comes with Apple device. And last but not least I uploaded to Youtube so everyone can see it.

I hope you enjoy it :)

AuPair experience

Hello again!

It looks like today is the official video day jajaj.

In this post I am going to share a video about my AuPair experience. In order to do so, I recorded myself with my phone and latter on I upload my video to Flipgrid. Flipgrid is a website in which you can upload your own video and at the same time see tons of videos from different people around the world, something that I found very interesting, because in that way you can connect to people who are in the other side of the world!

I decided to record my video about my AuPair experience because it is something that has marked me forever, I even have a tattoo to remember about it my whole life!

As I explain in the video, I was an AuPair for almost two years and it had been the best two years of my life. I met a lot of people from different sides of the world, I discovered myself and I travelled like I have never travelled before. So if you are adventurous and like kids it is a fantastic opportunity for you.

Here I leave my video talking about my personal experience. Enjoy!!

Video Project part II

Good morning everyone!!

As I explained in the previous post along with my fantastic colleagues we have been working on a project for Women's day and the final product was a vide.  I already explained how we did the draft, the comic and the scrip. Now is time to show you the result, but first I am going to explain the process for creating it.

First of all, the video starts with a video-call, and in order to record this we used Zoom because the tool itself allows you to record the video. Later on, each one of us appear explaining the different women and something is different with the background, can you guess what? YES! the backgrounds are not our houses but different scenarios according to the women we are talking about. And to do so we used a tool called TC Studio. This tool has its good sides and downsides. The good sides are that it is really easy to use it, it allow you to choose different settings and you can also put the setting to an already recorded video. But the downside is that it only works on an Ipad, so you need one of these or in exchange know someone who owns it.

Once all the clips are recorded and the correct scenario is set it is time to put all the videos together and do magic jajaja. To do so we used Imovie, an app that Apple products have. In here you can put all the videos together, cut them, add them sound effects... it is like paradise!

To finish, we upload the video to a Youtube channel, in this case Paloma's Youtube channel. We decided to upload it just to one channel because in this way it would have more visits.

Finally, HERE IS THE RESULT! I hope you like it :)

Video Project (Part I)

Good morning everybody!! I hope you are enjoying your walks or your time to practice sport these days.

Today I am here to bring you a collaborative work that I have done with my colleagues Maria, Paloma and Tania.  We made a video! Yes, after all this time you would be able to see our faces and more things!

Well, where do I start... I guess from the beginning. First of all, we started drafting and discussing about the topic that we would want to show the world, what is it gonna be about, are we gonna appear in the video, are we gonna do puppets... after several minutes discussing this we decided to make a video related to women in science, as we think it is important to know some of women that make the world how we know it nowadays.

This project will take place during women's day week, that is, if women's da is March 8, this project will take place during the week March 2-8.

We decided that each one of us will take a famous woman and talk about her discoveries and the important things they did to change the world. We took the following ones: Marie Curie, Hedy Lamarr, Frida Kahlo and Dian Fossey.

In order to know how are we going to do the video we did a Story board so people can make an idea on how the video is going to be. And once we decided how the video was going to be we started looking for information about each one of the women and we did a scrip so that each of us well say kind of the same in the same order.

So as to do the Story Board at the beginning we thought of using the tool that has its own name, but to reflect what we had in mind it was a little bit difficult, so what we did was to take the idea from that and using Canva (another amazing tool, if you don't know of its existence, you should check it), Bitmoji (I already talk about in on this post) and Google Docs. We use Bitmoji to characterize ourselves, Canva to do the storyboard and Google Docs to put everything in there.

This is the result of our work,



As I told you before, this is the first part... WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE THE VIDEO, IT WILL BE AMAZING!!

SEE YOU NEXT TIME!
