Now you have taken pictures and had a chance to look at the pictures that you took.
Was it as easy/hard as you thought it would be? I noticed several of you had problems with framing your picture correctly and with people moving when you took the shot. I also noticed that you didn't have problems with the light through windows that we had discussed, which is good.
Now you have to select ten of your photos (or the others photos if you want) and put them into a video slideshow using Photostory. What so you plan to have as the theme for your video? You are limited because we are just using pictures from Monday at school, but are doing on friends, the school, what?

Taking Pictures
Today you learned about the digital camera and had your first opportunity to experiment with cameras here in class. While many of you have used a camera before I doubt that you every learned all the different features on the camera. Did you learn anything new about the camera?
You also practiced taking pictures of each other while changing any settings on the camera. Was there any special set up for the camera that you liked the most?
Next week you will be going out into the school to take pictures. Some of these will be used to make the yearbook. Think about what things you would like to photograph during the 1st semester. Make a list of about five things you would want to photograph the most.

Starting a New School Year
Welcome to the new school year. This year I have split this class' blog from the other 8th grade class and it will be strictly about the video class. I also plan to have weekly posts with student comments. Speaking of which here is the first post for this school year:
Now that you have heard my general introduction to Video class I would like for you to think about what we will be doing in class. What do you think you will like the most about the class? Will you be more nervous about being behind the camera or in front of the camera? What kind of videos would you like to be able to do by the end of the semester?
