Storyboard and videoclip for a research

In this activity we had to carry out the second part of the cooperative project based on animals topic. The members of the group are Marina Goizueta, Teresa Martín, Laura Pérez, Sara Rodríguez, María Collado and me, Guillero Lagarejos.

This activity is divided into two sub activities: A storyboard to plan a video to carry out a research and the videoclip itself.

Storyboard:
To make our Video Planning we used Storyboard That, which is a very simple tool to make comics. It offers a great amount of resources for you to develop your ideas and create stories related to any topic you wish.

Here is the link to the comic:

Videoclip:
To design our videoclip for the animals research we used Sony Vegas Pro, an awesome tool that allowes us to create, design, modify any video to make it much more attractive. You can customize any feature and detail related to the video. The only disadvantage could be that it is not a free online tool, but the results are just fantastic.



Furthermore, we published this entry on the ESL Times blog, so we inmidiately became reporters and received a badge.

My e-project prototype video clip

Hello everybody!

I would like to show you my e-project design. It will be about the animals and it is intended for third graders although it could be adapted to other levels.

The main objective is to use interactive resources such edited videos and online games where children will be encouraged to learn about the topic and be engaged with the classes.

Here you have the e-project outline draft for those who might want to know more about the project: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ag3Pu0OhWQbaM9qSiW5rgyjd9wzR3JghzOjGoZ-9Otk/edit?usp=sharing

Moreover, I created a video where I recorded myself in order to show the project and highlight all the attractive aspects of it. I wanted to make a realistic project that could be implemented in a real present class.

This video has helped me to get some more confidence for recording myself and I am sure that I will be prepared for coming flipped classes.

To edit the video I used Sony Vegas Pro. It is a fantastic tool although it is not available a free version.

Here you have the video clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7-hFUXRQIk

Thank you very much,

Best

INTRODUCTION VIDEO

A first step to get into the ICT world is making an introduction of yourself, and a video is possibly the best option to share all the information you want the rest to know.

Regarding my personal introduction I chose Pow Toon to make my create an attractive video where I could show some interesting things about me. Pow Toon is a web tool that provide us with a lot of resources and different ways to convey the same message.
You can use images, music, videos and attractive animations. Moreover,  you have several templates which adapt perfectly to the presentation style you want to show.
Although it could seem too sophisticated it is actually really easy to follow and you constantly receive tips, clues and tutorials to make the presentation exactly as you imagined before.
Apart from logistics, Pow Toon allowes us to export the video to either You Tube or Vimeo, great platforms for publishing any video.
To summarize, I recommend you to use this tool as soon as you have the chance to show something important to relatives, friends, colleagues or students.
