Week Fifteen

This morning I finished editting our YSAA facility tour movie.  It turned out great.  I have never really used movie maker because there has always been a movie making star in my groups.  I realized it isn't that hard to work the movie maker software and that with a little work you can make anything look great!  After graduating, I could use movie maker in the work place.  I could use it to create movies of just about anything.  Check out the movie at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYNAu7OMZVU

Week 14

This week YSAA met to begin the process of editing our facility tour.  The clips saved to our jump drive for some reason will not play.  To fix this next week we decided we would meet with someone from library technical support.  Hopefully by this time next week will be able to show off our movie!  Have a great weekend!

Week Thirteen

This week is just a short week here at Lock Haven.  Today we started filming a YSAA video.  The video will be like a facility tour for one of our regions.  It is the first time we have all been together in a group for over a month.  The filming went well and we are planning to meet again next Monday to edit and finalize our video. 

I hope everyone enjoys their break and has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Week 12

RIP Kim Bentley

Youre friendship and smile will never be forgotten. 

We love you!

Week 11

After editing and making our YSAA video better than ever, we uploaded it to youtube.  Creating my third photostory 3 movie was much easier than I thought it would ever be.  I spent fifteen minutes changing and adding slides and put it together.  I am proud of Brittany and I's work and I wish every other assignment we have still left to do in this tschnology class would be that easy.  The youtube link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YqhhqEBqnk or just watch it here!

Week 10

This week, I finished up both my individual and collaborative Photo Story.  After doing my individual first, I found it much easier to make the YSAA video.  After creating everything on Microsoft Power Point, I had to individually save every slide.  This took forever. I tried to save them all at once, but I ended up not being able to find them anywhere so I went back to saving each slide.  I am happy with the finished product though.  I never thought something like this would be so easy to make and look so good.  Here is my individual video.  If you would like to check out the YSAA video visit our collaborative blog at http://sportsforallandallforsport.blogspot.com/.

Also this week, I worked on data bases and spread sheets.  I was very intimidated before starting this project because I have never used Microsoft Excel.  I thought it was going to be a terrible experience trying to create all kinds of spread sheets and form letters.  Actually once I got the hang of it, I thought it was pretty easy.  The software pretty much does all the work by itself.  All you need to do is plug information into the cells.  I can see how this would be very helpful when working for an organization or a business.  You could spend forever typing out letters to each athlete and cutting and pasting their information.  If you would like to see all I have created on Excel, follow my link called "My Excel Experience" on my website at http://www.student.lhup.edu/erandall/.

Week 9

So far this week has been pretty easy work.  We split up tasks in my group to complete the assignments.  I was back to working on the newsletter and I am proud to say it is finally done.  After figuring out that pages are located in the bottom left corner, I flew through the work!   Here is the finished product!
