Biggest Cyber Camp in Iona!

Hi!
I took this video yesterday at our Cyber Camp, we had 9 kids of all different ages, it was very busy. Take a look at a few things we did. I did a little bit of editing, just to make it presentable. Enjoy!

FYI- I will show you the finished product of the C@P Quilt next week after our last Cyber Camp. Every week we get the kids to draw something they did or liked at the the C@P Site and I put them on a bulletin board, laid out like a quilt, patches and different colours.

Movie Makers Tutorials- Old & New

Hi Everyone,
I found these two videos on youtube.com about creating and editing movies in Windows Movie Maker and Windows Live Movie Maker. I have Live Movie Maker on my computer, so it was good see videos for both. Take a look at them and if you are ever stuck you can look up how to videos on youtube. If you find a really good one please post it here for all of us to see.

Wildlife of Boularderie Week!Cyber Camp!

Hello Everyone,

Last week we had a chance to do a "Wildlife at Boularderie" theme for our weekly cyber camps, and one of my co-workers who helps us us happens to have some animals that he brought with him. After the animals left we had some great volunteers to help us out with a small play. So here is the video enjoy!

Pictures

Thanks for the great pictures Clay! I have added them to the mosaic pictures on the blog!
It is looking better and better haha.

Tip of the Day

When making your videos in Windows Movie Maker save the files you use in the same place so they are easy to find. Once you have used them in your video, do not move them until your video is published as a movie. If moved, they will not load in your video and you will have to do your work all over again.
Happy Filming and Editing!

New Layout & Pictures

The new layout looks great Shannon, very cheery! Here are a few pictures I took for the North Shore Community Heritage Project and my video project:





Feel free to add them to the mosaic if you would like.

Happy Tuesday!!

Hello Everyone,
It is wonderful starting the week on a Tuesday! I thought I would put a post on here about the Mosaics and the videos for vccaps. I sent out the email as promised on Friday, keep that email handy for deadlines and information.
I edited my VCCAPS video today, I think all I need is music and some fine tuning.
Remember the first draft is due Monday, August 8th, to see how everyone is doing.
Good Luck and keep up the great work!

A couple of jokes to end off the week!
