This assignment had me record a video highlighting one thing I do every day. I chose to film myself checking my email (while making sure no sensitive information was visible). I was going to film it all on my phone, but I realized that I can’t flip from the front to the back camera while I’m recording a video. So, I recorded myself using my webcam on my computer, then recorded my screen with my phone, then put the two together in Windows Movie Maker. Like browsing Tumblr, this is another thing involving the internet I do every day. The internet has become quite a necessity in our daily lives. Email is extremely important. Here’s my video:

Another great  Video Assignment this comes from the assignment  What Do You Do? this is worth (4 starts). My thinking is that it should be rated about 3 stars but that is just my personal opinion. I guess this is where I tell the story about what I do everyday, I actually think this is what every hopefully dose everyday, they take a shower !!

How did I make the video? well, I used my iphone to video record because it is portable .  I went into my bathroom and the first thing I did was see what 8 sec felt like. So I went into video mode on my phone then the I pressed the record button. I then restaged what I wanted in the video so it would actually look the way I wanted it to. Since I used my phone I was able to access the video through icloud. So I downloaded the video to my computer and I was able to uploaded it to youtube. To uploaded to youtube I had to open youtube in Google. Then I pressed the “upload”  button which is located in the right hand corner. Then I selected the video and dragged it to the open space that read ” Upload video”. I did reset some of the settings as I was saving it like for instance the category in which it was place into  or “What Kind” of video it is.

This is really my most favorite part of the day it either signifies the beginning of the day or a fresh start to a new one. I am so glad that I painted my nails before this one it makes the look like I have really nice feet.

This week we had to do 10 stars of video assignments with at least 4 being of our character. This assignment called what do you do? instructs you to make a video clip (no longer than 8 seconds) of a specific thing you do on a daily basis. It is worth 4 stars. After like an hour of looking through video assignments, I thought this one I could use my character for. For this I simply used my phone to take the video. I really wish I could go back in time and make a female character so I actually could do other assignments, but I am doing the best with what I have. So since Bob is a rancher, he has to put on his cowboy boots every morning before going out on the ranch. This is just a video of him (me) putting on his cowboy (cowgirl) boots before heading out to the ranch. Sorry it isn’t super creative. I literally could not think of anything else. I am not happy how it turned out. I really would have liked to of done something else.

For this video assignment, “What do you do?” I was to record myself doing something I do every day. As such, I decided to record a video of myself skating. I chose to video myself skating because I really like to skate (well most of the time…) and I spend a lot of my time at a rink. If I am not in class or at home, the rink is the place to find me. I strive to do each of my skating elements about seven times a day. So, below is a video clip of one of my jumping elements that is in my program. To complete this assignment I used my phone to video myself jumping, then I uploaded it to youtube so I could embed it here within this post.
This assignment was worth three stars adding to the fulfillment of this week’s ten star requirement.
