The group video project was something that I had been looking forward to doing. I was excited about the prospect of learning how to edit video and add sound to a movie that I created. When the video project was explained, it then seemed like a lot of work. The most daunting task was identifying the story we wanted to capture on film. Creating the storyboard helped with mapping the movie and the shots needed to tell the story. Once that had been decided, the filming of the movie went rather well.
MovieMaker was a simple application to learn. It was very easy to edit the video and put the pieces of the movie together. The most difficult part we found was adding the audio to the movie. We struggled a bit with using Audacity. The next time I create a movie I would spend some time learning how to use Audacity to better incorporate music into the video.
In retrospect, the video project was not too difficult to accomplish. As with anything, I am sure that my filming abilities would improve the more I filmed and used the software to edit. It was amazing how long 30-90 seconds could actually be when trying to fill the time with a story captured on film.
