My first iMovie Trailer: Creating the Legacy
I had never used iMovie before creating this trailer, but was pleasantly surprised by the functionality of the program. It was relatively simple to upload pictures and edit the text. I wonder if other users are bothered by the pre-set templates, I loved them! For a somewhat non-tech-savvy individual, I was relieved to learn I didn't have to create the trailer from scratch. Also, there was a number of options with a great deal of variety.
I could see this app or program being very useful in a classroom. Once again, looking at these tools from a social studies perspective, I can see a teacher creating a history, geography, or even a current event video that incorporated pictures and videos the students and/or teacher took. It's a great way to personalize a final presentation or showcase the work a class has been doing. I can also see this being a fun project tool to assign to students... Re-enacting anyone? I enjoyed using the iMovie app and would definitely recommend it to friends or coworkers. Let the movie-making begin!
