Reflection:
This time I used iMovie and I liked it so much more. I still feel like I still have a lot to learn about the program, but in just a few hours, I turned out a much higher quality video than the one I made with Movie Maker. Although, this video was far less complicated to create. I only had one song, two kinds of transitions and the same pan movement for each picture. This is partly because the tone of the video necessitated a simple design, but also because I learned from last time that simple is better. I was worried that it would be difficult to insert an audio recordings over a song and then add a video on the end, but it wasn’t. The most difficult thing was timing the slides to the voice over, but I think it worked out well!
