EDLD 5363 Week One Assignment Reflection

This week our assignment was to create a personal digital story.  We were given the options of selecting whatever topic we wanted and the ability to use whatever software we wanted to create the video.  I did not know where to start at first because there were just to many possibilities.  I finally decided to create my video from all of the pictures I have taken on my trips to Sicily.  I also decided to use iMovie to make the video because I do not have very much experience with iMovie but I was very familiar with other options such as Photo Story, Movie Maker and Audacity.  I thought this would be a great opportunity to learn something new.  The process was easy enough and iMovie was very easy to work with.  The hardest thing was the narration.  I kept having an echo type effect on everything I recorded.  It took a little time but I was finally able to get rid of it by turning off the voice over enhancement option the was selected by default.

Between looking through all of my photos, finding the right Sicilian folk music, and having a good reason to learn iMovie; I really enjoyed creating the video for this weeks assignment
