Creating the Film: May 13, 2019

Focus: What techniques can we use to create the film?

1. Warming up with our final three good things and a simple yet effective film technique:

Example #1: Supersize Me

2. Giving you time to gather images, music, and videos

Here are helpful ideas:

• MUSIC: Google search a website that converts youtube music videos to MP3s (this is an easy way to get music for your film).

• VIDEO: Google search a website that converts youtube videos into videos (MP4s) you can use in your film.

• KEEP TRACK OF ALL WEBSITES USED.

• If your film will be five minutes or less (or you're willing to pay), try www.wevideo.com; for the free version, you need to cap your video to 5 minutes.

• If you have a Mac, use iMovie.

• If you have a laptop with Windows and your film will be longer than five minutes, try Movie Maker.
