Here is my Trailor. It isn't much. I can see that this is a format that I need a great deal of time to work in.

Moving chunks around

This is still very rough. I haven't done anything about citing. As a matter of fact, I've cut some out. What I have done is to reorder it and do some more editing. I know that I need to go back and connect and cite correctly.

However, what do you think of the order? Do you like it? What could I do to make it better? I think I'd like to insert some footage from NCow. Possibly students talking about writing. How hard it is. how they do it. Their process. What writing means to them.

Another Version of Conversations On Writing

I know it is a play on the NCoW, but it also refers to Hemmingway and King's works titled On Writing. I want to add 'Ode to Joy' as the background music and possibly some voice over. I also need to update the credits. I would love suggestions. There are some fascinating people in this (re)mix. I know this work pushes fair use to the max. Let me know what you think about that too.

My Project in the Works!

I've learned how to capture and edit google and youtube videos mixed with my own interviews using Prism Video Converter and Flashlynx. I've changed my project. I decided to work with the interviews I did for Donna's class. I did not use the videos in my work in her class, although I did use quotes from a written transcript I created for a .doc paper.

I want to add some voice over and music, and more footage. How long does it need to be? 10 or 15 Minutes?

This is still a rough project but I'm following my bliss! I would love comments:)

World Digital Library

I heard about this on NPR and saw a clip on the news. Sounds like it may be a very beneficial site. It looks like a huge world effort!

More research. This is a blogspot link, but I didn't know how to bring it in correctly.
