Trudging Through...

So it is officially almost the end of the semester and I am as tired as ever. Having recently realized that I have blogged nowhere near enough, I am making a last chance attempt at recovering my grade. I have worked so hard in this class (iMovie, in particular) and would hate to receive a less than stellar grade just because of my blogging habit (or lack thereof).

Tracie and I spent an entire day over the break trying to sift through everything that we experienced at the NYSCATE conference. After almost 8 hours of work, we have only partially completed 2 out of 7 pages. We tried to upload a Windows Movie Maker file of the interviews that we conducted while at the conference, but after a very long time of attempted uploading, we gave up. The file was not very large (only about 4 minutes), so why would this happen? Is it possibly a flaw with wmm? I used iMovie to do our falls movie, so I am a complete novice when it comes to wmm. Any suggestions? As of now, we are just going to use iMovie to try to overcome this obstacle.

What program are you using to make your site? I am using freewebs and I had trouble uploading a WMM file (although I believe it was due to file size). I paid the five bucks for the premium version and it was no problem - also there are no ads. I guess this is only helpful if you're using freewebs. Looking forward to hearing about your experience.

Hi Sarah,

We are using googlepages for this website, so I don't know if that is why. Tracie and I are in the mac lab today and are going to do our movie in iMovie so we can compress and put in Quicktime. We'll see...I'll keep you posted.

P.S. I love seeing you at IHS, you always make me smile! :)
