Video Essay!
So, yesterday, i worked on my video essay. I thought that it would be due today, so i made sure i got it done before then. But i checked Facbook, last night, when i was DONE with my video essay, and i found out, that it's going to be due on Monday. Like really? But at least it's done. So, yesterday when i was doing my essay, i locked myself in my room, so no one would interrupt my video. I set up the tripod, and the chair. I had to ask for a camera, but found out that we actually have a Flip camera, so i'm like "Okay i'll use that." The thing is, it was completely dead. And it takes FOREVER to get it fully charged. I charged it for about two hours, so the battery wasn't completely full, but i needed to use it. So i stuck the camera on the tripod, sat on the chair, and practiced what i was gonna say. When i got it, i video taped myself like 4 times. Each time, something was wrong, like i was off center, i was too soft, or i kept stuttering. I was really nervous, cause i didn't want anyone watching me, and i was scared to see what it would look like in class >__< The camera has also been giving me problems. THE CAMERA DIED ON ME! In the middle of a GOOD video, it cut off, and shut off. That happened like twice! So i had to re charge it. When i was satisfied with the video i did, i had to watch it to make sure it was good. And what happens then, you ask?? The camera flickers, and the screen turns completely green. So i'm just sitting there in the chair, going "What happened?!" I was so confused!! I think it was cause, while it was charging, my brother came in the room, going "Where's the Flip?! Where's the Flip?!" He spots it, and yanks it right out of the computer without even ejecting it safely. He needed it for his "special video game". To take a picture of his score or something, i don't know. So i plugged it pack in, and waited little while, then ejected it safely, checked it, and it worked, thankfully. Then, i searched on Google, how to add a video to a powerpoint, and it showed me a video that lead to YouTube, a video called "How to Add a Video to Your Powerpoint For Dummies" or something like that. I just followed that video, and voila! Here's my video essay for you guys!
