 This is my video for the picture story 2 vs. 1.  Again, I used WeVideo to compile this story. Enjoy!

  I had some great feedback.  Here are a few things that I adjusted: I reduced the music in the background between 5-10% in sections. adjusted my end text adjusted the quote text and made it italicized adjusted the clock image so that way it is consistent with the time I say I replaced the pandemic guidelines graphic with a graphic that is more consistent with the story  I chose to not do the following: I did not change any of the music in the background. A comment was made to have one consistent background song. I wanted to have different songs to reflect the mood or the certain aspect of the story. 

 I have not really sat down and processed my school year yet. This was really my first experience doing that. I have always had this one experience in my mind since it has happened and that is what this story is about.  It was difficult for me to find images that fit well into the story. I first wrote the script and I knew what I wanted, but finding creative common and copyright free images are difficult when you are creating a full length story without your own images.  I used WeVideo to create and edit the entire video.  "My One Goal" By Dmitry Bucklin

In this assignment, I decided to do the story "My One Goal." I have "talked" (I give the answer everyone wants to hear) about teaching during COVID before, but I have never really written anything down. This was an interesting process for me and I really realized that this year brought more emotion for me than I thought it would. I am pretty good at compartmentalizing things.  The first storyboard that you will see is my original. The second one is my new and edited one. I will say that I did not change too much. I took the suggestions that Dr. Howell gave me and adjusted a few of my pictures. Many of my pictures didn't reflect COVID guidelines. I also added a bit more que notes.  ORIGINAL STORYBOARD EDITED STORYBOARD

The Good Life is a short story to give you an image of how I grew up in rural Minnesota. The image is a picture of the farm I grew up on. The sunrise was extra beautiful that day!  I used WeVideo to record and edit my audio. I also used stock media that WeVideo provides. If you are ever interested in learning more about WeVideo, let me know. I would enjoy chatting with you about the program. There is a free version of this, but the media is limited and the time limit of your videos are limited as well. The paid version is not cheap, but well worth the price....especially if you are in a masters program that has you creating a lot of video and audio content! SCRIPT: The Good Life By Dmitry Bucklin The brattle of the chainsaw woke me up. This was not unusual. My father always had the knack for letting me know what day it was by simply roaring up the 25 year old faded orange Stihl chainsaw. Today is Saturday and it was too early! I grew up on a farm, a hobby farm. Here we raised much ...

This audio story was fun to create. I am not a great storyteller and I ALWAY hate listening to myself talk. In this story, you will find out why I HATE spiders. Enjoy! I used WeVideo to record and edit this audio story.
