Week 10: Video on the Web

I do watch videos on the web. I watch the funny ones posted on friend’s blogs and facebook.  I watch the TV shows I would miss working nights on the web. It’s nice I no longer have to tape or record them and get the settings right or miss something if the start time changed for some reason. Flash Forward is a favorite now.

The library I work for has web content staff  who do video. For instruction. For promotions. For finger plays. Yes, finger plays. We have our own early literacy initiative web pages which include finger plays. Like this:

We have just started a YAAC in our branch and the teens want to have a book trailer contest this summer. I’m looking forward to seeing what they come up with and learning from them.

I have a very old digital camera that takes short video, an annoying cat and iMovie.  The cat is getting older so isn’t as active, but have a goal to try to get him to do something and play with the iMovie.

UPDATE: It seems I can’t get the battery to last long enough on my camera to take the video. It could be an 8-10 year old camera, come to think of it. And it takes about 5 seconds of holding down the button to even take a picture. Don’t have a cell phone with a camera. I’m doing 23 Things at home ‘cuz it wasn’t required for my job and don’t have time at work. Can’t take a work camera home. So, can’t finish this one.
