Check out Digital Commerce Part 1 on Vimeo!!!!

My video (at least the first part) is now on Vimeo!!! I just have to upload the last two parts and then the publishing of my video will be completed by tomorrow..... or the day after that.....HOPEFULLY. Apparentally, if you have your video on a "mobile device" you have to email it so that it can be uploaded to vimeo. And also APPARENTALLY, that email is CONSTANTLY changing, which makes it really hard to upload to Vimeo from my phone, but I'll manage. I think maybe it makes it harder with the fact that I made my PSA video on Splice (an iphone app to create and edit videos), but I'm somewhat glad that I did because it was way easier to fit in a long quote, even though the only background color was black, and even though the background never changed for the words, I'd say it came out pretty good!!!

Update on my progress........

I haven't gotten the email from Vimeo that tells me that my videos have been published, so I'm just waiting on that, but I think I might just try emailing them a third time.......whatever works..........

Reflection for Today

So firstly today we took a quiz on the IB Learner profile, which I am very proud of myself on because I was able to score a 100% on. I was so happy! Anyways, the only thing I'm having trouble with is publishing my video to Vimeo, considering that I made my PSA video on my phone, so I actually had to email it to Vimeo so that it could get it published. Yesterday I was able to do it, but it came out wrong because I accidentally emailed the wrong version, but afterwards I just deleted my account so that the videos would be off the site, and then I made another account. Then I emailed my videos all over again, and now I'm just waiting for my email from Vimeo that verifies that I have actually published my video.
Well that is besides the point. Anyways I want to rate myself a 6 in all the categories except create considering that I wasn't able to publish, but I hope it will be published by the end of today.......Hopefully:)

My Survey

So Far so Good.......

Yesterday I was trying to figure out how to work on my iMovie outside of class. The only substitution I got was an app called Splice. I really liked it because it is so easy to use and its almost exactly like iMovie! I just don't know if I can turn in my movie yet because yesterday I finished it and it was exactly two minutes long. I'm not sure about turning it in though because I didn't use iMovie......

Reflection for Today

Today I did really good. I made more slides and I put in some quotes. I rate myself a 6 in create and evaluate and attitudes in technology. I was very positive and I feel so good about having been able to complete so much. I wish I could work on iMovie from my house. I was a very good reflector when I reflected and evaluated my progress. I do want to become more knowledgeable in iMovie though....

What I Accomplished Today

We have began working on our iMovie, and I think I am actually progressing really well! At first I thought it would be complicated, but after I started, it got easier. I have started by putting in things like the title and the first few slides like What is Digital Commerce and the picture of the digital commerce cycle. I also was able to make the e commerce picture with the e in the basket look a little creepy by adding some sepia color so that the sentence "There are dangers that we don't realize" has more of an impact.

Background Images

So the post right under this post has several images that are possible choices for me to use as background images. I didn't want them to have lots of info or words, because then it would be a little to confusing and distracting.

Pictures For My iMovie

Reflection

Today I took another one of those quizzes on quia on the Design Cycle. I was very disappointed  in myself. The first time I did this test I got a sixty. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that there was a little error in the test, because the last time I took it I put most of the answers the same and I got a 95. In the end I was proud, but I still wished that maybe I had tried hard and gotten a 100.

On the project so far, I feel like I'm on track. I am doing all my work in class (trying my best to not be distracted by Fernie..... Just kidding Fernie!!!) I feel so elated when I saw that I had more tan 3,000 words on my google doc!!! So for now I'm just gonna fix anything I need on my google doc.

What I've Been Up To

            I am working on my PSA video for technology class. Mainly I have been working on the google doc so that next quarter I can begin creating my video. Our google doc is basicaly supposed to be composed of all the parts of the design cycle, kind of like a journal of the process we've been doing. I have finished all of the steps up to create, and after create I will go on to evaluate where I am supposed to think and reflect on how productive I was in each of the steps in the design cycle, and how I could improve my product or my process in creating my product the next time I create a product.
            I think so far I've done really good keeping up with all of my work, but I'm still working on my google doc. I will be updating my blog during the process in which I begin creating the video, so that'll be something to look forward to. I would leave screen shots of my google doc so far, but I'm posting from my acer laptop, so I'm not entirely sure how to do that yet, but I'll put up scree shots as soon as I figure out how to do that.
