Powerful Tools for Teaching and Learning: Digital Storytelling

Powerful Tools for Teaching and Learning: Digital Storytelling introduces educators to digital storytelling and explores ways to use digital stories to enhance students’ learning experiences. The course is designed to be comprehensive yet fundamental. By comprehensive we mean that the course provides a solid foundation for all of the components of a digital story and illustrates these components with tutorials, example stories, and links to additional readings. The course also provides a hands-on opportunity for learners to create their own digital stories. The course is fundamental because it covers the basic process of creating a digital story starting with just a simple script and as little as one image. This course is intended for K-12 teachers in all disciplines, although it is open to anyone with an interest in digital storytelling. Course participants will use WeVideo (https://www.wevideo.com/), a free web-based video editing program, to create a digital story that could be shared both online and with students in the classroom. Teachers in the state of Texas may be eligible to receive Continuing Professional Education units if they complete the major requirements of the course.

WEEK 4

In Week 4, we will explore how to assemble all of the elements (text, images, narration, and if you choose, music and/or video clips) to create the final version of your digital story and publish it online. You may use any video editing software program of your choice, and you may find a list of software options, Web 2.0 tools, and mobile apps, on the Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling website (http://digitalstorytelling.coe.uh.edu).

In this video, I'm going to demonstrate how to use a new feature

of WeVideo's interface that will make editing still images or

video clips a little bit easier for you.

So, I'm going to, I've got a timeline view open, and

I'm going to come down here to this picture of a map of the United States.

And I'm going to drag it into the timeline.

And then, I'm going to come over to my folder with music, and

I'm going to also pull in, in the audio track, a piece of music.

Now, first thing, I know that for this task, this music is way too long.

So, I'm going to just come over to the end of it, and I'm going to drag it over

this way and have it appear to about there.

So, that's about 25 seconds.

And you can see that as you pull on the right corner or

side, you can see the amount of time that this clip will last.

And my still image is pretty small.

I can just mouse over it and see that, by default, images that you bring in are for

five seconds.

But if I want to see this a little better, I can come over here to the bottom right

and click on the little zoom timeline tool.

And that will give me a little easier time with being able to see what I want.

So, what I want to do is I wan to pull the playhead over here.

And what I want to do is I want to have some effect show up with this

map of the United States.

So, in order to do that, I'm going to select it, and then use my keyboard and

do control-c on a PC.

And then click paste to copy that.

But it says that I can't, I have to move the playhead to an empty area.

So, what I have to do is come over here where I want to paste it, and

then paste it in like that.

And I also will want to move it over a little bit, so

I'll get it close to the other clip.

Now, here's the new feature that has been added in WeVideo.

When I click on this image,

then there's a little tab that shows me some new features.

So, I'm going to click on FX, which stands for special effects.

And when I click on it, it opens up the effects window.

And I'm going to pick black and white.

I was thinking of doing sepia, but

I'll go ahead and click on apply to this clip only.

And even though,it still looks color over here, it's black and white over there.

And if I decided I really wanted to use sepia instead,

I could click like that and you could see that.

So, either way, sepia or black and white.

I kind of like sepia, so I'm going to go with that.

So now, when I move the play head over,

I can see that it goes from sepia to color.

But the new feature that I really like is that

this little bar has been added that lets me fade in and

out these clips very easily without using the rubber band tool.

It automatically shows you the opacity line, and

these little markers have been inserted.

But if I click on video it will automatically fade in that image, and

fade it out.

And then, what I can do is come over to this second one and I can repeat that.

Let me just go over to here.

And clicked on the wrong one.

Sorry, I meant to click on the bar, not FX.

And click on the video tab, and that will then fade that in and out.

So now, let's click away from that to move that out of the way.

And what we'll see when we play this is that it starts off as sepia,

and that will fade out and then the fade in will be to color.

And that's okay, but it's not really what I want.

So, what I'm going to do is go back to the fade options,

and I'm going to make this fade in last more for like three seconds.

And I'm going to have that go very slowly.

And I'm also going to increase this to about 10 seconds.

And you see that I can still do these manually, if I want to.

But I can also click over here and just enter the values, and

that will be a simpler way to do this.

So let's also come over here.

And let's, Click on,

it takes a little practice to be able to get this right.

And I'll have this fade out over a two second period instead of one second.

And so now, let's go back to the beginning, and you can see that it faded

in from black and it's going to fade out slowly, and then fade in slowly to color.

[MUSIC]

And then, fade out to black.

So, I can experiment with doing this manually or using,

have to click on the clip to be able to get these tools.

And this one is the clip editor that lets you do the transforming,

or do animation from there where you can zoom or pan.

And I won't do that for right now.

So, the most important thing is just to know that these tools are available to you

for still images or for video clips.

And then, the last thing I would probably do if I were to actually use this,

is I would want to fade out the audio.

And you don't have those same features for music or audio.

So, I'll have to do this one manually.

I'm guessing that WeVideo will add these features to audio

at some point, but you can just click on the little rubber band, or

the opacity line, and then you can pull that down to fade the music in,

and pull that down to fade the music out.

And one last time, we'll take a look at this.

[MUSIC]

And the music faded in sort of subtly, and it will fade out in just a bit.

[MUSIC]

And again, you can experiment with how much fades in,

or at you would like to add to images, video clips, or audio.

So, that's just a look at a new feature that's been added to the WeVideo

editing interface and the timeline.

So you should try this out and see what your results look like.
