In this time I am going to work my hardest to finish my script and maybe even start recording the voice over for my video. In my video I am going to add a comparison for each tasks required to make the poster between the three different software. I have already decided to recommend Adobe Indesign to the audience because its the way I find that works best for creating the poster. Using Sony Vegas Pro 9 is also quite easy to create my video as there are all the features I need in it and it also has a wide range of effects to make my video much more interesting.

The intro video

This is the introduction to my presentation . I used Prezi to create a presentation then downloaded it to my computer. While playing it I used camstudio to record so it can play automatically as a video. This was all very simple as the software were very easy to use and especially cam studio recorded any area you wanted to record

Today we have only got a short time left to finish our video. I am going to continue working on my script and also video. My plan is to make a video with the comparison of the three different software. I would also then work on my script so I can have a voice over on the video. As I don't have much time left I cannot work with the green screen or maybe I will at home. I have also tried out using Muvizu but found out it takes a long time for downloading and not really necessary for my video. I mainly need graphic works and especially many camstudio clips of examples of how each software works.

Today I have downloaded the introduction to my video. I made it through Prezi and then downloaded it in a winzip file on to my computer. At first I had problems opening the video but soon learnt that it was because I still had the connection between prezi and the video. I broke the connection by extracting the video files all together on to my drive. Then when I played the video I recored it with cam studio so it can play automatically during the presentation. This video then was put on to Sony Vegas pro 9.0. From here I can put soundtracks, more video effects etc. I found prezi quite easy to use as you can download it easily and then put it in video presentations

Today I am going to experiment quite a bit with Sony Vegas trying out as many ways to present as possible. Also try to a whole range of effects from this video program to make the presentation more interesting. For my presentation I have right now been thinking to make a prezi presentation then record it through screen cam. This is then put on to sony vegas and edited maybe with more effects. Then maybe I could also add a voice over or if not maybe even use the green screen to help on the video. Webcam in the corner while the video is playing maybe an another idea. However before doing all this I have to learn how to do it.

10th September planning for presentation

I have decided today and also last week to recommend the software Adobe Indesign. To present this I have decided to use two different softwares so far. One of them is Prezi which similar to a mind map type of format but makes the presentation interesting and also grabs the audience's attention I am planning to give a screen cam of using adobe indesign to create a poster. I have also decided to create a video with me either speaking or using a webcam in the corner to present it. The softwares I am going to use is Sony Vegas and also Adobe soundforge
