Videoblogging

A couple of days ago I downloaded PhotoStory 3. I loved Tere's video on Piodao and I thought I could do something similar with some holiday photos- I am also thinking of getting my students to use these tools to create a short video of our school and add it to our Sixth grade blog.

It all ran smoothly at first. I managed to create the video, added music to it, showed it to my husband and he liked it as well. However, when I tried to upload it to Geocities I kept receiving an error message "the document contains no data". I tried several times, even created a new webpage with Tripod - same error. I was going to wait until the chat with Michael Coghlan later today and see if I could find out what was wrong.But this afternoon, while chatting to Bettina, she directed me to a link in her blog which contains to a nice tutorial on videoblogging by Michael Verdi. I have followed the steps suggested there of opening an account with Internet Archive , downloading ccPublisher tool, etc. This time I managed to upload the video. I just have to wait until tomorrow till the Internet archive curator aproves it and then it will be available to download and hopefully to edit my blog pointing to it. Thank you Bettina, thank you M. Verdi for taking the time to create such tutorials, thank you Bee for helping me get the audio right.

Ale,
This is cool. Things rarely work out as they're supposed to with computers and Internet. I'll give it a try some time. Thanks for posting the link to the tutorial.
 
Ale,
can you say more about the software you downloaded? What is PhotoStory 3, and where did you get it, and what do you think of it?
 
Gee, this is very useful. Thanks, Ale, for sharing it with us.
