Obesity Video

Finally, after much heartbreak and disaster, my tech task video is ready for its unveiling.  I’ve learned to love and hate Windows Movie Maker, and it seems to feel the same way about me.  I started this project on a different computer, but all of a sudden Movie Maker decided it didn’t want to publish my project into a video.  After several hours of frustration and useless attempts at solving the problem, I gave in and switched to my other computer- which meant transfering all my files.  No easy task, since I don’t have a disk burner in my other computer.  So I uploaded everything in bits and pieces to blip.tv, then used a downloader add-on to put them back on my computer.  So now I was set to try again.  One new program that I used while making this was Frameshots.  I used it to dissect a simple clip of Domokun dancing into 10 frames, then I took each frame into Paint and added dumbbells.  So now, Domokun is lifting weights- I was really happy with the way it turned out.  I hope everyone enjoys my little video; it follows with the theme of my final project, but it’s meant to be humorous.  My sources were slightly obscure though, so I don’t know how many people will recognize them.  Either way, I think it turned out okay, despite all the trouble Movie Maker gave me.  So here it is!

    Love the video April, well done. How did you manage to get these clips into microsoft movie maker? I think it is very well done and good job with the credits at the end. We did a video that took a lot of editing but I am still curious about how you did yours! Email me back if you can! Tahnks and good work!
