Creating A Video "All About Kahoot" Using iMovie
This week I created a video about how to use the platform "Kahoot" using iMovie. I got started by downloading iMovie from the app store onto my iPad. I have always heard how it easy and fun it is to create videos using iMovie, so I was excited to get started. There are several ways to make videos using this app. You can use videos you have filmed or create a video with pictures from the camera roll. This part was simple enough, but editing and timing the transitions was a bit challenging. I played around with the app for a couple of hours, and eventually had what I wanted. I did a voice-over recording, explaining the way Kahoot is used in the classroom. I really liked that iMovie allowed me to go back and edit any mistakes I made in my recording, and that there was music that was included. The only downside to using iMovie was that I could not make rolling credits, and maybe this is only true of the iPad version, but I assumed that any movie editing software would have a credit function. In the end I was able to transition to some basic screenshots of the credits. Overall, iMovie created a professional quality video, and even though you have to pay for it on the app store, I think it is well worth it because I feel like I can use it again. Here is my video "All About Kahoot."

Wow! Your video looked like it was professionally done. Great job. One question, I also used Imovie when I created my project, how did you add the credits at the end? I played around with it but I couldn't figure out how to do it. Please let me know. Also, thanks for the step by step on Kahoot; I will definitely be using this my classroom.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the positive feedback! For the credits, I downloaded a word processing app, there are several to choose from, and then I typed in my credits and took a picture of the screen, and inserted the photo into my iMovie project. Hope that helps :)
DeleteWhat a great video! You have a great voice for video and it sounded really professional. I have only used iMovie for little things on my phone...I'll have to look into using it as a high quality, purposeful tool. I enjoy the panning over images and voice-over work of your video and the topic was quite informative. I had never heard of Kahoot and I'll certainly need to look into it before I head into the classroom for good!
