APPSMASHING
My favorite project so far has been Appsmashing. The class point up into 2 groups of 5 kids. We each had our own responsibility to create the final project. We started out deciding on a story line for our project. After discussing our options for quite sometime we decided to go with the story where our fellow classmates fall in loved over a subway sandwich and live happily ever after. We took or found 3 pictures to be used during the movie.
The groups 5 divided into 2 people working on music, 2 working on sound effects, and one controlling the iPad with Sonic Pics. Sonic Pics allows you to record yourself talking or singing and adding pictures when you want to go with the story. I chose to work with music because I really enjoy creating songs on the iPad. I chose to create an upbeat song that would be played after the part in the wedding when the characters got married. My group of 5 went into the recording room and we practiced taking turns either playing our music, talking, or using sound effects to create the story. After practicing a few times we started recording. We all worked together well and our story flowed. After a few high fives we realized our iPad guy didn't actually press record. That's okay though cause we just got round of practice left before the real deal. We ran through it one more time while recording and it turned out well. The story is easy to follow and the sound effects and music goes along well with the story line. |
