Mixed Digital Media Critique (MDMC)
Hello everyone,
Below are links to my MDMC posting on the three web 2.0 tools I can use to edit audio, still images and videos.
For audio I used Vocaroo which an online based audio recording tool that enables you to share your audio in different file format using different media forum. Take a look at this link: Audio media
For still images, I used free online photo editor and its also web based but easy to use and navigate. Use the link to get to know more: Still photo editor
Video editing can be tricky at times when its not well done . I used Proshow web; which is an online video editing tool that has an option of upgrading to a paid premium that gives you more tools. however there is a basic tool that is free. Use the link to know more: online Video editing tool

Hi Theo! Really enjoyed watching your assessment of the Photo Editor. This tool definitely comes in handy for this class and it has a lot more features than I anticipated, like adding text to photos and clipart. The most important aspect for me was being able to save the file in a variety of formats. Usually when I am editing pictures this is the biggest challenge for me. Thank You!
ReplyDeleteTheo,
ReplyDeleteNice work on your critiques.
I like what you said about the use of Vocaroo® for students. You are right an easy to use tool like this could allow students to make audio reports. This could really help some students who are challenged with typing or writing and would make learning fun. One thing I noticed, you were using Vocaroo within the screencast. You did not show, but is Vocaroo able to screen show websites, photo collages? This would make it a terrific tool for K-12 students. You also mentioned about not being able to save finished work on the computer. I have noticed this is common on many free software packages. But the sharing interface should help a student to turn in an assignment, so that would work just fine. A good tool…
I looked at FreeOnlinePhotoEditor® when I started this course. It is a simple tool to use. I actually selected Pixlr® for my photo work in this class because I liked the user interface better. FreeOnlinePhotoEditor has all the features to get you started. Again it would be a convenient tool for a student. Just need to have on-line access as you say.
I was not able to open your critique of Proshow®. Not sure why. Says YouTube does not exist.
Again…good work!!!!

I have really enjoyed using vocaroo. It is really a very easy site to use and makes voice recording exceptionally straightforward. I also appreciate that I don't need to log in or create an account. I understand that sometimes that is easier to keep past information. Yet, many students are just looking for a web tool to quickly complete an assignment and they don't want to have to log in and create an account for something that they may not use repeatedly. At any rate, well done and while I didn't critique vocaroo as a part of my overall assignment, I did use it so that I could create a file to incorporate in one of my critiques. I think that just adds to the concept that it is a very user friendly app.
