From the readings this week I found the article “9 Insider Tips for Creating a Killer Explainer Video,” was helpful to help me think of how I will organize my video, what content to include, what visuals to use and the theme I would want to use. At first I thought my video would be me talking about capstone with some visuals of a classroom and students being super engaged in their work while they use technology. I think I might do that but what if I do create some sort of voice over of me but maybe have my students be part of the voice over? They are the ones doing the learning in my classroom. One more thing that got my attention in that article was to have fun with my video. As I brainstormed on how my final would be it seemed boring to me and not reflective on who I am and my personality. So I hope I can make it entertaining and not have a monotone voice. But then again, how the heck do I create a video like that? How will I be able to make it funny or engaging while I keep it professional and getting my message across? That’s my dilemma right now.

One of the things that concerns me the most is if what I create will keep my viewers’ attention and also create curiosity and interest amongst my viewers that will make them want to explore and learn from my capstone. So far the most comfortable Web 2.0 tool that I use is Screencastify. I have used it quite a bit this new school year as I have experimented with flipped teaching. Therefore I consider myself average when creating videos through Screencastify. But then again I am not sure that this tool can really help me with what I mentioned earlier of having my audience engaged and wanting more. I have used Adobe Spark and it seems more intriguing and modern. The only issue that I have is will the options it provides me with if it will be what I envision for my video to be. I think at this point I really don’t want to learn how to use a new tool for my video because the amount of work we have to do for this program and let alone our professions. But I am willing to leave some options open for a bit.
